I would suggest going with an optima yellow top and you should be fine, they are pretty heavy duty when it comes to audio systems, congrats on the upgrade by the way!!!![sm=smiley20.gif]

well wat happened is i went to a home show with the peeps, you know how they hand stuff out, well they were handing out sears gift cars, with amounts from like 1-200, well we went through all but 2 leaving use with like 5 dollars on 5 differnt cards, so when we scratched the last two off $100 each... i hit the roof, but i look at amps and that was the best on for that price, lol, so you people can say my amp is awful, not worth the money, but hey, it was free and you cant complain with that lol

um, he didnt ask anything about a battery. He asked about an amp. huge difference lol.

Just FYI, you have to buy an amp thats 1ohm stable (since you bought the dual 6ohm subs)and pumps out a solid 600-800 RMS at that impedence.
