I really think i need a higher output alternator and a deep cell battery. i heard rewinding alternators to a higher amperage actually shortens its life, because it wasnt designed to handle all that power. could someone shed some light on this?
also, if your alternator is pushing alot of power, would you need a power distributor to your audio system, to kinda dampen the surge.
right now, i have 2 sony 10's and a bridged 760 watt 2 channel amp.
thanks in advance.

I very seriously doubt that your current system draws enough current to kill your alternator. I think it may just be a bad battery. Is it the original battery? Get yourself an Optima red top/yellow top or an SVR battery...you'll be fine.
