[QUOTE="swimfreak26, post: 804676, member: 544365"] How much power is your sub amp putting out? You don't want to cut down to 8 guage on the amp if you need 4, you'll be getting a lot less power, and running the risk of fire if you're passing too much current through too small of wire. You should either: 1) run larger wire to a distro block, then run 4 guage to your sub amp and 8 to your mids from there. 2)Run a separate 8 guage straight from the battery to your mid amp which is probably more cost effective.
