dcsoundlabMN Posted October 16, 2009 Report Posted October 16, 2009 i am sort of a newbie at this and am in dire need of some help. i am looking for for someone to tell me EXACTLY how to wire up this system battery and all.. its going to be 1 18" dc level 4 xl (d2) powered by a sundown 2200. i am going to be wiring up on extra battery in the trunk and am wondering exactly how to do this. ex. where to put the fuses.. what size fuses.. all the little stuff its going to be 0 gauge wires. and since its not THAT much power would it be alright if i were to just replace the stock battery with a kinetik and upgrade the big 3?

This is how you do it: ***This is for your positive line...you need not fuse your negative, just run a cable straight through Front Batt...........Fuse............................................Fuse.........R Bat IIIIIIIIIIIII---------.\.----------------------------------------.\.---------IIIIIIIIIIIII Edited October 16, 2009 by Dale Quote

dcsoundlabMN Posted October 16, 2009 Author Report Posted October 16, 2009 and what batteries should i be looking at for this setup ex. kinetik 1400 or 2400? Quote 02 Chevy Trailblazer 18" DC XL build in progress... refs: ak1167 (bought tweeters from)
Dale Posted October 16, 2009 Report Posted October 16, 2009 The main purpose of your fuse is to protect your wire. So, if you're using 0 Guage, 300 AMP fuses should be fine Quote
