I've bought a few cheap amp kits before, and let me tell you I bought an 8 gauge kit for my highs and it looked like 12 gauge, shit was smaller than my 10 gauge...

Do it right the first time and buy from someone that you know is worth it.

Where might i find a good Kit for cheap..???? Best Buy is expensive, i see thier stuff on ebay for half.. . any mentions of good brands...??

ALSO I HAVE A MEMPHIS BELLE---Memphis Belle 16-MCH1300 AMP this amp is awsome. but i haven't hooked it up yet.. but one thing i notices is that the power terminals seem to only fit like 8 gauge... i was thinking to run 4 gauge and just cut the ends to make it fit... any suggestions?

audiopipe's 4 gauge is the size of 8 gauge, and notice they include 80 amp fuses when 4g should be fused at around 150 amp. Also last time i ordered something with those free tweeters they didn't even send me them //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif sucks cuz i wanted to test them out.

kicker makes good wire

memphis has good stuff too.

stinger wire is good but if you go that route i wouldn't use the gold ring terminals they have (the gold ones) because corrode fast. i have used ring terminals from streetwires, goldquest, knu, and even crap ones from the hardware and they all lasted longer. mind you 2 were in the interior passenger side and were not getting wet.

My Knu 1/0 amp kit and 20ft of 4awg is probably somewhere in Indiana (UPS truck) but from what Ive heard they are good, $130 for the 1/0 amp kit, 20ft 4awg, 2way distro, ring terminals, 4 channel rca cable.

when it comes down to it, wire is not wire..

all depends on strand count, and copper> aluminum
