you dont need a distro block. rovin prolly got confused and thought you were runnin 2 amps.

get a 0 awg amp installation kit. the one at knukonceptz is very very nice but its 80 bucks.

you buy a dist block just in case you get another amp you know for your components buy it now so you dont have to later..

not zero. i mean 1 awg.

but you can run the 4 awg wire if you want. that would work fine

B told me to get a dist. block too dont you need one if your amp has two power terminals i really dont know they had me so confused earlier. Why is that kit from knukoncepts so expensive is there any cheaper ones? thanx.

for 1400 watts its rec. to use a 2 awg tho so 2 would be ur best bet but 4 if you cant get one :-)

and it doesnt matter if you buy it now or later. it doesnt take long to set up. he never even mentioned anything bout components

So a 2 gauge amp kit would be best and run it strate through with no dist block. I dont mind buying the 0 gauge kit if thats what i need also will the kit come with a fuse or do i need to buy one? Also i baught the amp from B in that group buy and i thaught i made it clear that i was only wiring one amp and thats where i got confused...

like i said... i would ask B and Rovin why they said that because i dont understand why unless u were gettin another amp...

2 awg would be the best for the amp. ur fuse should be around 175- 200 MAX

Bassman i looked up the amp on a couple of sites and it says it has 4 gauge power connectors so maybe thats what B was saying?

i dunno, i think that means it can accept 4 awg wiring. i dunno tho... best bet is to ask him (B)-- why he said u need a distro block
