[QUOTE="Brad Eli, post: 8859861, member: 690006"] Hi, first timer here, I need some help for a system I am building, I have a ALPINE BBX-F1200 AMPLIFIER 4 CHANNEL (Max power 600w) and a EDGE 12" EDB12A Active Subwoofer (Peak power 900w). I’m using the cars 12v car battery and 10 gauge wire for power and then splitting it, am I right in thinking I need a 125amp fuse near the battery, 50 amp fuse after the splitter going to the amp and 75amp fuse after splitter going to the sub. Also any idea on what speakers would work with the amplifier and how to wire it would be appreciated. 50w x 4 @4 ohm per channel 70w x 4 @2ohm per channel I tried 30w 4ohm speaker and they don’t sound right. I’m assuming it needed to be higher than 50w. Thanks Brad [/QUOTE]
