KNU or STINGER FTR //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif lol i like how it says it has a lifetime warranty on it. but doesnt say much about it strand count or anything. hell i would use it probably

for 20 bucks it can't be too bad. and if it is then it was only 20 bucks. looks like knu's older cca wire to me though

I've used IMC Audio wire in one of my installs before. Worked good for me. If you are looking to save some $, its a good choice.

I used AP 1/0 for my build. OFC, but I can get 2 runs of it for less than 1 run of knu kolussus flex. I don't care how good it is, you can't beat doubling up the amount of wire.

what??? that logic makes no sense especially if it can't handle the current. but anyways, OP, I am not gonna tell you to go with Knu or any other brand but I'd atleast get a wire that you either no ppl use or you can find out what the actually current handling of wire.

How does that make no sense?

2 runs AP> 1 run of Knu and they both are the same price.

how much current does your AP wire handle? if it handles 150 or greater for each run than not bad but if it doesn't than it's just another run without any benefit.

250-300a. It's true 0 gauge, but not over sized.

Here's a pic next to 4/0:
