I purchased the amp from someone that bought it and ended up going
another route. The amp came with no information. I'm trying to figure
out what 12v amperage to run to the amp from the car battery. Anyone
know this?
THANK YOU!
A 2290 can draw up to 15 amps each and a 2879 can draw up to 20 amps each.
What pills are in the amp and how many?
For a 2 pill, 8 GA if short and 6 GA if over 6 feet.
For a 4 pill, 6 GA if short and 4 GA if over 6 feet.
You can ground the amp to the vehicle's frame but make sure
you run an equal size negative lead to the battery to match
the positive feed. Fuse both leads AS CLOSE TO THE BATTERY
as possible. Use STRANDED wire. Crimp and solder the terminals
to the wire. Make sure wire is secured and won't flap around.
