the manual says to use 4 awg wire.....so a 4 awg amp kit will suffice

Ok Thanks. What about a price range like $30 to $60? Also suggested brand and ones to stay away from?

well with that amp I doubt that you would really need 4 gauge wire.....8 awg should be fine...i would look into stinger.....kicker is good but a little expensive.....just make sure your rca's is shielded and twisted to avoide noise....im sure theres cheaper online but here is pretty much what your looking for....

SPK-5681R - Stinger 8 Gauge Complete Amplifier Wiring Kit 600 Watt

Kicker 09PK8 - 8 Gauge Amp Kits - Sonic Electronix

Monster Cable BAIP-650 (mon-123929-00) - 8 Gauge Amp Kits - Sonic Electronix

I would go with the monster.......your amp fuse rating is 30 amps and the fuse on the amp kit is 45 amps......just replace the fuse with a 30 a fuse......

but you cant go wrong with either kit.....if you have any other questions you can pm and reply here

just run the 4 now in case you upgrade later. 45 bucks and you get yourself a Knu Konceptz 4 gauge kit.

OFC Car Audio Wire

or

CCA Car Audio Wire
