[QUOTE="macq32, post: 4937240, member: 599367"] Hey guys, I have the following speakers set up: Kappa 60.5cs (100rms) Kappa 693.7 (110rms) I was powering these with a Reference 475a amp and used a 4 gauge. I blew my amp last month and am upgrading to a Fosgate Power 1000 25 to life 5 Channel amp (about 1400w) I am also adding a 13tw5 to the D, so I am looking at putting about 900 watts through the amp. The amp suggests a 1/0 gauge. I am planning on adding a 2farad capacitor to the set up. [B] I contacted a professional who suggested that as long is my gauge is a true 4 gauge, the 4 gauge should be plenty especially with the help of the capacitor. Agree or disagree?[/B] Just trying to get a few more opinions on this! [/QUOTE]
