My New Kicker ZX550.2 comes in Friday (finally), ordered it yesterday. So when I hook it up, am I going to experience problems with my alternator not having enough power to power the car electronics? I've got a 1995 Camaro with a 3.4 V6, basically barebone stock besides the exhaust.

you might when you have it playing pretty loud. but for starters try upgrading the big 3.

you shouldn't have any problems if you're electrical system is working right

well i can put it this way, i've got a 96 camaro 3.8, and with my setup with a 600 watt rms bridged amp, when i turn it way up, the lights blink with the music inside and out. its not a huge blinking loss of power, but enough that its noticeable. i'd imagine our alternators are the same if not mine being a little bigger. hope that helps.

Sounds nice, if I bridge it and run it up to about 25 (295W RMS bridged), you get the nice light dimming effect, but running it with both channels, nothing too bad...thanks guys
