[QUOTE="spin dB, post: 2966887, member: 571349"] The MA amps tend to be a little overrated but not by much. I would expect that you will get at least 1000 Wrms out of your amp. I don't see a problem with running that amp on 4 awg for only a 10 ft run. You should not burn the wire or pop fuses providing you supply the right size fuse. Make sure your gains are set properly. The gain is only a voltage regulator and is based on the volume of your HU. At different volume levels you will get different amounts of power from the amp, so turning it all the way down may not be the best way to get the sound you want out of the install, just set your gains with the DMM and the volume at 3/4th the way up.
