I have 2 amps. one is a phoniex gold 501, and the other a hifonics 1500 mono for subs, is 4 gauge power wire enough for both? Or what should I be using?

Well the Phoniex is about 60x4 and the hifonics is running 2 L7 10" subs at 1 ohm at the amp!

Were you talking what it needs rms?

flat 2 awg or 1/0 cable, not that i know of, it would probably be like a foot wide. Look at Knukonceptz for your wires.

And you'll need some distribution blocks as well.
