Default Should i stick with my 4 awg kicker flex power wire strand or go with...

Hello, I was looking into upgrading my power wire starnd that runs from my frton battery to rear dist. Block. On my 2001 blazer 4door… I currently have a power wire strand of kicker flex 4 awg. The total rms of my setup is about1300 watts… zx1000 kicker amp (100a fuse) and cadence xnethe xa 125.2 (30a fuse) the componets are4ohm and my cadence amp puts out about 85 @ 4 ohm…. So is it necessary to upgrade my power wire starand? I was thinking of going with this welding wire… but not sure if I should go with the 2ag or 1 awg… I will not have any future upgrades what do you guys think/recommend me to go with? Unfortunately the ppl on this link: http://www.powerwerx.com/wire-cable/welding-cable.html only selltheir wire in only either 25 and 50 feet, if you now of another place where I can purchase reputable welding wire for cheaper a directlink would be great! feedback would be great thanks

from some of the stuff i've been reading i'm pretty sure you'd be fine with that 4awg run of wire to power your setup (up to 10ft of wire length). GRANTED if you feel its insufficient, upgrade to a 2awg or 1awg run OR install a second run of 4awg to allow for additional current to flow to the amp.
