0Ga wire into a Hifonics Brutus?

[fourstaroots 10+ year member]

it seems that the 0ga wire i got from knukonceptz doesnt fit into the hifonics brutus amp... is it ok for me to snip some of the copper to make the wire fit? will this produce any harmful effects?

No that is fine to do as long as ur not cutting a ridicules amount off.... the affects would be unmeasurable

Personally, I wouldn't do it. If you do, tape it up good so nothing metal rubs on it. What must people do is use a distro block to go from 1/0 to 4 AWG for their amps, but nothing says you can't do it for just 1 amp. It's a lot less likely to cause issues that way, and a distro to change your power and I'm assuming ground wire size in/out of your amp is only like 15 bucks new. 30 bucks total for piece of mind is a nice thing.

Depends on the model of Brutus you have. Some are 4 awg inputs and some are 1/0 awg. Use the wire size that matches your amp. If you have 1/0 ran to the back, that is fine. you may just need a distro block as mentioned above.

You can trim some off, nothing bad will happen, or get some reducers.
