Most electronics come from china anyway so why not get them directly from the source without the added taxes, also I’m not in a hurry.Volt meters you can get at Amazon as well for a decent price. Might want to check there instead of Ali Express which will take some time to get to you even in the UK.
Also I would go with 1/0 OFC or welding wire if you ever decide to go up to 1 ohm so the wiring is done plus that is what they recommend for that amplifier in the manual from what I am seeing. Same with the ground wire as well. Personally I use ANL fuses as I can get them from Sky High on Amazon in 10 packs for around 10-20 bucks depending on the size. Also a distribution ground for future upgrades if you decide to ever add a 4 channel amplifier for any speakers in the car in the future.
Thanks a lot for the info, I was thinking about future proofing this build since from what I’ve seen from my buddies, there’s never enough bass and you always want more.
I’m not sure I can add a distribution block to my battery since it has a distributor on top on both power and ground (pic from Google but very similar to mine):
And I was going to use an ANL fuse but what amperage fuse should I use? From Ground Zero's website they have a 0AWG kit with a 300A fuse, but from some calculators online for 2000W at 12v a 180-200A fuse should be more than enough.
I am also thinking about upgrading the speaker system with an amp and the Nav I’m about to add to the car has a built in DSP but I’m not sure how good it is. Also I was told by someone that in order to add subs I’ll need a Hi-Low thingy as I have a CIC system and not a standard stereo, is that something I should look into?
