I need help with choosing an amp wiring kit and capacitor.

[chevy_aveo_2005]

Hi everybody, i have a pair of component speakers in the front, and a pair of mid woofers in my back dash as well as a sub. I have two amps and a total of 2500 watts. Total rms is around 700 watts. I have the sub running off one mono block amp, and the speakers running off a 5 ch amp. Which amp wiring kit should i need? which guage, and which brand? Also which capacitor should i get? what should it come with and do the capacitors usually come with all essential wiring stuff???

Use 4AWG to go from your battery to a distribution block then you can split it up and possibly use smaller wire depending on the RMS of each amp. Also purchase some extra 4AWG so that you can do the BIG 3 in your car which will be much better than a capacitor

First he says a total of 2500 rms. The 4 gauge is to small. Then he says 700 rms

I think he says 700 rms that is what 4AWG will be for. I believe the 2500 may be peak.

2500 watts peak, 700 rms. What is a distribution block? what is the big three??

the amps are the Pioneer GM Digital Series GM-D9605 2000 Watt 5-Channel Class fd amp and the Pioneer GM-D8601 1600 Watt Monoblock Car Amplifier Car Audio Mono Car Amp

what ohm is your sub?

or what ohm load are you running the mono amp ?

1ohm

2ohm

4ohm

????

Okay i think i may just run an extra batt to it. or the capacitor, i googled the capacitors and i see nothing wrong with them. 2 farad cap would be fine for my 700 w rms.

im not quite sure, i think its 4 ohm??? its just the plus to the plus and the neg to the neg. one sub for the mono block
