Default Power to amp(s) question

I have installed a 9815 and did not have the foresight to think about powering any future stuff. Now I am about to need power to a autobahn 26oqi (150*2) (in trunk) for bass and also looking ahead at powering another amp for speakers. When I installed the 9815, I came from the battery with 10 guage - can I power one amp from this or do I need to go back to the battery again and if/when I go to two amps - same question.

Thanks in Advance

use this calculator to figure out your needs

it comes from http://www.bcae1.com/wire.htm


generally speaking. yes. if you plan additional amps, use the calculator to estimate the main run, then plan to add a distribution block in the future.
