[QUOTE="caseyboy43, post: 8169786, member: 657902"] Fair enough on the speaker wire - what is more appropriate? 12 gauge? But is there a downside to having the HO alternator, HD battery and engine wires (alternator positive to battery positive, battery negative to chassis, and engine ground to chassis)? Sort of like building a computer - you get a power supply that has enough headroom to build on and add more power hungry components - hard drive allows storage beyond current needs. - how would this be any different? Problem is my budget and my bank account are not at the same table. So I want to be able to piece things together and I was going to start with the electrical. I have some modest amps and subs but my plans are much bigger. [/QUOTE]
