If I was running too many amplifers with not correct electrical,in order,what parts of my system would fail first.AMPS,SUBS,ALT,BATTERY,etc.

Looks like you got the order right already... Amps are likely first, then subs, then alt then batts... I dunno about the alt and batts part though....

just wanted to know cuz when I hook up the 2nd amp I know It's gonna be hard not to see what they can do,till I get the electrical right.

Get 2 volt gauges, and attach 1 to each amp... Then you'll be able to see what kind of voltage drop you're getting... That's the best way to make sure you're not tearing shit up... Then, you'll also be able to tell how much of a difference batt/alt upgrades make...

+ 1 on that. I bet ur alt will go out 1st thats what mine did, granted my amp is a power hungry skank. The bioch of a alt was only a year old.

Any pics or links to the gauges your talking about.Sounds like somthing I should look into.what # of volts could I get away with safely?

Anything like that would work... Just make sure it's set correctly using a DMM. You should be alright into the 11's, but if your voltage is dropping out of the 12's, turn it down!!!! I personally didn't run my amp below like 13.5 when I had everything hooked up
