it says specifically that i should use 0/1 gauge wire for the power and ground leads, what if i stay with my 4 gauge, lol my lights dimm pretty badly right now and it recommends a 150 amp fuse and im useing an 80 amp can i dammage anything if im useing the 4guage rather than the 0/1 gauge..

oh yea, does anyone have a (remote) electronic bass control for the thunder series amp they would like to sell to me?

for the bass control go to your local car audio store and ask for one and they should have a generic one or you can buy one off ebay

i have 4 gauge on my 1501d.....i have a 110amp alt and 2 red tops...my voltage is steady at 13 volts witht he bass dropping and the amps only heats up after 30 min of abuse at 1 ohm.....you'll be fine with 4 gauge....wouldnt hurt to upgrade...probly let the amp run a lil cooler but thats about it.....
