Hey guys,
So I am getting ready to install a second amp into my truck and need some advice.
I am currently running 4G from the battery back straight to my current amp.
Now that I am installing a second amp I am going to install a distribution block under the console and continue the 4 gauge to the amp I have now and then run 4 gauge to the new amp as well.
My sub amp is running a 500/1000w woofer and my speaker amp is running 150rms for my comps.
So I am wondering is my sub amp still going to be getting enough power or do I need to upgrade the battery back as well?
Thanks
Keith

I would add an 8 gauge wire directly from the battery for the new amp.
