Robert8252 Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 There is absolutely not one need in any possible way at all even a little bit to use 0g on that amp. If, and ONLY if you still feel a need to run 1/0 to it. You still put a 60 amp anl fuse 6" from the battery and if you don't trust the fuses on the amp 6" from the amp as well. Why would you put a fuse on the power wire 6 inches from the amp if the amp has on board fusing? It is completely pointless. I've learned from US Amps that you can't always trust the onboard fusing.

meade916 Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 run the 1/0 to a distribution block and then a small run of 4ga from there to the amp. Problem solved.

mrdavebasshead75 Posted May 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 run the 1/0 to a distribution block and then a small run of 4ga from there to the amp. Problem solved. Wow Steve! Im honored u posted! So when I want to upgrade, just take out the distro? Because I DONT plan to keep these amps or sub stage. Just wanted to atleast start from somewhere, learn as I go and upgrade in the future but without the hassle of pulling wire back out!

CHEVY4X4BLAZER Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 I think you should keep the distribution blocks. They make connections sooo much easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert8252 Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 (edited) To each their own. I've had two MD3Ds and a MB Quart 1500 go up in smoke and the inboard fuses never popped.
