If I'm running 3 amps, 1 (mono) amp, and 2 (2-ch) amps do I have to run 3 power wires, 1 of each guage from the battery and go their own seperate ways from there? Or can I run 1 power wire like 0 gauge to a distribution block and break from there into 1 4gauge and 2 8guage wires?

Rep Power: 0 Run only one power lead from you batter to the inside of your car, then use a distrobution block to divide that power lead into more power leads to power your 3 amps.

Rep Power: 321 I am having a bad situation with theZeb right now, so until it is rectified and I get the correct item that I ordered from them I won't reccomend them to anyone.

Rep Power: 296 The attached pic should help you out.
Put a fuse near your battery like you would for 1 amp then run the power wire to your distribution block in your trunk.
I think I remember reading that its not safe to have a live wire going from your engine bay all the way to your trunk.

Rep Power: 313 Lightning Audio makes a block that is 0guage in and has 3 four guage outputs. It is not fused but this is what i use. You can either get in platinum (GD3) or gold (BD3).

Rep Power: 0 hey man, you really have no need for running all this super expensive high quality stinger cable.... if the install is done well, then it would sound identical with an inferior product... all psychoacoustics after the install

Rep Power: 321 Check out this link: Stinger Distribution Block
This is the block that I use, and if you go by the page that OyD posted you won't need a fused block because you will have 4 gauge being split into two 4 guage outputs.
