Hi everyone, I know this gets posted allot so I will be straight forward and give you all my information and what I require.

I just purchased today a nice pair of subs, or so I think...lol,
Well this is what I got:

2 10" Infinity 1030w subs 250w RMS and 1000 MAX
1 MTX MXA6001 class D mono amp to power them 300RMS @ 4Ohms, 600RMS @ 2Ohms
There in a sealed box by the way

This is what I would like to know:
1) What gauge wire should I use to hook from the subs to the amp?
2) What gauge wire I should use for the remote turn on?
3) Where is a good place to ground the amp?
4) What would be a good RCA cable to use? Should it have features like twisted or super shielded...lol...I duno just giving examples to help better answer my question.
5) Since the subs are only 250RMS would it be better for me to wire them in 4Ohm, or 2Ohm based on what the amp provides.
6) What style fuse should I use, AGU or ANL? And what AMP rating?
7) Last if anyone can give me some ideas on how I should run my wiring across the celi, through the center console, or side panels? Id be happy biggrin.gif

If anyone could help me with these many but hopefully simple to answer questions that would be awesome. I am a newbie at this but I enjoy a challenge.

nah im not mad, ask as many questions as you want..... the break in period is sort of a myth..... some do it, some dont.... its up to you.. i am a little Iffy on the myth.... some say to wait 8 hours at medium or less volume... but i usually do an hour if that a medium or less volume... also... to set your gains.. an easy way to do it...... set Everything to flat... -0 etc... turn it up at a good moderate level and set it from there...turn the gains up til it distorts and turn it down slowly to get a good even level.... then turn the subs off and do this with your speakers... esentially you want a Oscilliscope and an RTA and some other tools to Correctly set your gains, but to get your hands on that you need some major cash or a Really good hook up... but the other way is fine.... just listen by ear..
