Ideally, you need the fuse inside the distribution block itself. 30amp seems awful big for that gauge wire. Maybe 5 or 10? I doubt the LC6 takes a ton of juice.
As far a which model: Base that on your budget. I'm pretty sure they have most on the wall at CAI.

What about these for door speakers: XS-65 - Image Dynamics 6.5" 2 Way Component System
Or is this overkill for what I already have?

ID speakers are good too, but with what's going on with ID now I dunno...
wrt fusing:
Replace it with an actual fused distro block.
They make combo blocks... I'm using a streetwires one:
Bottom right.

since the lc6 is probally going and possiably the eq i wouldnt change distros yet. even if you keep the eq you can always add a fuse holder a few inches off of the distro and be protected

I am ordering a pair of Diamond Audio HEX H600S component speakers from a forum vendor for the doors. That will give me all Diamond Audio speakers and AMP. I will then go to either Car Audio Innovations or Rolling Audio who are both in Roseville and have them install the speakers and check everything for correct wiring, fuses, and set up for best sound. Thanks for all your and other forum members help!
