Setup list complete, advice?

8 gauge is small wire, for a 200 watt amplifier. Your going to be running over 1600 watts. Zero gauge wire is much thicker and capable of passing far more current. This is required to run those amps. It is not optional.
Either buy much smaller amps, or you must get zero gauge wire for that much power.
is this ok? a good 20ft worth

Actually, I just looked up the specs on those two amps. I see the Alpine draws a max of 80 amps, and the Profile draws a max of 40 amps. 120 amps total. So you could use 4 gauge wire instead of zero gauge. That will be alot cheaper for you.

You will still need more 4 gauge wire to wire the Big3

A small power distro

And a small amount of 8 gauge for the Profile amp

It's not just the wire. You need a complete wire kit. Wire, fuse holder, fuse, terminals,2 pairs of RCA cables, split loom, etc. You will also need the power distro to split the power to the Profile amp, extra 4 gauge wire to wire the Big3 under the hood, and a small amount of 8 gauge wire for the Profile.

You can use a vice to make the crimp connections or buy an impact crimper.

how much more 4 gauge wire, and 8 gauge will i need?

and is that small power ditrso really necessary?

 
Ok gotcha, so type R 4-ohms, thank you for that bro. Do you think that amp will overpower the 1 type r?
Just looked at that amp too. It said "sorry product is no longer available." //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
