where can I find the reducers?

I bought 2 of them for 10 bucks on ebay. If you don't like ebay go to your local audio store. But for the price of them there it just makes you want tot trim it!

Why waste money buying some little crappy reducer when you can just trim the wire for free?

I never understood that.

aha yeaa ive had that problem. I think my RF amp actually takes 8gauge and Ive reduced the wire count of my 0 til its just enough to fit in. however i really don't like doing it because it makes the wire seem really flimsy and that it might separate at any time.

if your going to trim the wire count just MAKE SURE NO WIRES ARE EXPOSED //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

in any case i myself might look into reducers.. 0 gauge is so effin hard to work with.

Distro block? Good for future upgrades.

I never liked the reducers - they are solid and some amps may not hold on to them like they do the bare copper.
