So, I am thinking of upgrading my sound either in the spring or on a random warm weekend over the winter.
I think I have pretty much everything I need from a system I pulled from a previous car (except for needing 2 more door speakers and line out converters to use with the stock head unit)
Here is my question. In my previous car I ran two amps to run 4 door speakers and a sub and hence a dual amp kit (4 gauge main power cable with 60a inline fuse thru a distribution block out to two 8 gauge wires to the amps) In the Ranger I am not doing a sub, so what should i get for a power cable? I assume my current 4 gauge with 60a is too much for a single amp running door speakers? Should I get an 8 gauge power cable and a smaller inline fuse (actual amp has a 25a fuse)?
