Here is a rather simple question that maybe someone could answer?

I am planning to have a set up as follows:

[Battery]
|
| (4 awg) x amp fuse?
|
[Distributor block]-----(10 awg) y amp fuse?-----[Pioneer 2x60W RMS amp]
|
| (10 awg) 20A fuse
|
Infinity Basslink (200W RMS)

I'm wondering what amp rating fuses I should use between the battery and distributor block? And what to use between the distributor block and 2x60W RMS amp for door speakers?

For fuses, use the size recommended by manufacturer. If the amp has fuses on it use that size.

For the front by the battery, add the sizes of all your fuses up and use that size
