car: neon
dack: alpine
amp: memphis mc1500d
Subs: Rockford rfd2112x2
Cap: 1.2

everytime i push it a little hard the subs cut out.the amp is set to 1/4. But i tink it's the voltage dropping below 10V. Please let me know if my hypothesis is properly diagnosted."(can you tell i'm at work.)" [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

With a larger draw system, it is very important you upgrade the factory wiring and electrical system. It is not important for you to have a larger alternater, as the factory one should be adaquate in most cases.

1/0 ga upgrade
Solid new large battery
Electrical system upgrade(factory grounds ect...)

See how that does before spending any serious money. [img]smile.gif[/img]
