so whats the verdict does the skin effect apply to dc or not.

i always thought fine stranded wire had more surface area = high amp ratings

thanks for all the answers so far btw

i have this stuff called nalox i use for terminating Aluminum cables

will that help my copper contentions if i used solid wire from nys salty roads lol

No, Skin Effect does not exist in DC current.

Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist?

I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . .

What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself

but what has drawn your attention

in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums

An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space

Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears,

thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.

bad ass, now i have to 2/0 everything. only thing now is how to connect it. i guess i can buy bolt on lugs or something like that

the more pressure you can generate on the connection points the better.

Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through.

Check where you did your big3. Might have chosen a poor engine to battery ground point.

Also are you running stock alt? If so that is likely the issue.
