[QUOTE="ahole-ic, post: 6783243, member: 619324"] Don't be lazy. You will at best pop the fuse on the power wire of that amp or at worst burn the car to the ground. Bigger wires don't make things sound better. Each wire has resistance. The longer the wire the more resistance and the smaller the wire the more resistance. You have a very long and very small wire. This means it has high resistance. You're wanting to draw MORE current through it than it is already doing. That is a VERY poor idea. Run new power wire. You're going to have to run rcas anyway so it's not really a big deal. [/QUOTE]
