I just got a 1000w RMS mono amp with a 550 watt 4 channel amp. When i play any music lound my lights dim. I was wondering if i get a new battery if that would help any. I have a dry cell right now. I was looking into a Kinetic or Optima. I only listen to the music loud when im driving, not stationary. Thanks for any help. |

You need an HO alternator. A good battey like a Kinetik or Odyssey (not optima) wouldn't hurt though. |

Optima batteries are still good but stay away from the red tops for car audio. Hell, even some world records were set with Optima batteries. |

Are capacitors still good to use these days? Thus, being a possible solution? I remember having one installed when I was running two 12" Kicker subs on a MTX Thunder Amp, along with a Kenwood Mid. This was more like a little over 10 years ago. |

No, people don't really use capacitors anymore if they know how they truly work. In some cases a crazy amount of capacitors or farads is useful but for the most part capacitors are useless. |
