Wire Size/Retailers

[dannyz122001 10+ year member]

Im looking to install 4 sets of Kicker RS65.2 6 1/2'' component sets. I was looking to see what size wiring I should use. Also, if anyone has used these sets with kicker zx amps, what would be better--- Using 1-ZX850.4 or 2-ZX350.4's?

Also, does anyone know where I can purchase kicker wiring in bulk?? Not just the amp kits, but spools of it. Thanks

Knukonceptz for wire. Can buy in 100ft rolls.

Can't tell you the size because you didn't say what power you're running, at what impedance.

And why 4 comp sets?

Im looking to install a large system in my truck. I have a good idea about most car audio-related stuff but i dont know everything yet. Im looking to install the following:

2004 Ford f-150 supercrew

2 Kicker SoloX 12's

2 Kicker ZX2500.1's

4 Kicker RS65.2 Comp sets

either Kicker ZX850.4 or 2 Kicker ZX 350.4

as far as the comp sets go, im looking to do atleast 3, and may or may not use the 4th for kicks. Looking to use 1 set in the front doors, and 2 drivers in each of the rear doors of my truck. Then i may or may not use a comp set for the kicks, might just buy seperates.

IMO Money would be much better spent on one high end set of comps and a nice amp to power them.

Trying to image 4 comp sets spread throughout the vehicle correctly is just a nightmare in itself.

as far as impedance, i was looking to do the 850.4 as 215watts x 4 channels at 2ohms. Or the 350.4 at 175watts X 2 channels at 4 ohms
