2nd run of 1/0 worth it?

[nathan55 0]

I got the wiring already so would a 2nd run benefit me? I'm running a 240a alt, xs power d3400 up front, big 3 and 2 kitneik hc2400s in the back. Soundqubed 4500. I just hear many different things and not sure if it would be worth my time.

 

Thanks guys

I would measure voltage drop front to back(on a demanding song, of course). That would be the easiest way to see if it's needed and you would know for sure, instead of just hearsay.

Doubtful.  Depends on why.

^^what you mean

Measure volts at front and rear while playing loud. But if you already have the wire you mite as well run it

It is doubtful you will see any benefit.  Why do you think you need it?

I see many others doing 2+ runs and it would help reduce resistance but will I gain? Idk 

[///M5 2,833]

You will gain the expense of running a 2nd run.  As for other gains that depends on exactly what you mean.  You won't hear anything....

Maybe I'll gain a few tenths.

My wire is rated at 350a at a 20ft run according too Jon at sky high. My amp is 400a and I highly doubt in pulling 400a with a 240a alt. But ppl say to run another run bc I'll gain and more power, better voltage. 

 

Who knows

Dude just run it then. End thread

Or how bout a ground run instead? Lol

[frogcase2002 393]

Why dont you test to see if there is alot of voltage drop?

[///M5 2,833]

Do you care about tenths lol??

[nathan55 0]

Maybe....lol not really. Sorry fellas.

 

Voltage doesn't drop below 13.1

[///M5 2,833]

No reason to be sorry but unless we I ow why it is hard to help

[hdrox88 142]

Is that 13.1v at the alt or the amp? See what the difference is between those two points and go from there.

That's at the amp
