[QUOTE="Rashaddd, post: 5635955, member: 592162"] technically most wire can take alot more than we like to put through it in car audio without burning up. The problem is in how much voltage drop you have with a certain amperage. 50ft of 1/0 gauge will drop about 1.7v if you try to pull 350 amps through it. All of a sudden that 14v you managed to get your electrical system to sustain at that current turns into low 12's by the time it gets to the amp. [/QUOTE]
