    I have a Hifonics Brutus BRZ1200.1D Brutus Series Monoblock Class D Car Amplifier and I need to run two S10L5 Kickers. The kickers are 450 rms so I need to run them at 2 ohm so I am pretty sure I need to wire the kickers in parallel. I need some wiring help, If someone could write up a diagram that would be awesome. I also have an 300 watt amplifier with two polk audio 100 rms speakers I need to hook up in the mix or do I hook them up separate? This is my first somewhat big system so any help would be much appreciated.

    here are the mono block stats

    RMS Power Rating (@ 14.4V):
    4 ohms: 450 watts x 1 chan.
    2 ohms: 900 watts x 1 chan.
    1 ohm: 1200 watts x 1 chan.
    MOSFET power supply
    Wired HFR-3 remote bass level control included
    LED power (green) and protect (red) indicators
    Variable Bass Boost (0 to +10 dB bass boost at 45 Hz)
    Mono channel operation
    Preamp RCA outputs to daisy chain multiple amps
    4-Way System Protection circuitry (thermal, overload, speaker short and DC protect)
    Heavy duty aluminum alloy finned heatsink for maximum heat dissipation
    Silver-plated unbalanced RCA level inputs
    Silver-plated molded screw terminals
    Input sensitivity:
    Input Level (Unbalanced): 0.2V-9V
    Input Level (Balanced): 0.04V-18V
    Variable low-pass filter (35-250 Hz, 24 dB/octave)
    Subsonic filter (15-35 Hz, 24 dB/octave)
    Phase Shift: 0-180°
    Damping factor: >290
    Frequency response: 35-250 Hz
    CEA-2006 compliant amplifier
    Dimensions: 14-5/8"L x 9-1/4"W x 2-7/16"H
    4-gauge power and ground wiring is required for installation

    And here are the kicker stats

    10-inch Solo-Baric L5 subwoofer
    Vacuum-formed, ultra-rigid design with vented 360-degree back bracing
    450 Watts RMS (900 Watts peak) power handling with 2-ohm impedance
    24-100 Hz frequency response

    Now I need to know what kinda of in line fuse I need and the gauge the power and ground have to be. I know the speakers have to be at least 16 gauge.

    I'd use 14g at the very least. I ran 12g in my truck.

    depends on length. That page has a calculator to see loss in voltage, watts, and volume in Db loss.
