[QUOTE="paikiah, post: 347996, member: 545724"] you have it backwards, my friend. Batt to batt should be 0/1 gauge. (Do this for BOTH POSITIVE and NEGATIVE!!! VERY IMPORTANT!!!) THen rear batt to amp should be 4 gauge, if it's short. If it's long, then you need at least a 2gauge for safety measures. Make sure you put an inline fuse between the amp and the rear batt positive terminal (the fuse must be as close to the rear batt positive terminal as possible). As for ground, make sure you use the same size gauge wire as the positive wire TO the rear batt. [/QUOTE]
