[QUOTE="Dj-torn, post: 7270523, member: 553398"] There is truth to that, and most on this forum will argue go bigger on your wires. My rational is simple, If 4ga is all you have to get the job done at the moment, use it, But if your have the disposable income to spend $100.00 or more on 0Ga wire then what are you waiting for, do it right the first time. In addition, I assume you will be doing some tuning to the amp, other than maxing out your gains, I further predict you will not be blasting your radio consistently, and that your car charging system does not rest at 14.4V This means that you will not be using the amps full potential and thus your 140A amplifier just went down to 130A or less. The fuses are in place to protect the wire from becoming a fire hazard. [URL="http://www.the12volt.com/info/recwirsz.asp"]Check this wire chart link out[/URL] [/QUOTE]
