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 |

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 |
