450RMS - 2 amps, 8ga enough from batt. to dis blk

Wednesday, September 07, 2005 7:00 PM

Tried to fit everything in the title

I got a Pioneer X952 300RMS and a Lightning Audio Bolt B2.150.2 amp, pushing 150 RMS. I currently have 8ga going to the Lightning amp. Should I upgrade to 4ga to the dist. block and from it to the amp in 8ga?

Last Q: Are Stinger's Nitro good enough? Or should I go with the blue - and more expensive - ones?

Thanks!

Cheers,

G

8awg is good up to about 500 watts. any more then 50 amps of current draw and you need to upgrade to 4awg.

i would go ahead and use 4 awg personally...but if you got 8awg ran already then you should be ok

Overkill now to 4 gauge. You'll upgrade in the future to larger amps
