[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8631433, member: 650438"] no. If you are talking about that video from that guy that cant even pronounce tinned copper or knukonceptz or calls CCA KCA and says OCF instead of OFC.... Idk if you should be listening to anyone like that for any car audio advice..... Also because the tests are around 4 gauge and he used junk braded welding wire. I can tell you there is no easy way you are getting through the jacket of either the royal or eb flex 2/0 without some bolt cutters let alone some weak sand paper. Its actually a pain in the @ss when you have 4/0 welding cable, nothing cuts through it easy, takes a fkton of work just to cut because of how thick and hard it is. You definitely dont need any kind of protection or loom at all. tell you the truth i dont even run rubber grommets for my 4/0 welding cable, all that sharp metal edges havent even put a scratch on the insulation the past year. You need to remember, welding cable is highly regulated with much higher standards of quality than car audio cable which has zero regulations. Consider the work conditions of both, which one needs more current to pass through with less resistance? which is exposed to heat for a much longer period of time? Which is used on a shop floor a majority of the times? Vs what? being ran through a fire wall? being in an engine bay? psh. [/QUOTE]
