I would appreciate your advice and selection of everything I would need (in terms of wires, rca's, etc.) to power my system. I am probably going with everything from Kicker. At sonic electronix they sell all the kicker accessories I would need. Here is the link.

I have a sundown 1500 for two re se's and an rd 55 x 4 amp for my front and back speakers. I will be replacing the stock batt with a good agm and that is only upgrade for now with this setup.
This is what I was thinking
2 or 3 rolls of Kicker ZW1620 (16 gauge speaker wire) not sure whether 2 or 3 rolls or 12 guage. I don't know if 16 or 12 is better, I am still learning, lol. (It will be wiring four inside speakers, front/back and the subs.
1 Kicker ZI46 (4 channel rca cable). Was going to use this for the car speaker amp but are not sure it would work. The best buy installer said he would need 6 rca cables, but I don't know if was aware they made these. I am little confused. And 1 Kicker ZI26 (2 channel rca cable). Or just get three of this kind.
Maybe 1 50 foot roll of 1/0 hyperflex or the 1/0 kit and maybe see if I can buy 10 or so feet for someone to do the big three. I am not sure yet, but know that I could always sell the leftover wire from 50 foot roll for a good price.
As far as fuses, terminals, distrubtion blocks, whatever else an installer needs, I have no idea. Try to imagine this as if you are doing the complete install of the big three, hooking my car amp to front/back speakers and sub amp to subs. I don't have to stay with kicker for the fuses, terminals, etc., but if you could give me the type and amount I would need so I could buy them off ca.com, I would really appreciate it. And if you have some of this stuff, I might just buy it off you. Thanks in advance.
