What will happen if i try draw 75amps of current from 8awg?

[sweefu]

Hey,
i know that 8awg only carries about 50amps of current, however i want to see how my system goes with both amps running, totally 75amps of current. i am buying 4awg power wire kit next pay, so its not a long term thing i just wanted to see how it sounds. Will i screw anything straight away or would it be okay for five minutes? Or a week? What will happen?
Cheers.

i depends on how much the amps actually draw what there fused at is the mak they will drab about 3/4 of that but if u get a decent low and draw oyer the 50A u wil just blow ure fuse on the power cable hope that helps

The amps will rarely draw anywhere near maximum current and when they do it will only be for milliseconds. It'll be fine for just music until you get the 4ga.

thats awesome thanks very much guys, though the fuse on the power cable is only 60amps. i'll hook it up now and have a listen.
Cheers.

should not be too much of a drama for a short period of time mate. You may suffer a noticeable voltage loss as higher outputs on lower Hz and the cab;e may get warm. Short period of time? Yeah, I'd do it. Actually I wouldn't but you could!
