sound system help please?!
i have a 10" kicker L5 in a ported box powered by a kicker zx400.1 amp. 8 gauge wiring with all proper connections...
my problem is that the lights flicker like a bastard (even though my gain is in the middle of even below half)
im going to be uping my system to two kicker L5s and a 1000 watt amp. im going to do a red top battery and a CAP but i really shuldnt need a CAP at only 400 watts right?

Its a sealed battery. I decided to go with this over the cap on the monte, the caps are not batterys, they just hold power. The kinetic's are true car batteries. Kinetic HC 600

Try that link! It'll tell you most of the things you need to do to your car to better the electrical system, as well as minimize/eliminate the car's current problems.

You might want to make sure your battery isn't getting weak, and consider an alternator re-wire or an overdrive pulley - but with that small of a system, you shouldn't have any issues with lights flickering... Unless your battery and/or alternator is going bad.
