Bronze Member Username: SleepyvwOmaha, NE USA Post Number: 31 Registered: Jan-06 | Can you help me find an amp wiring kit for my system. I have two alpine type s subs hooked up to an amp that pushes 600rms. I am interested in 4 gauge wiring. Can you recommend a reputable brand or kits. Thanks |

Could even go with 2 or 0 gauge so you don't have to upgrade if you get a bigger system.. its addictive, lol I don't really remember any kits at best buy in down town omaha, but their power caps are ridiculous.. |

jmay Unregistered guest | My personal opinion is that you shouldn't buy an amp kit unless you're looking for an all-in-one solution and are willing to pay for the convenience. If you buy the parts separately, you can save a lot of money (a whole lot if you're looking at thick cable). For example, my local welding supply shop sells 4ga cable for around $0.65/foot. Earlier this year, I bought 20 feet of 4ga and 10 feet of 2ga and paid less than $25. Figure $10 for an inline fuseholder and another $10 for connectors and you can put together a pretty good 4ga setup for around $35 (minus any RCA preamp cables you might need to buy). The wire won't be as pretty as what you find in a $100 kit but that's a non-issue unless you're doing competitions. |
