Im assuming that the voltage is not high enough in the car because the cap reads about 14 volts normally and when the bass hits it drops all the way to around 11 volts, so if that is the case should I go with a bigger battery up front like an optima red top or should I go with a bigger alternator.

The amp is tuned it sounds really good with out even turning it up and the bass boost is low, I mean it sounds good to me already I just want to be able to turn it up all the way every once in a while without problems

The stinger is a secondary battery in my trunk, the amp is the only thing that is shutting off, and the head unit has a adjustment for the subwoofer level and a seperate one for bass and those are both turned up when it is shutting off, the subs are each 1 ohm dual voice coil and they are wired down to 1 ohm which the amp is supposed to put out 1800 watts at 1 ohm

I currently have a rockford 1500.1 amplifier, 2 12" fi q's a power acoustik 5 farad capacitor and a stinger sp 680 car audio battery. I have been having problems with the amplifier and am not sure what it is thats wrong or what I can try next or if the amp is possibly deffective. the amp is currently turned up a little less than half way and when I put the base all the way up on the head unit and turn the volume up about 3/4 the way up the amp will shut off. The red light does not come on to put the amp into protection or anything just the amp turns off than back on a few seconds later. I have upgraded the big 3 with 4 gauge wire and ran 0 gauge wire from the battery back so Im not sure what to do next to fix the problem.

I am getting either two 12" fi q's or two 12" fi bl's and i was wondering if the rockford fosgate t.1500 amp is enough to power them and if the bl's are a big difference over the q's and how loud they are. I care about sound quality but if the q's are a lot quiter i would rather just go louder and get the bl's
