I have a AQ2200.1D amp at 1 ohm with my 12" ascendant mayhem, it pounds off stock battery bit I hit the clipping light at around 20 on my alpine cde-hd137bt. I do have a 270 amp HO alt and big three and my lights dim sometimes but I'm wondering what all batteries do I all need to make it bump harder, louder and deeper, and make my stiff rear view mirror fall off?

Do you have the big 3 done? That definitely needs to be done. I'd say a d3100 in the back as a second batt would be good.

Reread the post, he has a h/o alt and Big 3 done already.

Op put a battery in the back and you should be good to go. If you don't have a volt meter I suggest you get one, I wouldn't rely on the clip indicator on the bass knob.

I have a atinger volt meter set at 14.7 and It drops lowest on white girl full tilt at 13.1-13.3 but usually stays in the 14's. what batteries would be good you think? Just one kinetik3800 or two 1400?

I use the diehard platinum g31 from sears. It's a badass batt and works great. Cheaper than the kinetic and XS. I was going to do with a d3100 until people recommended the diehard. Look into them.

Yeah just add a battery in the rear. If you don't have room, place any reputable agm battery under your hood as a replacement. With the h/o alt you have, that should be all you need for that power. Also, seeing 13 volts on full tilt is a good thing, shouldn't be too worried about that. The biggest hearing difference you will hear are when you drop volts at a time, such as starting at 14.8 then hit 12.6 then back up to 14.4 then back down to 12.9 etc.

Would two kinetik 1400's do the job?

dont go off that clip light is a gimmik  your voltage seems fair.. any battery you put would help,

Would 2 optima yellow tops cover that electrical or should I get two kinetik HCA 1400 as bat and secondary, and also would I need to fuse alt to bat + 1st bat + to 2nd bat + < 2 fuses inbetween, and one more fuse then to amp +? = 4 fuses for 2 batteries?
