what part of the states are you in? if your going to run 2 amps i would use 4 awg wire to the dist block then 8 awg to the amps.

i'd go with the 4 awg. then use the 8 awg that you already have from your dist block. I sell audio stuff but i don't think i could sell you a block cheap if i ship all the way to Cali. I'm in florida. try Wal-mart some times they have some stuff like that.
