Fuse size

1/0 ofc will carry 300 amps over 20 feet in a 12v application.

It will carry 500 but heat and voltage loss isnt acceptable.

With a 5% loss 260 amps freeair.

When are you going to do an impressive build? Your so knowledgeable you should compete and set world records everytime u hit the play button. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

maybe, but i would expect some voltage drop

you're not any better recommending he put no fuses at all in

The chart. Does it take voltage into the question?

Fuses are lame. Run straight wire.. and no boomin u don't want dual 175amp fuses. That amp would pop those most likely.
Dual input fusing is not an addition game. Example is if the manufacturer recommends 350amp fusing, then fuse both runs for 350a. Each wire is more than likely not going to see equal amperage draw. One wire may draw 200a while the other draws 150a and that's if you somehow reach the full amperage draw that amp can support.

Pretty sure if you read what I said I did recommend fuses... but I have zero fuses in my truck for my car audio. Been a few years now and no fires... fuses are for the wire not the equipment

My car is impressive. With drivers ive built.

The divers i have now are built around low distortion i wouldnt expect to set any records with them although in the right install they are capible of some serious output.

Im going to enter a show soon. Not many shows here anymore. Never was honestly. My car sounds good on everything from pink floyd to bass mekanik.

I have a widerange of music im going to demo.

The systems buikt to sound excellent and get louder than most people can handle.

Lower tbe voltage the less ampacity.

Your wrong. You don't use 2 350a fuses. The wires share the load. Two 175s would be enough.

No because one wire could pull 200a and one could pull 150a.. then one fuse would pop.

Dude. Im telling you its called load sharing. The resistance between the wire is going to be marginal. I do it everyday.

MECA is all over LA. Don't lie

I'll get a demo and bring a score sheet with me. I'll be honest

You really don't want to see what you don't want to see do you? There is one in a few weeks.

the only one i know about is usaci and its in june.

i'm sure ill hit a 145 legal and place in the SQ comp. wish i had a SUV the trunk is killing output.

vision blurring for 1 15 isn't bad and that same 15 has so much bass up front i sometime turn it off to make sure m not killing my mids. the mid and sub blend very nicely.
