Audio Posted November 14, 2012 Author Report Posted November 14, 2012 http://www.knukonceptz.com/productDetail.cfm?prodID=KCA-PK0 I'm going to grab this and use it for the amp since I already have the rca's and remote wire. Then get the big three done as soon as I can afford to for now I'm just going to run that 0 guage to the amp and get the big 3 done about 2 weeks after that. 03 Ford f150 2 Sa8 v2s Ap 1800d...

zydrix Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 And it gives me a choice of what amp size to get. Which should I get? a 150 should be ok. i have a 200 on mine. so either 150 or the 200 would be fine. My build 98 s10 2.2 3 american bass HD 15s with psi soft parts.

T.A.G. Audio Posted November 14, 2012 Author Report Posted November 14, 2012 Alright might as well go with the 200 I guess. How much will it cost to have the big 3 done with 0 guage at a shop? I don't feel like messing with that stuff on my own... Lol 03 Ford f150 2 Sa8 v2s Ap 1800d...
