I have Raptor 4guage installed right now, but I have some Knuconceptz 4guage too, laying in my garage. Any difference between running raptor versus the knu?

raptor is crap. i bought a 1/0 raptor kit via ebay. the worst wire ive ever seen. it was id say a good 8 g wire with 1/2 inch jacket around it.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

The knukonceptz wire is huge, almost too huge. I had alot of trouble trying to get it in the 0 gauge fuse holders. But it is some high quality stuff

My Tsunami 1/0 is same size as Kicker HyperFlex 1/0. The Kicker probably has like 100 or so more strands but so what...

But Knu Kol > others

I disagree. Kicker is at least the same as the Knu or larger, but is MUCH more flexible. If you have a really cramped engine bay, the Kicker is a godsend.

What im asking is if I would be able to tell a difference running the Knu vs Raptor?

Yeah the Kicker is more flexible and does indeed have more strands. I got the Tsunami for a good price so I couldn't pass up. Both are good stuff. I was just saying that my Tsunami and my Kicker are literally same size otherwise.

If I could get any wire, I'd run Knu Kol but I got the Tsunami for cheaper so yeah. It'll get the job done.

The Knu Kol has more strands. I'm not so sure if I'd run Raptor wire. Since Raptor and Tsunami are under Metra, I'd be looking at Tsunami if you are going with anything like that. The competition wire only. http://www.tsunamionline.com/product_listing.php?id=12

nothing audible. however i'd go with the the kolossus cable, you don't want to be starving your amp/amps from power.
