I don't see shok selling it by the foot

hmm, they dont. Youd have to find some used or someone who bought a role that didnt use the whole thing //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Well I don't really want to spilt the 0 ga before the trunk with a distro

Are both your amps in the trunk?

Anybody in here has extra shok wire they wanna sell

 

[flava30 10+ year member]

Yeah I have a distro in there now to split the power to both amps but I still need at least 20ft of 0 ga

Copper Clad Aluminum

This is there CCA wire. Decent wire....better price. Would give you a 1/0 fuse holder and terminals also.

Or this...

0 GAUGE AMP POWER KIT

This is pure OFC cable. Comes with the 1/0 fuse holder and terminals.

Oh yea...both come with fuses too. This site you can buy by the foot also if you already have the other stuff.

you dont "need" 0 guage 4 should be just enough barely...

but 0 or even another 4 would be alot better...

Or you can get this... dual amp kit. Wire isnt as good, but depends price vs quality you are looking for. Just throwing out examples..

I wouldnt run both amps off one run of 4, thats pushing it. but yes if you wanted individual runs of 4 for both amps would work too

more than adequate and super flexible stuff... every bit as good as Knu or shok but it is not 0 guage or 1/0 it is 1 guage based on actual diameter but it is pure OFC...

have used tons of IB brand and have never had a single issue with it ever... in fact PSI uses the 8 guage for leads on their recones...

I bought the Install Bay kit awhile back.

Decently flexible. Didnt have much trouble running it around the engine bay or under the moldings.

And getting the terminals on wasnt an issue either.

I have a RF T1000 and T600.4 and it worked fine for my amplifiers. Just ran the 1/0 kit to the trunk. Then 4 gauge to the amps from the distrobution block.

If you're looking for shok by the foot email vitveet@hotmail.com. I just got 30 foot from him.

 

[SicAudio 5,000+ posts]

and the kits come with everything including 4 guage and a distro block...

I sell a ton of IB wire and kits lol

just have to realize what the true guage is. and if you base it on actual AWG it is true guage based on dimension ( brand name car audio wire is notorious for being over size )

I'm going to email vitveet@hotmail.com and see if he can help me out. That wire on sonic looks cheap. In fact one review said that it looks like 4 ga. I will get the shok if vitveet@hotmail.com response. If not I will get the knu wire. Thanks for all your help everyone. I will keep you posted.

That installbay wire isn't too shabby for the price. Not quite true but **** close I think
