OK, cool. Thanks again for everything!

Shoot.... One last thing. I'm going with 1/0 Gauge Power wire (in stock at lowes) from battery to distribution block. Chart says 262.5 Watt Fuse recommended for 1 Gauge wire. Should I order a 250amp fuse for the power wire or a little smaller amperage? I will be fusing each amp (60a + 80a) at...

Great idea... you're the man!!!!! :) Thanks for all the help!

Awesome thanks! I'm going to order the 150a fuse. Also I'm going to lowes and grabbing some 0AWG wire and will replace the 4 gauge wire from the battery to the firewall and run my distribution block with 0AWG in and 2 x 4 gauge out to my amps. Is this a good plan?

OK. I have 4 gauge wire which from the chart shows 120amps. My combined amps fuses on the back of the amp are 60a + 80a = 140a. Am I correct that the 4 gauge wire is too small for both amps?

OK thanks! Question is. The fuses on the back of each amp are 60A & 80A = 140 which is more than the 120a right after the battery. Do I need to upgrade this fuse to 150A? Am I better off running a ANL fuse (1x60a & 1 80a) to each amp?

My power wire is 4 gauge with a 120A Mini ANL fuse right after the battery. I plan on using a Distribution Block to power both amps in the interior of the car (see pic). Total watts will be under 900w RMS. Is the 120amp fuse from the battery enough or should I add another fuse right before...

Thank you to all. My neighbor and I were talking and he GAVE me a 12" RF Punch P3 with a ported box. :cool: For my modest needs I am more than happy with it. It really filled in my front stage components.

I have a CRV SUV so room shouldn't be a problem although I still would like to be able to have some room.

For an amp with the modest power of 500W RMS @ 2ohm what would be better: 1 Subwoofer with 500w RMS @ 2ohm or 2 Subwoofers with 250w each = 500w RMS @ 2ohm I listen to just about every type of music there is. And I guess I want the best of both worlds with tight and boomy if that exists. I'm...

I have a single old school SoundStream Davinci DV-10 sub/enclosure I would like to run. I know back in the day SoundStream made some decent quality stuff. It is a Dual Voice Coil 1000w RMS @ 2 ohms. I'm a little older and don't need that much so I am thinking to rewire the DVC to 4 ohms which...

Soundskins Pro looks interesting as it has 3 layers: Acoustic Foam | Foil | Rubber Butyl.

Very good advice, thank you. Yes, just an amplifier install kit. I was looking at the build your own option by buying wires/parts separately. I guess I should probably go with 1/0 gauge wire in the event I would like more power. Confusing trying to find true OFC wire as everybody claims...

I'm curious as well. I've seen Noico, Kilmat & Dynamat as being some of the popular ones... but I'm open to what works best. I'm just not sure if it's preferred you use the same material for the inside and outside of the doors though. Also want to get a quality amp install kit and I am a bit...

I have a 2004 CRV that I want to upgrade the audio system. I am looking for a recommended QUALITY amplifier install kit for around 1000W. I would also like to sound deaden the front doors, including lining the inside of the door skins to improve sound quality and would love brand...
