[QUOTE="wavedoe, post: 7682364, member: 640376"] Yes I went mainstream with the brands, but I'm not going thru the hassle of returning anything now unless I have to, I'll just upgrade as time goes by. Everything's here except for the box. I just need help on everything needed to install. (distro blocks, 1/0 gauge fuses, etc.) After research, I think I have to run two 1/0 gauge runs of power & ground wire to a distro block, which will then split off into (4) 4 ga wires. Before being connected to the battery, I'll have 2 inline fuse holders(?) with fuses for each power wire? I will be upgrading the big 3. Probably going with knukonceptz wire. Also need RCA reccomendations, and that's it? Misc. Questions: -Does everyone usually use the stock speaker wire that came with the component set or do they upgrade it? -What gauge of speaker wire should I use for the subwoofers? -Crimp or Solder? -Is an extra battery needed or should I just buy an optima yellowtop for the front? -Any places I can order a box online/here? Thanks for the input. [/QUOTE]
