its not really a dilemma, but I'm ripping out my old 4 Ga. power wire(distributed to 2 8 Ga. powers) because kevin sent me an RD1000.1 amp (merry christmas to me !). obviously running 1000 watts continuously on an 8 Ga power wire won't do.
so i was wondering, can I take a 0/1 Ga. power, distribute it to one 4Ga. (going to the RD1000) and one 8Ga.(going to my highs amp), and then have a 4Ga. ground coming from the RD1000.1 and an 8Ga. ground from my highs amp?
i guess what im asking is would my car's electrical be ok if i did this? I already upgraded the Big 3, so im almost + that i'll be fine, just wanted the ok on here first. |

still need that box for the cvr 15's?
if so what dimensions do you have to work with and what tuning would you like? |

well i would like the tuning to be somewhere around 37?
oh and I'm not putting it in my current car, but in a blazer soon.
so space limitations aren't really a problem because it won't need the entire back end.
but i was thinking of specs... i only went into looking at the kicker specs for the box, and not really building my own.... |
