Wiring Help Needed
well I have parts to a system sitting around my apartment which include some Alpine component 6 1/2's and Alpine two way 6 1/2's along with a Alpine Mono Amp and a Alpine 4 Channel Amp. My questions are as follows:
1. Would this wiring kit be good enough for both amps?
2. If I wired up just my components and rear speakers with the capacitor and the 4 channel amp would I have to change the fuse in the distribution block or could I just leave it with the one they sent with it?
Thanks in advance!

Yes that kit is sufficient for those amps. You may have to change the fuses depending on the fuse rating of the amps. The manuals for the amps should give the recommended fuse ratings. You then should add those 2 ratings together and that will be the size of fuse you need under the hood. I would guess the 4 channel will take about a 30-40amp fuse and the mono amp will take upwards of 80amps (I'm sure this is the biggest fuse you can get for that holder) so that would mean about 120amp fuse under the hood.
