Car Batteries Used for Sound Systems

Car audio systems bring sound to vehicles and are installed by the cars' manufacturer or can be upgraded, with many systems to choose from. Amplifiers, speakers, subwoofers, receivers and head units can be integrated into the car's system to enhance audio playback and performance. With such powerful systems, car batteries can be quickly drained of energy, which can affect overall vehicle performance. To avoid this, there are batteries specially made to support heavy car audio system use.

Kinetik

  • Kinetik audio power cells are a well-known brand, being used in competitions and providing enough power to reach more than 180 decibels. The company carries 10 different models that range from 600 to 3800 watts, giving powerful output for audio systems. Tightly packed cells make for a compact unit that can be mounted in any position.

Optima

  • Optima car audio batteries can withstand deep low discharging without failure, can be fully charged in one hour and have a long battery life. Their design survives vibrations and jarring that is issued from major audio systems and absorbs shocks. High currents are delivered instantly, giving amplifiers power they need for peak performance with no clipping of music, while losing less than half a volt in more than months of non-use. The company carries seven different models, all with Optima's unique engineering technology.

Stinger

  • Stinger's car batteries provide power and durability to car audio and amp systems. They have a high current capability, deep cycle process and speedy recharge that provides long battery life. The SPP2150 operates with 4,300 watts of power and has a peak discharge of 5,000-plus amps. It gives more than 400 discharge cycles and at 4.5 mOhms, delivers power fast.
