New member Username: CannuckPost Number: 9 Registered: Jul-05 | Ive got a kenwood head unit, kdc-x717, four pioneer 6.5" speakers which are running off a kenwood 8401 amp, and sirius satelite radio in my car, i am putting in a jl audio 300/2 amp to run two 12" mm120's(svc, 500 watt rms 100 watt max) and i know im am seriously undderpowering them but i need to get a good cheap amp kit for it. i am keeping the other amp for the speakers in there and was wondering if you guys could tell me which amp kit i would need that would cover everything so i wouldnt have to buy it at the overpriced store, they want like 100$ for an amp kit and i know i can get it cheaper. thanks for the help |

Bronze Member Username: CannuckPost Number: 12 Registered: Jul-05 | Any one help please, i have no idea which amp kit i need, is a 4awg kit or somehting lower or higher and why are these only 30 bucks instead of like 100 at the stores, and info on a d-block that would work with my system please. thank you |
Silver Member Username: JronPost Number: 105 Registered: Jul-05 | run 4 gauge from battery. 8 gauge to both your amps. knokonceptz.com just don't hike their prices, look into cardomain for d-blocks. You may want to go ahead and save yourself some trouble on the wiring. run 2awg gauge from battery, and 8 gauge to both amps. the reason i say this is because in the future you will have to upgrade to at least 4awg to properly power your subs. look for a d-block that accepts 2awg input, and has at least a 4awg output, with a 8 awg output. |
