1 or 2 runs of 1/0g?

[CJL 10+ year member]

Would I NEED 2 runs of 1/0g (Knu KLMX) for ~3000wRMS(sub amp requires 200a external fuse,high amp has 100a fuse installed) ?

This is for a daily setup.

no 1 guage is good for 250-300 amps but 2 runs is always better than 1 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Are you running a battery in the back? If so, run both + and - runs from front batt to the back.

The knu wire is rated to 250a,but IIRC from what ive read in a daily setup you only use half of the amperage..?

2 runs as in 1pos and 1neg run to a rear batt should be good..here's some good reading:

2 will work better. do 1 pos and 1 neg. it'll likely help keep your voltage up not using the car chassis as your neg for those 150-200 amps.
