but when it's flat, the stereo fails to work at all, it won't even turn on, which leads me to think that's the culprit, unless i've missed an obvious thing when i wired up the amp feed from the battery?
How big is your audio set up ?
I would recommend putting the cars charging system on a diagnostic to check for faults before you go any further or cause damage to your system by under voltage or current draw.
If your charging systems ok the you can simply add another battery of similar spec to the charging cycle.
Try upgrading your big 3 wires to say 4 or 0 gauge for a boost before adding a battery.
