[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 1603175, member: 540940"] 100A continuous is a ridiculous amount of current for any amp unless you're playing test tones at full volume. A good 1500w class D is going to draw no more than 50A rms to play music LOUD. 4 ga wire with a 100-120A fuse should work fine. I use an 80A fuse for a 700w class D and 360w class a/b - both amps are under-rated and I've never blown that fuse. [/QUOTE]
