[QUOTE="loopkiller, post: 5836598, member: 601690"] 1) For sure go with the 6.5 components. No question. 2) 12 awg speaker wire is plenty for the subs, 16 awg for the mids/highs 3) For the power wire to the amps, since you have a Charger and the battery is in the trunk, you can run the power and ground wires directly to the battery. Just check which size wire the amps take and use that size. If your sub amp accepts 4 awg, then buy the 4 awg for power and ground, and you will need a 125A inline fuse. 4 awg wire is usually good up to 125A, that is why I said a 125A fuse. 4) Think about going with a different enclosure type if you are looking for quality sound. Sealed boxes have much better sound quality than a band bass box. And they are usually smaller too. [/QUOTE]
