This video is wonderful. I have been doing mobile electronics / installations for almost thirty years (professionally for several years in my late teens/early 20's) and I've watched a lot of KZfaq videos on the subject. In my opinion this video has some of the most correct/accurate information packed into a relatively short amount of time, that I've ever seen. Basically zero misinformation or bad advice. My guess is this guy has been doing this for a long time... Make sure to LIKE this video and say Thanks to the guy for taking the time to make this video and spread good advice/practices. The more people that LIKE this video, the more people that will see it! (and there will be less fires / blown up electronics in the process!)

The Fused distribution block is not for protecting the equipment. It's for protecting the wire! The fuse you have installed on any wire should always be to match that wire's length and gauge. Whenever you split the power into several smaller gauge wires, you're suppose to have a smaller fuse for each wire. HOWEVER with how short the runs are for power to your amplifiers, this isn't the biggest safety concern, and the line is still fused from the primary wire so you won't start any fires, but you do run the small risk of toasting your wires, the risk is just very minimal. Just thought I'd share

My question is what or how can I get a signal to the other 4 amplifiers I plan on having to run the 4-15 inch subs? Think you can do a table layout or drawing video on how I can pull this off. Thanx

Great video for beginners, but the one thing that is wrong, is that anytime you are wiring two or more amps, or adding signal processors, it is always advisable to use a relay on the remote turn on wire, as most remote turn leads do NOT supply enough amperage to turn on multiple components, and the head unit remote output can be damaged by the excessive current draw. The maximum output current is usually never listed by any radio manufacturers, neither is the current draw listed by amp manufacturers. Just trying to help save people from un necessary head unit repairs.

I could be totally wrong but basically when you're hooking up your power wire to your battery the reason they want your connection very close to your fuse part is because it becomes loose you don't have a hot 12 volt wire thing going around you know flopping around hitting something grounding out so whenever you put your fuse holders or fuse holder near your battery make sure that you tie your wires up so if they do come loose they don't ground out on anything so zip tied to whatever but just make sure that if it come loose it won't ground out cuz then you got a hot wire then through your whole vehicle catching stuff on fire and it doesn't take but just a split second and your s*** is on fire. Just because you got a fuse on your amp doesn't mean you don't don't need one at the battery you need them at both places cuz that the one at the battery protects the wire and like you said fuse distribution blocks a must if you got a distribution block and you have four things coming off of it and they're all different sizes you need to have a fuse for every one of your components coming off of it just cuz you have a fuse at the battery that mean you don't have to have independent fuses on each item at the back you have to fuse each one of those independently also he probably said all that I was trying to reiterate and help but the great video thank you

So I want to run 0gau to the mono, how would you suggest running my power wire/s? Would I just run 0ga all the way down to the mono and splice in a 4ga wire to the 2channel? I have all kinds of dist. blocks and Tblocks that I can use also... And if I'm able to do that, once I splice the power wire, would I then need a Anl 150 fuse for the mono and a smaller fuse for the 2channel?

Hello, I learned a lot of things in this video. I just had one question, can I put two capacitors?, one for each amp. I was thinking of putting a power distribution block with ANL fuses for powering up my 2 amps, starting with a 0 gauge wire and then distributing it in 2 of 4 gauge wires. My 2 ANL fuses, one will be 50 AMP and one will be a 25 AMP, because my 4 channel amp has a 50 amp fuse and my 2 channel uses a 25 amp fuse. So is it okay to power distribute each amp with its own capacitor. And as you said, I will also ground each amp alone in separate places and to far from each other by at least 1-2 feet.

Lessco Electronics Yeah, I actually forgot the car has a factory amplifier (Bose). So thats another 200 miliamps. In that case, I should be using a 2 amp then? Also, I heard that you should be fusing the remote lines that are going to the devices, is this true? If thats the case, then I should be using say 200 miliamp fuses for the amplifiers (I have some 250 miliamp fuses would these be okay?) and a 1 amp fuse for the battery isolator? Thanks for your response btw.

since 200ma is only 1/5 of 1 amp, the 2 amps I suggested initially is still way more than sufficient.

I have 2400w 4 channel on my subs and a 600w 4 channel on my 4 door speakers and I want too add 3 selenium horns on the outside of my car they're 250w each and do you think they can be put on the 600w with my door speakers or would they need a separate amp and would adding a 3rd amp be too much strain on my 1 yellow top optima battery

SuperAjay98 as long as the amp can tolerate the impedance change, go for it

That black and red breaker that has a button which way should the arm part be facing it to be working?
@Lesscoelectronics8 жыл бұрын
+bobman123googoo it should be at a 90 degree angle, if its at a 45 that means the breaker is open

+Lessco Electronics So if it's facing the button then it's on but if it's facing away front the button then it's off?

And dont forget try and use OFC wire vs CCa wire thats actually not as good size vs zize.

Ok so I have two Alpine amps I want to install, the MRV f300 and MRV M500 and both have set screw terminals. One takes 4 gauge and the other 8 gauge only. Is it ideal to run 4 gauge for the main power into a power distribution block and run out one 4 gauge and the other 8 gauge for each amp? Or should both wires be the same gauge? Same for ground
@mcfriedchicken19726 жыл бұрын
By set screw terminals, I mean those terminals that take wire ferrules

You should give the amp the largest gauge input that it calls for in the specifications. or as close as possible anyways...

I have a question if i use a digital top post do i still need to use the fuse holder?
@michaelpalmisano67884 жыл бұрын
Daniel Mejia yes. The fuse is there to protect the wires and the components the wires connected to in the case of a short . In the event your wire gets to hot or shorts out the fuse will break stopping the current flow to the components . Always always always use fuses. The top post terminals he's showing in this video are just other options you have to the distribution blocks. Basically all those top terminals are are distribution blocks , nothing more nothing less.

how can i wire a 4ch. amp into two front left and right tweeter and two left and right mid woofer? thanks

I assume youre using a passive 2 way crossover network with them, right?
