i know that i will be going with a rockford t20001bd mono amp for my subs....it takes 1/0 awg wires.....and then i think i will be getting the lowest powered 4 channel amp from rockford...but still the power series not punch or anything else.....and it also takes 1/0 awg....would i run 2/0 awg to a dist. block...and then split that down to (2) 1/0's???

okay..i did not know i could do that....but if i use a dist block...and i need two 1/0 awgs....what would i need goin to the batter....2/0 awg//or bigger...doesnt it need to be double??

these amps are pretty dam powerful so they will need some big wires

1/0 gauge is thicker than 2 gauge.

oops my bad. i didn't see you put 2/0 gauge. nevermind. i thought you were talking about 2 gauge. lol. its late.

2/0 gauge to the distribution block should be fine. i don't know why i was thinking you were talking about going with 2 gauge.
