[QUOTE="audiobaun, post: 8662406, member: 634282"] You should be fine with the supply wire you have for the amps you are wanting to run so you dont have to rip it back out and replace it.OFC is better wiring compared to CCA,but CCA will work just fine.Short runs of OFC to the amps from a fused distro block is fine as well.Be sure to fuse at the battery for the supply wiring accordingly as well. Use the same size ground as your supply and ground to the frame of the vehicle is best.You can run a solid distro block for easy connections for grounding amps.Id recommend you do the Big 3, if you havent done so already.I recommend on any vehicle for any after market system.You should be able to pull up a You Tube Vid to watch on how easily to do that,its worth the extra $40-60 bucks.Be sure to check your battery connections ect approx.every 3-6 months for corrosion. You may want to give yourself an extra 6-8" oneach connection so you can refresh them over time to clean wiring for a fresh connection.But you should be fine with what you are running. [/QUOTE]
