need help

Currently I have a 4 channel amp on my car ( 50 rms, 60 max) but lately I've thinking about maybe adding 2 12's that a friend of mines gave to me since he needed the space in his garage. These right here...

My question is, what will I need to power my stereo? Will a cap do it, or will I need a cap and a better battery?

I currently have this one

plenty of people just get a bigger battery and leave it at that for small systems.

caps don't do much... just supply power to your system faster than your battery. they're not the end all be all for electrical fixes.

that equipment seems small enough where a bigger alternator wouldn't be necessary, but i didn't read in depth on it. if you go bigger, you will have electrical issues, and the only true fix to that is a high output alternator.

when you say a bigger battery, you mean one with a higher cranking amp rating?

hai, hai, hai. not a physically bigger battery.

if it were me, i'd just say f**k it, and upgrade it all.
