Power Cable is 4 awg fine???

[AKA-Andrew 0]

I have got my install sorted now equipment wise, now need the wiring sorted out. I have:

 

 

1 x Alpine MRV T500, 2 x 50 wRMS @ 4 ohm

 

powering

 

1 x Set of Infinity 6500cs components (90wRMS@4ohm)

 

 

And

 

1 x Alpine MRV T1000, 2 x 100 100 wRMS @ 4 ohm or 1 x 400 wRMS @ 4 ohm

 

powering

 

2 x Kenwood Tornado Subs (150wRMS@4ohm)

 

 

Is 4awg suitable for this application, also I may add another set of components and amp of the same spec, would 4awg stil be suitable then.

 

I was also thinking of using 12awg speaker cable, i'm guessing that this is fine.

4 AWG is plenty for that spec.

 

If you want to future proof it, run a length of 2 guage up to the boot and split it off from there.

0 awg is going to far then??

 

found this kit that was going to use if 4awg was too small:

0 is fine if you're pumping 1000s of watts into subs.....otherwise 2 or 4 guage is plenty.
