do i need to upgrade my wire?

[chrisw91 10+ year member]

i am currently running about 700 watts with my sub amp, and am going to be adding a 2 ch for my speakers (running 100 rms a piece at max). and i already have 4 awg installed under my new carpet, is this going to be enough or do i need to go bigger?

You should be concerned with current draw, not power output //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

What's the current draw of both amps?

i was going to ask the same thing but i couldnt see him drawing even near 150 amps with 900w. unless he has some os amps that are way underrated. i should of asked what he was running.
