[QUOTE="perfecxionX, post: 6151811, member: 572854"] Actually you dont have to connect both terminals. Your amp's manual says this on page 6 [URL="http://www.directeddealers.com/manuals/og/orion/47505_Orion_HCCA-D1200_Owners_Manual(05-06"]http://www.directeddealers.com/manuals/og/orion/47505_Orion_HCCA-D1200_Owners_Manual(05-06[/URL]).pdf You would only need to use both terminals if you were running 4 gauge from your battery. A single run of 1/0 should be enough. Also, remember that if you ever reduce wire size that you need to fuse the smaller wire, so when buying a distribution block it usually just makes more sense to buy a fused distro block. Something like this would allow you to run the main power wire into both inputs of the orion and into the input of the kicker.
