What kind of system are you running?
I have a cheap 1000w amp and 2 cheap 500w 12" subs.. I never really had a problem with the idle..

The thing is ; if its too powerfull (2,3,4k+ watts) your battery and alternator cannot give all the power it needs. You may try getting a condenser , and/or a more powerful alternator... But thats only if you have a really big sys.. If its getto like mine, then its something else..
