hey guys. i'm going big. i am going to be running like 1400rms for now, but want to have the system capable of 2000rms. what amp alternator do i need and what kinda battery/batteries am i looking at? maybe more than one? is there any companies in particular that are better than others? i think i will be running about 10ft of 1/0 guage to a fuse and then 2ft of 4ga to the amp cause the amp will only accept 4ga. any ideas?
