dkahns51 Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 (edited) My 0 gauge really isnt 0 gauge come to find out(Power werx 0 gauge welding cable)... So its not really filling up my T2500 amp. I was wondering if there is a trick to make sure that the wire wont slip out much. It has never came out, but it seems like i see more bare wire showing off the amp as time goes on.. Do i tighten it down as tight as i can? (it seems like that would break it) Any tricks or suggestions would be helpful Edited September 6, 2011 by dkahns51 Quote **Clicky>>My 2009 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport Buildlog<<Clicky** I'm messing up 98% of the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michigancapri92 Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 the rockford amps are screw down all the way so no matter what size wire it should fit otherwise you can strip more down and fold it in half !

Yup i know, but it seems to push alot of wire to the side when you screw it down. The screw isnt that wide.

Guest Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 i noticed that same thing with my amps, like the wire seems to be coming out, but i can pull like crazy on the wire and it doesnt even move. i think its just the insulation pulling back over time.
