[QUOTE="moparerrnocar, post: 6972989, member: 624321"] Thats what I thought too, but Alpine recommended 8awg fpr both +/-, and 8 awg feeding 1000w just sounded wrong so I opted for 4 down to 6. I think I should run 0 to 4 for pwr/grnd. Then I could run as much as 2000 safely. What I should have done is just ran big 3 w/ a good bat and a big eff mono amp instead of two baby mono's lol. The only reason I have these amps is cuz I originally had two svc sony 1300w 12's that wer driven by my CF 1000d. I fried that amp and borrowed my buddies MRP500 and I liked how effi it was, I could bang full tilt for 2hrs strait and it never even got warm. He then got a kicker 750.1 and sold me the mrp for $80, Then I purchased another mrp for 150 off of Amazon and 2 4ohm type R's. I was surprised that the type R's w/ 1000w wasnt that much louder but sounded beter than my sony's at 500w and drew alot more current. I should just sell the MRP's and get a single big boy mono that can push a real 1500w @ 1 or 4ohm cleanly. I'm still open to ideas guys so let me know what amps you have experience w/.
