Default alternator rewinding???

How many of you guys have had your alternators rewound for a higher output? with my current stereo setup, I tried a yellow top battery, and it isn't enough. I have never had an alternator worked on, and when the time presents it's self, I guess I'm going to have to do it. My stereo works great, but when the light dim above 2200rpm's, it tells me there is a problem. I would like to think that a cap, will fix it, but I really believe the solution is the alternator. If a reputable shop does the rewinding should I be nervous? Anything to address first. I need to do two of the big three wires still. Should I run a 4 gauge wire from the battery to the distrubution block and then 4 gauge to the alternator? I assume that is where the alternator wire starts. Thanks in advance, chris
