J00bles Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 (edited) i'm back, 100 or 120 amp fuse? or bigger? or as long as it's at least 100 does it even matter? if your going to be playing music in a daily driving scenerio, you should only pull about half of the amp's max draw. if you're using it for burps and tones, then it will pull more current. i would say to match your amp's total fuse rating on the power wire or just a little under that. i choose to do a little less so that it will blow before the bad power can get to (and hurt) the amp. as an example, on my old pioneer... it had (2) 30 amp fuses on the amplifier, but i used a single 40 amp fuse inline. i've never had any issues because the lower fuse will blow first in my case.

Bali Posted April 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 why does the knu kit come with 4 ring terminals but no spade terminals? also, no speaker wire either? Which do you guys recommend for both to fit my setup, also does red and black matter which end i put on the wire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bali Posted April 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 i just realized something, my amp says the power connector gauge is 4 AWG, will the 1/0 KLM wire still work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
