As you probably can guess I dont know a whole lot about car sound systems. What is the purpose of useing an extra battery for the system? Does'nt it just die eventualy with nothing to charge it? Does it eliminate the need for a capacitor? 95 Maroun Contour SE Duratec V6 2.5L For transportaion not raceing..

The battery only "powers" the system while the car is off. When it's running, the power comes from the alternator.
