[QUOTE="THATpurpleKUSH, post: 7555101, member: 615398"] 1. The fuse should be no more than 18" from the batt this is to protect the wiring from too much current draw. If you compete, some organizations like MECA require you to have a fuse with 12" of the amp, to try and put a bottle neck on the current drawn, with the idea "to do as much as you can with as little as possible." 2. Sound deadening is to stop/lower panel resonance. You can add other materials as mentioned above to cancel/lower all outside resonances to cut down on any cancellation or phase issues that might arise. 3. I do not advise mounting the amp on the box, unless the box has been THOROUGHLY stiffened via internal bracing or resin. And use rubber feet underneath to dampen any vibrations that might happen.
