roscoe1129 Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 but im trying to use 0gauge wire. all they do is take your 0guage and make it possible to hook it up to smaller amps, they connect like a ring terminal to the end but they have a set screw that crimps on the wire. reducer Quote Some people need a sympathetic pat... on the head...with my hammer Scientia est Vox "In Nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus Sancti" DONT BE AFRAID TO USE THE SEARCH BUTTON!!!

Aaron813 Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 That would be the best way to do it with a reducer i think a set screw ring terminal will be way way to bulky to fit in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roscoe1129 Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 the end of the reducer should fit on either side of the screw on the terminal block of the amp and then you tighten it down. its like half of a spade terminal Quote Some people need a sympathetic pat... on the head...with my hammer Scientia est Vox "In Nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus Sancti" DONT BE AFRAID TO USE THE SEARCH BUTTON!!!
