[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8577854, member: 650438"] just get thick enough cables to support your amp's current draw thats it. Cabling is no where near important as the head unit and install techniques. Dont spend too much money on fancy rcas, thats just pure horseh*t. For amp power and ground wire, get copper if you can but CCA is fine as well. There's a pretty big jump in SQ between the two but for your needs the 580 will do the job just fine 2.5 x the price is not worth it in your case. As for the video. Mid high pass is what cuts off bass frequencies to your midrange speaker mid low pass is what cuts off tweeter frequencies of your midrange. high high pass is what cuts off mid and bass frequencies from your tweeter. slope is how big of a cut off. -6 db will still allow a lot of frequencies to go through while slowly cutting it off. -24 db is a steep cut that will almost completely cut off frequencies at the point. You want to use this to have a proper blend between mid and tweeter so the tweeter picks up right after the mid dies out. Basically splitting the job as you wanted in the beginning but making it even smoother. Time alignment is making sure every sound wave from every speaker reaches your ear at the same time which creates a virtual center stage concert that makes music seem like a live performance where you can see where each instrument is and even see (through hearing) if the singer walks to the left or right. EQ is just fine tuning your setup to sound even better. the mvh 580 has all of this as well. [/QUOTE]
