Could this be wired with an 8 gauge amp kit? or will 10 gauge only fit the connector?

You could use 8g but the amp can only intake a 10g. I just bought a 10g Rockford wiring kit as it extends the warranty on the amp from what i understood. Its a great amp by the way. Just mount in a area where it will get.air as it gets hot.

I can't remember how big the openings are because I don't have the amp anymore, however, if you already have 8 ran, might as well just use it. Trim the wire to size if you need to. Bigger is better than smaller

Yes, that is what I use and it works with no problem, would be better to use 8 gauge 4 is a little big for the ports.

Hi Nick. I have not seen connectors like this given a size (#8 or #10) so cant answer your question in the format you asked. It it helps, I looked at the strip and you could get anything from a solid or a stranded 12g to 22g wire into the hole though would probably tin the light duty stuff before putting it in so it had better stiffness and firm grip.

I believe I connectd mine to a 10 amp, but I don't think it really matters.

Yes it would.I'm running two of these.One on an 800 watt 4 x 10 and the other is driving a 500 watt 1 x 18,both at 4 ohms with zero effort.I played a gig recently in a small room and I didn't need to turn the volume past two.It 'll run your 8 x 10.I also use one as a DI when I record.Great sound.

I used a spade terminal with 10 gauge wire and it fit fine. Don't use the ring terminals or you'll have to take the screw completely out.

No, stock circuit 10 amp will not support it. So, i had it connected directly to the battery via a separate line with 30 amp relay.I purchased a the kit through the same vendor that offers it as an option.

I don't see why not. You just put the 15 Amp fuse in place of a 10 Amp one. Just make sure you're not overloading the circuit as the wiring is probably designed for certain combined amperage

The technical answer depends on the distance from your battery to your amp. As long as it is less than 15 feet of wire (quite likely, unless you are installing it in the rear end of a Suburban - then it's dodgy), 8 gauge is plenty to give you less than a 3% voltage drop. From 15-30 feet, you should use 6 gauge. 4 gauge is really overkill unless you are in the 30-50 foot range, which you'd never come close to, unless you're installing this in a motor home, and even then you wouldn't hit 30 feet unless you're installing it on the opposite end of the vehicle from where the battery is.

the one I purchased was a 12 and a half gauge I used a 12 gauge wire in it it worked fine so if you're says 8 or 9 gauge it should work fine just double check and make sure its not 12 and a half

I am not sure about the guage of the wire...It looks like this kit is ok for car amp's that are less than 400 watts max output.I would not recommend it for high output amps.

I'm sure it would. However, I suggest you go with a higher quality amp kit. The Boss 8 gauge kit will be cutting it close and it might cause heat issues. Go with a higher quality kit, such as Knu Konceptz, and make it a safe setup in your vehicle.

judging by the wire size not a lot i wouldnt go more that 10 amp unless you use it to drive a spdt 30/40 amp automotive relay

should not be a problem.... running mine with a separate amp driving two 10" subs..

while I can't be sure, my previous experierance with one from a different manufacture appeared to be 12-gauge, all the connectors with all the leads the same, presumably so it can be use as a multi-input to single out or vise versa depending on your needs

If it is wired properly you should only need a 10amp fuse. If there is too many items on the supply line then it may blow fuse. It should be listed in the instructions what the max fuse size is

I doubt it. I used 12 AWG and it was very tight. You would probably have to trim the 8 AWG wire down to get it to work.
