[QUOTE="jerryp., post: 8133180, member: 654616"] Fuse your 4(ga) 18in within the battery, don't fuse the speaker leads, set your gain right, use a speaker wire anything between true 12 to 16ga. You're set. The rest is up to you. Where to mount the crossovers and how to run the cables. If there was a short the inline fuse would most likely blow before reaching your amp. And if not, it would most likely go into protect. Don't sweat too much on the speaker wire. [/QUOTE]
