where can i get one of these? and whats one of these run? edit: i think the battery in my car is new but im not sure, and ill get it checked thanks for the suggestion ohjay

alright im not sure if i said what he did right but it was something similar to that. also im planing on getting a new battery hopefully next week. would i be ok with a new battery for now do u think? like i said my friend who owned it before me said he was droppin below 10 volts with it and he got a new battery and that helped alot according to him. also is it gonna hurt my subs if it cuts out like that?

ah ok well thats what it says on the wire so idk if its 1 or 2 lol.. and no i didnt do the big 3, i cant afford it right now. my buddy who installed re wired my battery to alternator wire with the 2 awg and said that was like 1 of the 3 i think? not sure if hes right tho but thats about it.

also my wire says 2 awg on it, so will having 2 gauge instead of 1 hurt my performance?

im not quite sure, its just a stock alternator we bought from a shop cuz the last one crapped out. and i wanted to get another battery i just wanted to ask some people here for their opinion on what might be wrong before i went out and got one when i need to get something else instead to fix it ya know. im going to go check my manual for my car and see if it has an amp rating on it. also i dont have a voltmeter on my car and i wont be able to let u know till thursday cuz i let my buddy use my voltmeter till then

well the alternator was just replaced last year, so im kinda leaning on the battery side. also im not quite sure what it is i forgot lol but ill ask my buddy shortly. thanks for the input, anyone else have an idea? all would be appreciated. edit: if it was 2 gauge wire could that be the problem? and is it hurting my subs/amp when it is hittin low then cuts out?

so i recently bought 2 sundown sa 12's, 1 saz 1500d, a box that the subs came in tuned to 34 with about 3 cubes, and a spare battery plus 2 gauge wiring all around ( i think) for $1000 bucks. i traded the battery for a new box from a friend of a friend thats 4.5 cubes and tuned to 28. i also bought a new kenwood deck with the setting to turn down bass in your car ( cant think of the term for it atm) to go with these subs. when we first hooked them up we had them on 35 which is max for the deck and it slammed. but since then ive turned them up to 35 on the song put on by jeezy and at the lowest note my subs shut off entirely (including music) for a sec or 2 and i turned it down in the mean time. this was also at night when i had my lights on. and since i had it on 32 on a song during the day and they shut off completly again.i can listen to them at 31 or 32 with no probs usually but when it hits the real low notes it shuts off sometimes. my thoughts are im clipping the amp or my stock battery ( in the stock location) just isnt powerful enough to power these fully when they are at 35 on the lows, but im not really sure. my buddy had the same problem as i when he had these and thats why he got the spare battery and he said it fixed it completely. so im wondering if i could get some help on why this is happening. btw i am running them at 1 ohm. any help would be appreciated. oh and these are in a 4 door 98 cavalier lol.
