8000watts Posted June 27, 2009 Report Posted June 27, 2009 (edited) I was curious as to what type of fuse holders ppl were using because i have to buy one every couple months due to the fact that my shit keeps melting...i have 2 1200 watt amps (2400watts max pull) running off of a 4 gauge... ANY SUGGESTIONS? Edited June 27, 2009 by 8000watts Quote
Stephen Posted June 27, 2009 Report Posted June 27, 2009 bigger wire if they are true 1200w amps. Quote you can cook bacon shirtless if you're not a pussy...lol not hatin, but am i wrong here it looks as if the amp is not grounded its hooked directly to the battery. it that the way it should be. DC POWER
David Posted June 27, 2009 Report Posted June 27, 2009 X20 upgrade to a single 1/0 for power and ground see if that helps. put a 300 amp fuse on that 1/0 Quote
8000watts Posted June 27, 2009 Author Report Posted June 27, 2009 bigger wire if they are true 1200w amps. so do u think that a 0 gauge would reduce the heat?? Quote

E a r t h Posted June 27, 2009 Report Posted June 27, 2009 can you tell us what these so called amps are? 2400rms off of a long run of 4 gauge = heat = meltdown i use 4 gauge on my mids and highs amp Quote

bumonskateboard6 Posted June 27, 2009 Report Posted June 27, 2009 if it's true 2400wrms you're lucky you haven't had the 4 gauge catch fire Quote Current Systems: 2011 BMW 335i Hertz HDP1 DC LVL3 12" Full Carbon Fiber 2002 Acura TlKenwood DNX9980HD2 DCLVL4 12" Subs with LVL5 Parts D.7 CoilsDC 3.5kHertz HSK-165 up front HCX-165 RearHertz HDP4 AmpDC Power Engineering 260 Amp AltBig 3 and amp powered with KNU 1/0XS Power D2400 Up Front i pulled out my dick in class many of times and had it shown. get over it bitch...stupid open legged hairy beavered bitch... going over rms = smaller box, under rms = bigger box... Low voltage doesn't blow amps. That's a myth. A router that does the sub holes makes rounded edges also?
