k pro's here's the scenerio..
i had a 600 w amp and 2 300w subs..
i got 450w subs now and i need a bigger amp for more noise..
if i go from a 600w amp to a 1000w amp do i have to change any wires, or change any fuses or anything.. ???

fuses: most likely (It really depends on the new amp.)
speaker wires: no
amp wires: If you keep the amps in the same place, no... but, then again, you might want to consider keeping the -'ve, +'ve & GRD a consistent gauge (4 ga?)

yeah i can keep all the same and i'm not gonna move it, maybe an extra inch since the new one will be bigger but nothing major..
i was just checking if i would need a bigger fuse or something like that..
thanx man.. :smoka:
