Default 91 Accord not taking battery charge.

Hello again. I have a 91 accord ex with manual trans and 220k on it. My problem may sound easy but ive done almost everything i can think of. The problem is that my alternator recently went and i had it replaced. I dont know if the old one was a high output alternator or if the new one is not, but the new one is not recharging the battery. I have a 2500 watt system with a capacitor but there was never a problem with the old alternator. Now im having to boost the battery every other day cause when i go to get in the car its dead. I had a guy over at advanced auto check my alternator and battery. He said i might need a high output alt. and he recharged my battery cause he said it was low but the alt was good. He also said purchasing a gel battery would maybe help. Three days later the battery was dead again. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thanks in Advance.

you sure that your battery didnt get all bad with the alt so your mechanic checked out the battery and the alt
