What gauge cable for this amp? Please help!

[Cclodbuster2017]

I am adding a subwoofer to my system but keeping the factory speakers. This is the amp I bought:

Do I need a 4ga amp kit or an 0ga amp kit? If the cable isn't big enough could it cause a fire?

They come with owners manuals for a reason.

Efficient design only requires the use of 4 gauge power and ground cables.

Use OFC cables in the stated 4awg size, 200a fuse. OFC because it is better then the less expensive alternative.

Or welding wire works really good as well. Just don't use cheapo OFC wire or welding wire like soundbox or some other chinese garbage.

Yes Sky High is nice stuff. Check amazon as well for that kit as they sell it to iirc.
