[QUOTE=">>SQL<<, post: 7944668, member: 633661"] Why? Jl does not agree with you and they made the amp. How would having a fuse at the battery and a fuse at the amp make a difference? Right from the manual for this amp right from JL's website 2) Run 4 AWG power wire from the battery location to the amplifier mounting location. Take care to route the wire in such a way that it will not be damaged and will not interfere with vehicle operation. Use 2 AWG or larger power wire and a power distribution block if additional amplifiers are being installed with the XD500/3. 3) Connect power wire to the positive battery post. Fuse the wire with an appropriate fuse block (and connectors) within 18 inches (45 cm) wire length of the positive battery post. This fuse is essential to protect the vehicle. Do not install the fuse until the power wire has been securely connected to the amplifier. OP one fuse close to the battery is just fine. [/QUOTE]
