Sorry wasn't aware that distribution blocks had ring terminals all the one's I've ever seen were just like screw in design.

Awesome thanks man! And I'm not completely decided on what amps to use as of just yet so it's hard to determine my effeciency correctly. Thanks for the rockford link it's very helpful!

I'm not sure how to calculate my amp demand. Isn't it just the rms x the current voltage? If so then I'd be running more than 300 amps. I Just want to do everything right the first time. So I don't have to rip apart my car again and do everything a second time.

Im just confused about using more than 1 run of 0 gauge or 2/0+ gauge. Do you have to use multiple distribution blocks? Where do you buy fuse holders and distribution blocks that accept 2/0+ gauge and higher? And what's better to do more than 1 run of 0 gauge or a single run of 2/0 gauge?

Actually I plan on running one more amp for tweets but it'll be small. Like 250x2 @ 4 ohms

I don't think I'd be doing any serious upgrades after all of this for a while. I'm currently running 2 12" midbass and just one old kicker impulse 12" so I think I'll be happy for quite a while. Oh and how does everyone do more than 1 run of 0 gauge? Will I need more than 1 run? And ok thanks man! I don't really plan to play while idle. I usually only really bump my music while on the highway. But I do want to take my gf to the Drive in movie theater after I get this build done haha.

So if I were looking for an alt. I should be looking for one that's around 250 amps? If I upgrade the alt how big should the fuse be connecting the battery and alt together? I'm trying to find one of my friends to go half on a spool of 0 gauge with me so I can upgrade my wires and do a big 3. And that's awesome to hear I didn't think batteries would last nearly that long!

I plan on doing the big 3 soon. Xs power flex 0 gauge is pretty cheap so I think I'm just going to buy a spool of it. Power and ground cables are the exact same just different color jackets right? And would just 1 xs d3100 Be able to power both of those amps? Do I have to fuse the big 3? Ive been looking at Voltmeters but I'm not sure how to wire them In properly. And how long does a battery generally last for? $300 for a battery isn't cheap but if its gonna last a long time I have absolutely no problem buying one. I'm just trying to do my first build right. Thanks for the help guys

I've been looking into batteries and trying to find an alternator for my 90 corolla. My first question is how long do batteries generally last for? I was looking in the used section and people sell 2 year old batteries. I'm not sure which batteries to get but was recommended to use an xs3100 or kinetic2400. I plan to be running off of a lanzar opti700x2 and an aq2200d. How many batteries would I need? And would I definitely have to upgrade my alternator? My car is just a daily driver. Thanks in advance!

Looking for an amp that puts out around 1000 watts x2 @ 2ohms. I'm looking for the Lanzar Opti700x2 but I'm interested to see what else is out there. Also looking for an audioque 2200d and a pair of audioque hdc3 10's! Hit me up!
