Will this Wire be good?

[Gunlex 10+ year member]

Im running a Hifonics BXI 2005D, it'll be putting out 1200w RMS at 2ohm(rated at 1300, but i think it does ~1200) to my 15" Fi Q, which is rated at 1000w rms(but we all know they underrate them =P )

So will this kit be ok from Knu?

it's a lot less than ideal.

generally for an amp capable of ~1200w you want genuine 4 ga since the amp will probably draw 100A or more at peaks.

The KLM kit comes with an 80A fuse so I wonder exactly how much current they expect it to be able to carry w/o significant voltage loss.

On top of that - someday you'll probably decide to run the amp at 1 ohm. The 4 ga KLM will definitely NOT be sufficient for that. You'll have to upgrade to at least 2 ga, preferably 1/0 ga, and at that point copper may be even MORE expensive.
