Dual inputs and fusing.


Recommended Posts

I would run 300 amp fuses for each line. Fuse to the rating of the cable for this type of setup and not the rating into the amp. Otherwise you aren't gaining anything with the dual inputs.

^^ this

I would only do this if the amp has an internal fuse. Ask the guys at Sundown and see what they say.

Then wtf is the point of having dual inputs if you are going to fuse down the wire to what 4 gauge cable is rated at, it is a complete WASTE of dual inputs and wire!!!!
