i would go with a reducer, a distroblock is good if you wanna run more than 1 amp off of 1 big wire rather than say running 2 seperate wires from the front.

as for the reducerthats good if you want to do exactly what you want, puting a larger gauge into an amp that takes a smaller gauge

The only way to delete your SMD account is for you crawl to steve meades door step on your knees and pleade for his forgiveness and acceptance to be released...He will either grant your wishes.....or choke you with a large piece of 0 gauge and electrocute you by hooking up a solid gold DC 12k at 0.000001 ohm and 10000 volts to your eye sockets and blow your head apart

You guys act like you have never clogged a toilet and ran around the bathroom frantically hoping it don't overflow.
