[QUOTE="UrbanSounds, post: 3330259, member: 556553"] Ok So I hooked up a 1800 watt mono block PT amp. I used a 100 amp fuse in the front with 4 ga wire, which hooks up to a dist block with 80 amp fuses. From the dist block im using 8 ga to the amps. After a week the subs went out and everytime i would hook up a new pair it would blow them out. So now im going with a smaller 1600 watt PT amp, which is about 550rms, and its going to be pushing two cvrs 10". Is the above wiring correct and also the fuses. or should i go with a anl fuse in the front by the battery. Because at this point any fuse i put in the dist block it keeps going out, regardless of which amp i use. There is no short anywhere, not wires being pinched...[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif[/IMG]:confused:[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif[/IMG] not sure what else it can be. Help me out guys. And dont ask why im using a PT amp, thats what the customer wants. thanks [/QUOTE]
