8ga to speaker amp

really short run, battery in trunk.

150 is fine, you could do a 140 if you could find it, to protect the wire from over draw.

the absolute most I would use on 4ga is 125 amp for lengths of 10-20'. Under 10' you're prolly okay @ 150 amp.

If your batt is in the trunk (where its easy to switch) I would suggest upgrading to 2ga. Think of it as having head room for you current draw.

That's fine, a fuse is a fuse.
