0 ga with Orion 2500d?

[jfsh90 10+ year member]

Interested in buying a 2500d sometime in the future, and want to get Knu 0 ga wire. But looks like they have 4ga pwr/gnd inputs.

So anyway, my question is, how do I use 0 ga wire with that amp? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/*******.gif.a649d21efc0d1fd4890a6428166586c1.gif

No need to apologize, I thought that you were kinda directing that to my question. I knew i saw a question going on the same lines of mine, but couldn't find it in the search menu.

But then I looked at other topics and saw you're doing that in alot of them.

you should run the 0 gauge into a distro block and then run 2 4/0's from that to the amp

4/0 is kind of big for that amp.

when I got my 2500d I didnt have a dist block, so I just cut back about 4" of insulation of the power/ground wire, and then just split the 0ga in 1/2, so its very close to 2 sets of 4 guage. Once wired into the amp, just get electrical tape and tape up the exposed 4 power/gnd wires and you're good to go. I had it like this for 2 weeks, until I got my dist block w/o a single problem, but it looks like crap. It'll work for you until you get a dist block.

Like all the others have already said:

Grab a 1/0 in Distro block to 2 4AWG outs.

I run 1/0 for power into a distro then 2 4 ga outs to my 2500d and i run 2/0 into a distro and then 2 4 ga out for my grounds.

just trim it down.. It wont cost anything and works great.. no need for a distro.. unless ur running 2 amps.. then dist is ftw
