gonna change my 8AWG to 4AWG from the battery to a fuse block where it splits in 8AWG going to the two amps and the capacitor.
Since you have 8AWG going to the amps are they grounded using 8AWG as well. someone once told me that i should add a 4AWG ground wire to my existing battery should i? I have the power going to the back(4AWG power wire) 3 x rca 1 x remote left/right speaker wire for the front speaker. They also told me not to pass the rca with the power wire is this true.? Thanks in advance. Jim |

4g with some 8g splits sound pretty good to me. That's a pretty reasonable wire size for what you are going with component wise.
As for routing everything, you'll want to run the power as far away from your other wiring as posible. The reason for this is electrical interfearance. If your power gets too close to your other wiring, you could experience sound fluxuation when your car is on and in motion . . otherwise known as "engine noise" The grounding that you mantioned is equally important. You can never have too many grounds. Just make sure that when you do ground, ground to a completely bare matal sorce so that it works the best. Well, I guess that's it so far. |

i don't suppose you can make a quick diagram of how the connections to the amps/cap/fuse block will be done huh. What do you think of the quality of the cap in the picture?
Here is the description of the fuse block in the above picture also: ---Voodoo Fuse Distribution Block 2ea 4 AWG to 1ea. 4 AWG and 3ea 8 AWG Will that work for me |

You need to see how many amps which amp draws at full power...
