Do I requirement bigger electrics?

I currently have a 4 guage amp gear with 8 guage distribution to my Alpine MRP-M650 powering a 12" Type R and a hoary Alpine MRV-F307 powering 4 5x7 100 rms speakers. When I install my new Alpine MRP-F550 near 4x90 rms will I need to upgrade my 4 guage to 1/0 or vary my alternator which is currently 105 amp. Also should I power the sub amp with 4 guage instead of 8?

Answers:    Ok one piece you have to know is adjectives Wiring isnt the same. That cheap wireing will articulate 4 gauge but when you look at it its adjectives insulation and the copper wire inside is resembling 8 gauge. You dont necessitate to run 0 guage thats overkill. Just go and receive yourself a nice amp kit. Kicker acutally make nice *** wiring and fosgates power series and lightning audio as resourcefully. Just take a peice of your 4 and 8 calculate wires and go and compare them near one of those brands and you see the difference. Those amps dont need a 0 indicator. Just run a nice 4 gauge take your self a capicitor instead of using the distributor block and distripute your 4 and 8 gauge wires to respectively amp with the capicitor. 105 amp altonator is more than satisfactory. I run a lot more power than that and I solely have a 95 amp altonator so you dont entail to upgrade that. Ive dont installation professionally for like 15 years immediately and yes the wire can form the biggest difference just spend a touch extra and by the good stuff the first time

8 AWG is fine for 200 watts or smaller quantity. 4 will give better power verbs.
