alright here is my issue, I've got a zx600.2 running the comps with a ti1000.2 bridged running my 1 ti elite (spl cone). For some reason after playing my stereo for about an half hour or so my 600 will turn off and the ti1000.2 will be the only amp running. when i had my x1200.1 hooked up, it didn't shut off but when i put in the ti1000.2 it started to shut off. i've got a 240 amp alt and a kinetik 1800 up front, so what i'm getting at is it must be an electrical problem. what would be the best bet a second battery or the big 3? any help is very much appreciated.

Do the 3 before you do add anything else to the system.

Then test and see what happens from there. What gauge power cable are you using vs. the gauge used for the stock earths???

alright so do the big 3 first then? i kind of get the concept of the big 3. battery pos to alt pos, ground to chassis, engine ground. do i buy these in autozone? i'm thinking i'm gonna need a battery but i'm not sure that 1000.2 is a current beast.

You need to use 0 gauge power cable for the "Big 3"............and I'd run it to the back of the car to a fuse block and split it into 4 gauge cable to the amps. If yer running both amps off 1 4 gauge wire it's causing problems for sure.................
