the stereo will take a lot of the voltage away as the alternator isnt designed to supply that muc for all the gear lol
whats it without the stereo on and all lights etc
mine read 11.9v sumtimes less but dont have any problems
proberbly worth investing having a new alternator that way if it goes wrong its under gurantee lol

Jake, 11.6v is too low. I had a voltage prob on my car for a long time, I even bought a brand new battery and alternator and I still got a reading below 12v.
Finally Martin Hadland found the problem and sorted it out for me and mine now reads a healthy 13.6v
