[QUOTE="helotaxi, post: 2722630, member: 550915"] The contacts on any MAXI fuse block I've ever seen are only rated for 80A. If you want to go higher than that, I would switch fuse type to either MIDI or ANL for that amp. Before you go to that trouble, hook it up with only the 80A fuse. I think you'll be suprised. For your main fuse, you can either add up everything or fuse to the 1/0 wire. 250A or less. Something else you can try (what I'm doing for my 2100HCCA right now in fact) is to not run a fuse on the sub amp and use the correct fuse size for it on the main power wire. I have a 150A fuse in my main fuse holder and no other fuse on the + wire for the 2100. [/QUOTE]
