[QUOTE="dextermanx, post: 8262139, member: 661063"] Hi there. I found this site when looking up info for subs and amps (this one being on the first page 1/2 the time). I'm new to the site, but not exactly new to the car audio scene. I am getting one of my first REAL sub-woofer setups and I was just curious as to how I should go about wiring it. (so I don't end up ruining something [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG]) Im going to be installing a 15" MA Audio Hardkore sub (5,000 RMS / 10,000 Max) and a 2000W Powerbass amp (Powerbass ASA 1000.1DX, I believe). First question is, do I need to re-wire my car for this? I was told that instead of a cap, I just needed to re-wire my system to 4-gauge (including my amp, battery, and alternator).
