I have a 2001 toyota tacoma and am looking into some eclipse amps. I was looking at the DA7232 or the DA7122 to put on two eclipse titanium tens. I have a yellow top optima and going to put two 1 farad caps in but im still worried about voltage problems. Which amp would be better for what I am wanting to do. Thanks in advance.

Factory alternator or High Output? Big 3 wiring upgrade done in the engine bay? When you say you're worried about voltage problems, what do you mean...that you won't have enough power available or that you've had problems with that vehicle before?

with these two dvc 4+4 ohm tens I would go with the DA7232 because you can run one ten in the left channel and one to the right channel with a 2 ohm load, the DA7122 is a mono amp rated at 2 ohms, using the 2 channel at 2 ohms per channel by hooking up both + and both - of one ten to one channel, and then do the same for the other channel with the other ten, this will get the most out of this amp and will sound great.

I'm just guessing about big three wiring upgrade:
1) Upgrade Alt-batt wire
2) Upgrade Battery Groud
3) ??
