wiring question for my saz 1500

[Notorious97200 339]

Hi all,

I've just installed my new amp : a saz 1500. I had the saz1000 on my 15" xcon.

I did it this past week end, so I could not buy what I needed.

I used the distribution block I already had.

I have a 0 ga wire coming from the under hood battery to the trunk, and coming trough a dist block with 3 "out" : 1 for the sax50.4 amp with a 60amp fuse and the 2 others are now used for the saz1500 with a 80 amp fuse for each wire.

So, I have 2 4ga wires that goes into the bass amp instead of one 0ga from the dist block to the amp.

Is it safe ?

I did not change the ground wire from 4 ga to 0ga, but I will do it today because it might not be safe at all now!

Is it worth changing the distribution block and changing the type of fuse ? I just have simple round fuses.

Without the wire upgrades, I can say that I really have more power for my sub !!! The difference is huge, and I love it!!!

Sundown FTW !

Thanks for all your answers.

I would start by getting that ground changed. Then also change out that block for 0ga. also.

You think it's more important to change the ground rather than the block ?

I will do both today, If I have enough cash!

I wouldn't worry much about the d-block. If you have two 4 gauge wires going from it to the 1500D, it's fine. Changing the ground to 0 gauge is really all you need to do.

oh !

That's really cheaper ! I just have to buy about 1 m (3.3 ') 0 ga wire for the ground.

So, two 4 gauge wires with an 80 amp fuse for each is good. No need to change.

I like this forum : quick and honest answers from real specialists !!!

Thanks again KU40 !
