There's a couple different ways: When running 2+ alternators, you can use one at 14.4v(although most will sit around 15v)) for your stock electrical, starting battery, head unit. The second and/or rest of the alts can be set to 16v for a 14v battery(s) or 18v for a 16v batter(s). These batteries would be completely isolated from your stock electrical, they could be a large battery bank in the rear of the car for just the amplifiers. Some amps aren't stable on 16v or 18v, so you have to check with the manufacture, but the upside is increased power. Or you could run 2+ alternators all set at 14.4v for stock electrical, battery bank, and amps. This is easier since nothing is separated. But when running multiple alts you have the choice to use some for stock electrical and some for amps with a higher voltage. This is handy because then you don't need to use step-downs if you have a single alt but want 16v or 18v. The case of an alternator is the ground, when it's mounted everything else in the vehicle (chassis, battery negative terminal, etc) is grounded to it (alt case). Hope that helps.

Its a d2 it came from marks build.. Posting from a phone?lol ... DBL POST FTL !! Well then you should have enough headroom/wattage to run one AQ2200 @ 1Ohm and be good to go... How do you have the amps setup now? its not installed yet?Im gonna go with 2 12 xcons cant i do 1sub per amp? Get d2 coils, strap the amps together and wire them in series/parallel for a final 2ohm load Like this

It's personal preference, but must of the music recorded is not in surround, that defeats the purpose of having speakers behind you. If you are focusing on the fronts the goal is to create a "stage" that would simulate a live performance

Thank you kind sir.

please, while we are on the subject...tell me some info on this, i knownothing about it, not even what voc's are.... time for ol' chop to go to school Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) refers to organic chemical compounds which have significant vapor pressures and which can affect the environment and human health.
