So many people make things more complicated when it comes to explaining things. Thank you for making it easy to understand what we need. If you can make one with examples of matching amps to batterys and set ups to batterys that would be even more awesome like a 1500w system or 2000w system with 2 subs + highs and mids .

[@ineedbass1]

Thank you for the nice comment!😁 And for a 1500w to 2000w. Your car battery and a D3400 XS battery would be perfect for subs, mids and highs! And will cover up 3500 watts or 4000w. It'll give you some extra room to play with. 👍

Big 4 with 0 gauge ofc wires, yellow top optima under the hood with xs power d925 battery in the trunk just for a single fosgate t1 12 subwoofer wired to 2 ohms on a kicker cxa1200.1 amp. Loving my set-up. 13.0 volts on full tilt.

it also depends on the efficiency of your amps... i have a 2500 watt Shark amp that is very efficient.. when i changed to a brazil style 3500W amp... my electricals struggled.. and i have a 270a mech man alt and 2 D3400's... plan to get a 400A and a few batteries.. its too cold to be out working on my system now.. my garage isnt heated and wont fit my truck anyway..its teeny.. so ii am re-do the whole thing in the spring.. just start getting parts over the winter... love the channel

How much watts can it handle?

[@drvictoria07]

@@justinatmidi I'm pushing about 10,000 watts. Well worth the investment rather than tons of AGM batteries.

Ok so whats considered a big system?

[@ineedbass1]

When you start reaching over 2000 watts. That's when you need to start considering more power. Batteries, alternators, ofc wire. 👍

Dont know if its overkill or not...but im running 2xp3k 1 xp2k and 2 optima red tops under the hood

[@ineedbass1]

I think it'll be OK, especially if you plan on upgrading. Which I already know us bassheads love to do! 🤣

$300-$400 for an AGM/ Lithium battery isn’t bad. Autozone wants $250 for a lead acid lmao

Facts! 😂

I need a new audio alternator, agm battery under the hood & for my trunk, what do you recommend bro?

[@ineedbass1]

Really depends on your setup. I run a D3400 XS battery under my hood and two of them in the back. As far as your alternator, I would definitely get a mechman, their pretty pricey. But great alternators for car audio. 👍

U can run it on a stock everything and be just fine I don't have a big system but I have lights install etc

[@BoobeeMyles]

​@@nicoledeidre36No I couldn't because my voltage was dropping & headlights were dimming.. I've upgraded to a yellowtop 34/78 so far, working on my alternator & secondary now.

I be damned you just answered the big question I've been asking myself. Can a AGM (Car Audio Battery) double as a like standard car battery? and will it start? #THANKS 🫡

[@ineedbass1]

The xs power D3400 can definitely act as a car battery and a car audio battery. I've used it if for years that way! 👍

[@1DaRavishing]

​(1) 3400+250 amp alternator should be enough to run my WHOLE 3K? It's like I don't want my shit running FULL tilt but rather Popeye after he ate his spinach 😅

[@nick_sometin7791]

I be lost asf lol im planning on like 2k Watts for speakers and 4k for subs, I'ma need a new alternator and definitely another battery, but that shi expensive 🫠

Bro you ain't never lied! 🤣 🤣 🤣 Car audio is a expensive hobby!! Lmao

@@ineedbass1 It is I'm like 1.8k in since 2021 and i still need every electrical upgrade lol, what you think i should do my case o definitely need big 3 and an extra battery, i have around 2k watts on speakers and 1.2k on subwoofers, it'd be better to put a battery on my subs right?

[@ineedbass1]

@@nick_sometin7791 you're definitely doing something there. I would definitely upgrade your alternator to a 250 amp. That should help you out there. I believe if installing more wattage, especially over 3000 watts. Your gonna start seeing a change in your electrical. Adding a battery will help you so far. Set a budget, for a new alternator. I'm pretty sure you can get one around $430... (I know, sounds insane) 😂 lol

[@nick_sometin7791]

@@ineedbass1 Man i went on js alternator website found the 250 amp alt is like 330 but the 350 amp alt is like 440 I'm like bro what 😭 I'll probably write it off on my taxes and the battery lol cuz i door dash and i can write them off, i plan on definitely getting a bigger subwoofer probably max 3k watts, definitely need to work more for all this, it's fr a pain 😭

[@ineedbass1]

@@nick_sometin7791 I'll warn you now bro. Car audio is addictive and you will only want more. Lol go ahead and get the bigger alternator. Cause you're gonna need it later homie! Better safe than sorry! 🤣 And the taxes is definitely a plus! Lol
