thefourth Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 As long as your 0 gauge is your primary power wire then yes, 4 gauge to both amps is fine. A distribution block with a 0 gauge input and 2 4 gauge outputs will work just fine. You can get yourself one like this http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_15319_e2-EWDB2-by-Scosche.html that is fused for two runs. A 100-150 amp fuse for the 1500 would work and a 50 amp should hold up the 4 channel i guess my question to is would this be more sufficent than using the capacitor? If you want more effiency loose the capictor and add a second battery. Thanks alaskanzx5 I might just do thatI can recone a sub myself. About a year ago I took 2 12" power acoustic mofos and made one sub. I took the magnet and the motor off of one and j b welded it to the other motor and magnet. I had to wind my own voice coil so it would work. After I was done hooked up to 2 boss 5000w amps. And shattered my back and all my side windows came to this thread to recommend soundqubed and ct sounds. OP goes with soundstream. oh lawd.

If you want more effiency loose the capictor and add a second battery. what i was ganna do is lose the capacitor order a XS-D925 and run 0awg to distribution block and my 2 4awg cables from amp to distribution and ground the 2 amps seperately would that be fine? 2002 Mustang GT Procharged Procharger P1SC Supercharger, 8psi Procharger Intercooler, Headers, Borla Off Road X-Pipe Exhaust, Mass Airflow Upgraded Fuel Injectors SCT Flash Chip (Excaliber II), Throttle Body, Lowering Springs, Carbon Fiber Hood -Front 275/40ZR17 -Rear 315/35ZR17 5.0 Short Shifter 3.55 Gears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skax Posted January 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 also what can i put in my dash or somewhere to check my voltage i always checked mine off the capacitor and if i take it out what do i need to get? 2002 Mustang GT Procharged Procharger P1SC Supercharger, 8psi Procharger Intercooler, Headers, Borla Off Road X-Pipe Exhaust, Mass Airflow Upgraded Fuel Injectors SCT Flash Chip (Excaliber II), Throttle Body, Lowering Springs, Carbon Fiber Hood -Front 275/40ZR17 -Rear 315/35ZR17 5.0 Short Shifter 3.55 Gears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skax Posted January 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 That will work fine i was told to put the XS-d925 under the hood though since my stock battery is garbage and i was ganna get 2 XS-d3400's when i get the money for my new system so xs-d925 under hood and what about voltage meter thing? i just wanted a small one to mount under the dash by by bass knob if possible 2002 Mustang GT Procharged Procharger P1SC Supercharger, 8psi Procharger Intercooler, Headers, Borla Off Road X-Pipe Exhaust, Mass Airflow Upgraded Fuel Injectors SCT Flash Chip (Excaliber II), Throttle Body, Lowering Springs, Carbon Fiber Hood -Front 275/40ZR17 -Rear 315/35ZR17 5.0 Short Shifter 3.55 Gears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
