AaronT Posted November 6, 2019 Report Posted November 6, 2019 Looks like he's feeding a speaker terminal distribution block with it. Nothing wrong at all with that. The areas you do not want solid core wire is in areas that move. Being that is a fixed point it will be fine and transfer current great.
jnasty Posted November 6, 2019 Author Report Posted November 6, 2019 Lol it's not like I've wired everything with Romex, I'd understand if not totally agree if that were the case. The small piece going to the terminal block was stranded but due to the tight bends it looked sloppy so I changed it out to 12/2 solid & holds the bends nicely.. everything else is stranded.

jnasty Posted January 20, 2020 Author Report Posted January 20, 2020 Awee snap, so after a bit of huffing & puffing I'm gonna continue. My Arc 4000se is shot, nobody will take it in as a repair as arc doesn't publish their schematics. I spoke with arc and was told it's reached end of support and nothing can be done. I was leaning towards the Acoustic elegance subs as they were suited for more SQ. But Now that I had to buy more Arc SE amps to make up for losing the sub amp money's tight, so it's gonna be the FI ib3v2 18's (will be here tomorrow). My sub amp is now the 2300se which outputs 1300w @2ohm, each door will have a 2075se which outputs 150 per midbass, tweets now will be ran with a 4100se with 2 spare channels.. maybe 8" midbass center console at some point Vehicle: 2002 Ford Escape Electrical: 275A Singer, 160ah XS/Yinlong lithium, 2,000farad XS Supercaps Head Unit: Apple iPad Hi-Res Passthrough Topping d10s Speakers: {ACTIVE} - (4) Arc Audio RS 6.0, (2) Arc Audio RS 4.0 & (2) Arc Audio RS 1.0 Sub Stage: (2) TC Sounds LMS Ultra 5400 18" Amplifiers: ARC Audio - (4)4200SE(comp modded, (2)4000SE Processing: Helix DSP Pro W/ Dash Mounted Director

bcbrassard Posted January 20, 2020 Report Posted January 20, 2020 A happy ending is near if he can get the amp fixed. Great thread, your work is great man and you got a solid idea from Pssound. That guy is fucking crazy about his SQ builds. I feel your pain on this build and glad it might work out in your favor. Tuned in to the finish, keep it going man!
