[QUOTE="VWBobby, post: 7052704, member: 624844"] If the amps have fuses built into them, then technically you only need a fuse within 18" of the battery and that's it. Some people like to fuse the battery, distro block, and have the fuses in the amps themselves. This is so if you have a short in one of the wires coming from the distro block, it'll pop the fuse at the block and not your main fuse(s) at the battery. You can also run 2 + runs from your battery with a fuse on each one and not run any distro block. I have (1) 4ga run for my sub amp and a 2nd 8ga run for my speaker(s) amp. [/QUOTE]
