I have 0 gauge going from the battery to the trunk then to a distrubution then 4gauge out.
Ground going from amps to distrobution and then 0 gauge to chasis.
My power distro only has two outputs and i have two amps. I really dont wann a have to buy another distro and rewire my amp rack.

It is not necessary to run the dual power/ground. If you have 1/0 gauge split into 4 gauge, you should be fine if your 4 gauge run is relatively short.

I only have one 4 guage to my x1200.1, and it seems to work beautifully.
Of course I'm not trying to set any SPL records with it either.

Less then 2 feet from my distro to my amp

Not necessary but highly advised. The dual input Xenon's are not very forgiving if not fed enough current. If you have 2 feet of 4AWG split from 1/0AWG then you should be relatively safe.

I have 4/0 split to 4 gauge waiting for my recently purchased 1200 and 200.4.
