Default car installers: what block will fit my needs?

I have a 4ga power wire going from the battery to my currently 1 amp setup. I'm going to get another amp to power the aftermarket speakers but im looking for a fused power block that has either (1) 4 ga input with (2) 4 or 8 ga outputs. I found http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/ezcom...ze.asp?key=169 but I want to know why it has 4 fuses instead of 2, since it only has 2 outputs. Are the extra fuses for backup? If they are, then that's the block I've been looking for.

z-lite, the extra fuses are probaly for the input (2) fuses and (1) each for the the two outputs. In my opinion I would not use this. I would go with a ANL or AGU fuse holder. A few people including myself use a company called KnuKonceptz.com or find them on eBay at KnuKonceptz, very good prices.



Good Luck



John

That should be AGU for this one. remember you want a fuse about a foot or less from the battery and then one at the amp, which will be whatever the amp is rated at.




Hope that help's
