[QUOTE="Dafaseles, post: 8763295, member: 681482"] So, the size wire depends on what amplifiers you're running. Different RMS' and even different brands require different things. Max ratings mean nothing. Only look at the RMS rating. Depending on how much power you want to run, you might need another, stronger AGM battery, or 2, or even a new high output alternator. It's not just as simple as running everything off your stock battery all the time. So again, a rundown on specific equipment you're using would help. But to make it simple. Battery positive to fuse (as close to battery as you can). Fuse to distro block (preferably a fused distribution block). Distribution block the amplifiers. Then amplifiers to grounding location.
