it depends on the RMS power rating of that 760watt amp... im assuming that its 4 channel so it couldnt be more than 40-50 watts/channel RMS at 4ohms, which means about 200-300 rms total. then add the 200rms from the basslink and you have a combined total of 500rms... make it 600 to be on the safe side.

to make it easy, what i would do is run a 4 ga. wire from the battery with a 100A fuse to a distribution block. then run 8ga wires to the amp and the bass link. if you really wanted to over do it, you could also put a smaller fuse inline with each of the 8ga wires for added protection, but imho its overkill.

might also want to look into running a capacitor since youll be running more than 1 amp. 1/2 farad would do the job
