Fusing a 4 channel amp

Question:

Kicker zx650.4 has two 40amp fusing on the amp itself!

I have it wired and powered with a short run of 0 gage wire maybe a foot long run, it is connected directly from the spare battery bank in the back with no fusing on the wire itself! Should I fuse the wire? I only ask because the amp already has inboard fusing!

Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, debt is the money of slaves. Just my .02c

that shop needs keep those doors open so they have to charge for it

if people think 10k is a lot then they should get into other hobbies.. like masturbating, cause any hobby cost money to maintain

Lol no, I'm smarter than that bro haha. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice..............go fuck yourself lol

Correct.

If something in the amp causes the line in fuse to blow. Your amp is now gonzo.

You (if you choose) fuse the amp line in, it's to protect the run in. That's all.
