[QUOTE="knukonceptz, post: 2144176, member: 548221"] First - He has 14.4 at the battery, so thats fine. Second, depending on the amount of draw he has. 2 gauge could be more then good. Upgrading the ground might help. Fuses inline will cause a slight loss in voltage (check voltage after your inline fuse under the hood). When you check the voltage in the rear do so with the stereo off to make sure the draw of the system does not effect this reading. When current travels through a cable the resistance in the cable causes a loss over the run of the cable. Smaller cable and higher amperage makes for higher loss. [/QUOTE]
