I brought a 1/0 fuse holder. Sucked to hell, and didn't keep my power wire in. As far as amp kits, I dunno.

You say the Knukonceptz 4ga. kit is pricey when it's only $51 and it come's with RCA's where as the lightning audio kit doesnt.

lightning audio is actually a good brand and that is a good price, I like knu stuff as well but it costs more and you pay shipping, just buy that 1 it is true guage and no shipping //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

after putting that wire on a megger and milliohm meter I would rather rip some old wire out of my wall and use that. I will never buy their crap again. Maybe a connector if i need it but not wire.

Lighting audio 4 gauge why not? is it cheap then go with it. should be ok to use and if the fuse holder or any parts **** you can replace them later.
