[QUOTE="swollen_cu, post: 7436469, member: 610236"] So I transffered all of my old sound equipment into my newer car that I got about 4 months ago and noticed something that caught my eye just recently about the wiring that I have in my car.... Here's my set up.. AQ1200 @1ohm Pair of Sa-8s JL 300/2 200A 0 Gauge wiring split to Tsunami Dist block 100A to each amp.. Old set up: Same amps.. 150A Street wires 4 gauge to the AQ1200 80A RF 8 gauge to the JL3000/2 Now my question is that is my AQ1200 getting enough current from the 100A that the dist block is putting out? I'm considering ditching the 0 gauge and going back to my old wiring set up because the Aq1200 is rated at 120A (3x 40A fuses). I don't want to do any kind of damage to my amp.It just seems like in all common sense, that the AQ amp is not getting the desired power needed.. OR can I just up the fuse by the battery to a 250A and relplace the fuse at the dist block for the AQ1200 to a 150A? Seems like the easiest if possible... [/QUOTE]
