power cable

[SXi]

Hi everyone, I am new to CORSA C UK, and I have to say it has helped me massively in making minor modifications in my car. It is a brilliant site. Right now I have two MRP220 Alpine Amplifiers powering individually 2 seperate subwoofers. At the moment I am using 8 awg power cable from the battery going into a distribution block, from which I have 2 10awg wires coming out, going to each AMP. This distribution block has space for 4 outputs, and I have got another MRP220 of a mte for free and I want to use it to power my front component speakers. Will I be able to add the third 10awg powercable from the distribution block to power the amp. If these amps were high powered amps I wouldnt ask, I would change the wiring to higher awg form the battry, however considering these are all 250WATT MAX power amps, should it be okay? It will be three amps with a total of 750WATT max and around 400watt RMS running at any time. Thanks a lot for your help :)

too much writting..

brake it up with spaces, easier on the eye :P

i'd run 4awg from batt to the rear, and connect the dizzy block to the end of this

lol Soz, for writing, thanks for the quick response!

So I should run 4awg into the distribution block from the battery, and run three 10awgs from there? Thanks for you help.

I've read other peoples posts and apparantly you Martin are like the Guru of all things audio ahaha lol.

Alright then I'm gonna run 4 awg from the battery to the distribution block, then cut up the 8 agw that I have currently have running from the battery and use it to go from the distribution block to each amp! Thanks alot for your help.
