Hi All,

I am in the market for a new amp as my current one is underpowered.

I have been looking at the Jaycar ones as they are a decent price and have a good name.

I am sure Polk etc etc etc are great and are probably better but really don't want to spend big bucks but want something decent.

Anyways, they sell at $349 each.

If, we buy 2, that goes to $315 or $279 if we can buy 5.

So, is there anyone who doesn't want to spend big bucks on an amp, but still wants something (that I think) is decent?

Ill chuck in an EOI depending on when this goes ahead. Not ready to buy untill probley around start/middle of march...

Right.

DO NOT POST IN HERE UNLESS YOU ARE EXPRESSING INTEREST IN PARTICIPATING.

Might as well throw it out there...

Ive already got an amp setup in my car, its running 8gauge wire from memory. Would it be okay for me to run a distribution block and run both amps off the 8 gauge wire?

My current amp is a Kicker ZX400.1

depends on the current draw of your kicker and of the .... jaycar amp

its a D-Class mono block amp that pushes 400 watts RMS...

well presuming that it would have a max of 50Amps. allowable threw it, and your original amp probably 50amps also. so say 100 amps total. 8guauge can probably take 60 or 70amps. id probably go to 4guage, then to a split of 2 8guage to each amp. if you where going to do so.

I have 4ga running into a distro for 2 amps. 60A fuse. No dramas

4gauge it is...

on that tadz when you put a fuse in for your new 4g wire dont put a 100A fuse in. your amps will never use that and its unnecessary, like Adrian a 60 or 70 Amp fuse will be fine.
