hello again, i had some one purchase a 1500 watt amp wiring kit, and in the kit, the included fuse was 60 amps, but my amp's instructions said that i needed a 150 amp fuse. can i use that 60 amp fuse, or should i purchase a 150 amp fuse?   thanks.

use the fuse specified by your amp. strange the kit came with such a low value though. to me a 1500watt kit should contain 2Ga cable and at least 100Amp fuse. if you use the 60amp fuse, it will blow when you turn the system up loud. no damage, just have to replace the fuse.
