    Aluminum Wire or Copper?

    FWIW, I just installed some KLM over the weekend. It isn't very flexible in a garage that is near freezing, but who cares? Also, the difference between 4awg copper and ~2.54ga KLM in amperage rating is negligible - remember most amps aren't very efficient at all and for the difference in...

    Sealed Box question

    To all that say "get something else" - make suggestions! I am not looking to spend a ton of money on this thing, I think this sub was $112 shipped. So, suggest something for either 375w at 2ohm or 600w at 1ohm.

    Sealed Box question

    I have heard that Polyfil simulates reducing the size of a box. I will have to check my sources a bit better next time. But since I have a few square feet of Ensolite left, I will use some inside this box. Jim, I haven't built a box or system or anything before, so I went on price and some...

    Sealed Box question

    I am making a sealed box for my 12" Type R and have a question. The box is ~0.95 cu. ft. gross (0.88 cu. ft. net) volume, slanted where the sub will mount, 14" wide x 14" deep x 14" tall side/10" short side. It will be run by a Cadence TXA-750D (600w RMS / 1200w Max) running at 1ohm (dual 2ohm...

    Amp fuse ratings and KLM

    The total fuse rating is 50a for the 150 x 2 (class AB) and 60 for the 600 x 1 (class D). I am right on the edge, which is why I ask about it. But I don't plan on drawing more than 100a on a regular basis because my alternator is (I think) only 85a. I just want the capability to have decent...

    Amp fuse ratings and KLM

    This is for Copper Clad Aluminum cable, though. It was my understanding that this was rated at a lower current because of its construction. As I said before, they gave me an 80amp fuse and I wanted to know if this is because they are trying to be overly safe? It is nearly 2awg and is such...

    Amp fuse ratings and KLM

    KnuKonceptz gives you an 80a fuse with the cable. This is why I ask, at full draw, my system will be drawing nearly 100A or so according to an online calculator (at "perfect" conditions). I am confident that it will work just fine and I do not plan on upgrading because I just want a nice clean...

    Amp fuse ratings and KLM

    Hello all, I have started down the road of car audio and have found a new hobby Anyways, I did do some research but cannot find a definitive answer on Knu's Copper clad aluminum KLM cable. I got the 4awg kit from them for my two Cadence amps... I have a TXA-3002 for my CDT components (150...
