What size fuse on my Main goin to my distribution block to my amps??

What about RCA cables? Any brand better than the next?

If I do get the 10" w6's They are 4ohm DVC. How would I wire them to my single 1000/1 MOno block amp with out dropping my impedence to low? THanks guys.

Depends on the wire you run I may have some extra 1/0, a distro, and some fuses as well... look at knukoncepts for everything...

It started aout twenty years ago! I remember cuz I was phasing out of this stuf as they were coming in. Was going ti purchase one back in the day for my system. Had 4 12" blue thunders powered by a pair of PPI 2x150's 4 6.5" MB quarts 2 4" MB quart and $ MB quart Tweets powered by a four channel yamaha of some kind. THought I was a rock star back then. Of course my sub amps would cut out and get hot and all that jazz.........Could always impress though with the breathtaking, vision blrring bass and all my highs and mids were still crisp and nice, AHH, those were the days!

WOw so many choices. Have not purchased subs yet so.... Looking for tens, going under rear seat in extended cab truck. Yes it is a 450/4, my bad. Have 6.5 components infinity kappa up front with 4x6 plates in the rear.Steer me in the right direction!!! NOTHING is set in stone!

Been planning on going with a sealed box since I SEEM to have plenty of power. But maybe not??

You do realize that people have told you that you will be fine with the battery and alternator you already have don’t you? And I hope you can see that the guy who is telling you that you need a second battery is also some one selling batteries? A battery is for storage, starting the truck, or a little listening with the engine shut off nothing else. A second battery will do nothing for your system when driving to and from the fishing hole.

Thanks, seeing a trend for sure....So if I do the big three I should be ok with this setup......am surprised that the second batt will not help though...........

Never hesitate to chime in! I greatly appreciate any and ALL advice. Thanks.

a second battery will help with off engine listening and extra weight for traction but if you need more power it will do nothing. Power comes from the alternator.
