Recommended Posts

I'm getting a new system which consists of AudioTechnix 1/0 awg CCA wire in two 50' spools one blue one white, two Skar Audio ZVX's powered by a Skar Audio 4500.1D at 1 ohm. And later on a single Skar Audio 125.4 and two sets of VXI component speakers, a High Output Singer Alternator 250A, and the "The Big 3 in OFC Audiotechnix 1/0 awg wire, with 3 rear batteries the Deka Intimadator. My question: How many runs of runs of 1/0 awg do I need for the front to the rear batteries? This is going in a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo.

2 pos and 2 neg should be fine.

2 runs of CCA will be good for my install? My local car audio store told me that I might not need to run a negative from front to back is this true? thank you for your help :)

While not necessarily wrong with the wattage you are running I would recommend strongly that you have dedicated ground runs to the front of your vehicle. As far as how many runs is concerned a good call is always as many as you can afford, your electrical system can never be too good.
