I got a 70A automated fuse. Any bets on how that's gonna work out?

Unfortunately I do not have a manual, although I have been looking all over the web for one. (It's a late 90's Nakamichi PA-1002, if anybody has one please let me know?) Why two fuses? And does it matter where on the wire or how close to the amp it is? I figured I'd just do what anybody else...

Nope, there's no visible fuse like that.

It's a Nakamichi PA-1002, I don't know whether it has built in fuses or not? It's standard five gauge stranded copper wire, looks about like this (very right):

Isn't that huge? I was thinking 60A..

65 amp alternator, 5 AWG power/ground, 200W/4ohm amplifier. Probably getting an AGU type fuse. What size should I get?

Kewl. Now to figure out the fuse size. It's supposed to go between the battery and power wire, yes? I have 5 AWG wiring for both ground and power. What would you recommend?

I just want some bass in my ride (temporarily). Can I just unhook the third sub and run it as-is in mono @ 4 ohm?

I have pondered this and think I came up with a solution that works. What if I run the amp in stereo and run one channel to two (2) subs in parallel, and then the other one through the remaining channel. This would effectively be 4 ohms, right? I know the load will be different between the two...

Yes, I have amp and subs. Just want this to work somehow. What's DCR? The amp will also do 100W @ 8 ohms bridged.

I'm a dork. So I need a mono amp that does at least 2 ohms? What if I do the subs in series?

Would this work? 2-channel Nakamichi PA-1002 bridged to 200W x1 @ 4 ohms + three (3) single-coil 100W 10-inch subs @ 8 ohms (each) wired in parallel. What size fuse should I get?

Basically my only requirement would be pure sound quality and craftsmanship with an auxiliary input and CD player with 100+ times sampling frequency? PS, I like the Denon DCT units and the Clarion DRZ9255.

Hi good folks! Basically, I need a couple amps for an install in an Alfa Romeo saloon. I have a box with three old-school 10" 100WRMS/8ohm subs wired in parallel, and I'm thinking a supplementing with a 2 or 3-way Seas system. Thinking midrange x4, midbass x2 and tweeter x2? I already have a...

Gotcha! Too bad thousands of pics links are now dead..
