Here's what I have! Autotek Stealth XS1600x rated at 1500 RMS and a PPI AX400 at 100X4 for at total of 1900 Watts RMS. My question is....Should I use 0 or 2 Gauge wire for the power! I want to minimize the voltage loss! I'll be running it approx. 20 feet!!

I would have to say use ar least o gauge cable cause thats a lot of power over a very long distance. Have alook at the power cable chart
