I was hoping to get this resolved in a different manner. I sent my FI Q 12 in for repair at the beginning of June. Mr Shawn said he would fix it because it was under warranty. I emailed him in the beginning, and he said they were going to ship it back soon. Then I started getting no email responses. Long story short, it has been 5 months since I sent it in. This is a bit ridiculous. I paid good money for a good product. I JUST WANT MY PROPERTY BACK.

So P=IV If you want more power, you need more current and voltage. Voltage is pretty much constant in a car so you have to focus on getting the current to the amplifier(s) higher. The thicker the wire, the greater the flow of current allowed. 0 gauge is probably fine for what you want. If you get an additional battery and wire it in parallel, you would increase the amperage; however, you do need to charge these batteries. That 130 alternator will probably not keep up with the two batteries. If you were just to get an alternator, that would not really work well either because the alternator is not always engaged in modern cars; therefore, does not always produce a current that can be used by the amplifier(s). So the best thing would be 2 batteries in parallel and a better alternator if you plan on playing loudly for extended periods of time. Def do big 3. I would recommend having a system 2000 watts rms or under so you dont have to really worry about all of this. One battery and the stock alternator with the big 3 would do fine with 2000 or under. You can get a system of 2000 W ssound very similar to a system of 3000 W. The 3000 W will be louder, but is it really worth all the extra money and time for the small gain in db?

thank you guys for sharing that information

Well I sent in my FI sub for repairs at the beginning of may. Sent a few emails to Mr. Shawn, and he said they would repair it. After a while I started getting no response. Probably because of the recent medical issues. Hopefully you are recovering Mr. Shawn. Thoughts and prayers go out to you. Anyway, I got an email from him about 2 weeks ago, and I emailed him back. I have gotten no reply yet. Today I try to send another email, and none of my emails are being delivered to them. I am getting this message: Delivery has failed to these recipients or groups: recones@ficaraudio.com A problem occurred during the delivery of this message to this e-mail address.
