Default WTF...too much power and car dies??

okayyyy so i have somehow came across a very strage problem...
when the car is running and say i have the cd player on when i turn it up like halfway the car dies...
i was like wtf so i tested it some more
got the car running again and flipped on my heater and my lights and it dies again...
for whatever reason when there is more then one thing being powered in the car it dies

Easy, Whats your battery voltage read out at idle??? Whats it read under a load? Lets say with your lights on or heat??

Check that first. Then check the continuity in your battery cables and check your grounds for corrosion. Check alternator and connections too.
