Which 1/0 gauge would be better, and do you think it is real 0 gauge, it says on both there oxygen free? the top one i what i am more looking at but the bottom one comes with 50'' ft over the top 32'' thanks

for the price just over 2$ a foot shipped the ebay monster cable is better the knu klmx is cca wire the monster is ofc and better

knu is good but for the cost even the monster is cheaper than 3.40 for the flex //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

if you do the math with the specs provided with the IMC brand the cross section is 36 sq mm which equates to something between 1 and 2 gauge. I think it's a good price for what you get, but if you NEED 1/0 it won't cut it.

The monster should be what's advertised, but if you enlarge the picture it looks like it's 1 awg, not 0.

I dont see how ccc vs real copper matters in an environment such as this. We arnt building power lines, we are building car audio systems. I doubt with proper length runs and size wire for the systems that one would be able to notice a difference.

I don't see it neither. The benefit of it is so small anyway

Very slight difference, I've tried it. Enough to warrant the cost, depends on the goal I suppose. I tried it with Knu's KLM CCA wire and Kicker Hyperflex OFC wire. Both 0 gauge and same length runs. Difference was 0.1v at the most..

My tests were not in depth, I didn't bother with measure the current or anything like that, just wanted to see if it would cause a different floating voltage.

Is that the stupid monster wire that has the plastic thing in the middle? Lol.

That .1volt isn't gonna bother me one bit. Also I think it is the monster cable with plastic in the middle. Now what's the benefit of that?

well it was between these to and the knu klm 0 gauge, but i heard that isnt good for bigger systems, which all i will have its 2 amps, kicker zx2500.1, and zx150.2 so do you think it would hold up good? i cant afford the Knu Klossus, which is $3.40 a foot

either 1 is fine
