Highest quality brand of car audio speaker & power wire?

I'm checking out this KnuKoncept website...this stuff is incredibly cheaper than Monster Cable. You guys are sure the quality is up to par,

Never dealt with their wire....but I wasn't overly impressed with the quality of the distribution/fuse blocks I got from them. Some of the screw holes weren't lined up with each other. One fuse block arrived broken and it was obvious that it was from the manufacturing process and not shipping/etc (a screw was overtightened).....but the CS was excellent, got a replacement from them very quickly. On the one Kompression distro block I have I seem to recall the nut that tightens down to hold the wire being too large for the height of the block itself and scrapes the bottom mounting plate making tightening of the nut rather challenging. Just an overall lack of good quality control IMO.

and each song will still sound like a symphany, but at the fraction of the cost?

Wire is not going to either make your system sound like a symphony or keep it from sounding like a symphony.

Sounddomain.com is where i get my speaker wire. they have free shipping on Stinger speaker wire. i got around 40ft of 12g for under $20. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

power/rcas/other shit , i go to knu. ive personally never had a problem with them. shipping is reasonably fast. only thing i can ***** about is those friggin kompression fittings on the distro blocks. talk about a PITA. they do look nice though.

Here is just a random question about installation/wires: Can you ground your whole system through a distribution block the same way you can with power wire? Or do you need to find seperate grounds for each amp?

i think that is the preferred way. also prevents ground loops, iirc.

Ok, cool. I've never hooked up multiple amps in a system before, so I have a lot of questions.

I use Stinger's high end stuff (HPM series) for power, ground, distribution, battery terminals, etc. I use JL's blue wires for RCAs, and for speaker wire I think I have some of both. Honestly the JL RCAs are better than many I have used before, but they could still be improved upon. I want something thick and beefy and well-shielded (they are) that doesn't have the screw-type heads (they come loose easily) and I want something tough enough where I could pull it off of the amp (or whatever) by pulling the cable itself and not having to get my fat fingers squeezed just right around the slippery bare metal end piece. But really, they are good wires. I just dig the ones I have in my home that have plastic around the ends and the whole thing is integrated into the wire so you can pull on the cable itself with confidence.

Knu Konceptz wire is great quality OFC for a good price. Power, ground, or speaker wire. My go to for wire. Fast shipping as well. Good quality RCA's too.

Dammit I wrote a whole response before seeing it was a zombie thread

I love knukonceptz. Always used their tinned ofc before sky high jocked the idea. Sky high has more of a thread count but think about it, their wire ratings are over rated/sized. So it isn’t true to the rating. Knukonceptz is.

Y’all led me into some ‘07. 2 more years earlier and things would have been better.

I found what y’all were referring to. I had to think about it, but this has to be what y’all were talking about.

Scratch that. This is “The Goat”. The other one was the definition of abomination.
