Depending on thestate of your electrical system and overall condition of your vehicle, you mayneed to upgrade your alternator and battery. After the vehicle is started, thealternator provides the power to your electrical system, not the battery. Whenthe engine is running, the alternator is your main source of power. Upgradingthe alternator should be your first consideration if you should experience avoltage drop in the system when operating your audio system.
