chapo123 Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 like lets say the rockford fosgate t1000.1bd says 1/0 and it does like 1600rms at 1 ohm (birth sheet) and i used 4 gauge. would that be okay? also how much watts rms would the 4 gauge drop it too? because i know 4 gauge would increase resistance. thanks for helping out a lol Steve I don't know why but everytime I see your new paint I want a Dr. Pepper...... is this normal? heres an analogy for you. running a high power stereo without a fuse is like having unprotected sex with that hot chick at the bar with the sketchy sexual history. Sure you may be fine and nothing happens but that one time something does happen you're fucked. i dont want woofer broke like bass sound clip clip and voice coil overheat 2 sa12s, saz1500 build log http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/91183-chapo123s-sundown-build-log/page__gopid__1250604entry1250604 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
