If it's used for what it's really for, yes they work. But 99% of installs will see no benefit from using a cap. They are not for helping dimming headlights.

Get the AudioTechnix. Bullz's wire is a bit smaller than rated if I remember correctly, plus it's CCA and you DON'T need the cap. The price difference isn't much anyway.

The AT looks like a fair price, I have no experience with their wire. I'd go with the AT over the bullz for sure.

If you need the speaker wire and RCA's I'd get it. If not I might look into just ordering what you need from knukonceptz.com

That is completely false, usually fusing puts you in a different SPL class. You can put whatever fuse you'd like on a bigger wire.

Here's a better question... What is the fuse rating for your amp?

And since you have a truck, you could order everything separate and probably get it cheaper since you won't need quite as much power wire length.

even a knu konceptz cca 4 gauge kit, is only rated for like 60 amps.. it doesnt take much to exceed that.. if its in your budget get the biggest and best wire you can buy if you ever decide to upgrade you dont have to buy again or reinstall...

It's rated 80A, but seeing that my amp for my front stage uses 50A alone, 80A isn't much at all... It's good for about a 1000w class D if you're lucky

 

[Wanacustomx 10+ year member]

are you sure its 80A i just installed one in a jetta like 2 months ago.. hmm maybe im wrong idk..but yeah i put a hifonics hfI 1000d on it and it was maxed out for amp rating..

HFi series is crap... Believe me, look at my sig lol. Inefficient POS that puts out barely half rated power and is current hungry...
