well, to help the electrical system overall.

currently, i am only using a 400 watt 4 channel amp.
i will be putting my 1,200 watt mono amp back in once my box is built.

Only 400 watts? 400 watts should blow you out of the car and be louder then any concert you have ever seen. The equipment must be overated of not a true 400 watts.

but it does do that

it's alpine. it's rated 4 x 100w rms, but the certificate that came w the amp stated 4 x 130w rms upon testing.

400w rms/*520w rms
