My R23 has a little cushion that lifts off to reach the battery selector switch.. my Kicker media center also displays the voltage so I can keep an eye on that.
Yes. They use a harness with a disconnect. They dont have a direct power connection to the amp
The red and black is the power and the blue is the remote turn on. So i needed a way to connect the mb quart power 10awg to the 6awg wire so I just used wire nuts vs a distribution block. But...
On the speakers... I was referring to replacing the factory ones with the rockford M1's .. its not clear to me. If they are plug and play to the new ones, or if i need to rewire it all.
The new amp had a 10 awg harness vs running the 6awg power right into the amp.. .. I was trying to use a mechanical connector but it wasn't grabbing the 10awg wire... so i connected them with a wire nut.
I was so excited to add another amp and sub... but now I am having anxiety.. second guessing all of it.. from running the 6 awg wire... the power connections from 6 awg to 10awg. ( i just used wire nuts than wraped that in electrical tape. Wasn't sure where to run this huge cable)...
I have the following
Kicker kmc100 head unit
Kicker kxma 800.5 amplier
That drives 6 speakers and a Kicker 10" 2 ohm tube
Mb quart na4 400.1 amplifier driving the factory Kicker 8" sub in a box.
Thats all
Thanks, I did run OFC wire.. Just 6 gauge... probably at 22ft at the end of the day.. I got everything connected.. seems fine for the 400watt amp i have.. keeping fingers crossed. There are 2 30amp fuses. One at the battery and I left the fuse at the amp.. Doubt I would ever go with...
