The battery is only there to start your car engine, not to supply current when the car is running. At that time, the battery is in a recharging state. Get smaller amps and go back to the low power system if you can't supply an adequate charging system to power the amplifiers. Otherwise you'll just clip the amps and burn out the coils, and possibly damage the electronics in the car. |

DB Electrical, MCR, and mechman are the best alternator companies out there right now. For batteries there are a lot of good ones but odyssey is what I have found to be the best. Any heavy duty battery other than optima really. |
