[QUOTE="StuartV, post: 1936679, member: 568133"] I did talk to them about it at length on Saturday, during the process of explaining that I really preferred it to be re-done. Their only explanation was that that is normal for how they do things and that it would be a pain in the butt to run the speaker wire into the doors. The amp is fused at 25 amps per channel. If the amp has 45% efficiency, that means it could be putting as much as 11 amps of current through that 20 (or maybe even 24) ga. factory wire. That just doesn't seem safe to me. And, of course, the amps could possibly be a fair bit more efficient than that. [/QUOTE]
