Another quick question here, i am going to be buying some PG RSd's. And i plan on buying this amp:

What power wire gauge should i use? I am using 4 gauge for my 1000w amp but should i stick with 4 Gauge with this smaller amp? or just buy 8 gauge for this amp. And i am a newb with two amps, just to be clear i NEED to run another power wire to the new amp?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

I'd get a distribution block and run 8ga from there.

+1, as long as you dont have 50 ft of 4 gauge ran then you should be fine with a dist. block.

Cool, how much are you selling for them shipped? I need a dist. block that has one in 4 gauge, and two out 4 gauge and one 8 gauge.
