Aaron813 Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 by doing that, it causes a better clean signal to the speakers?I get paid on Thursday, i'll head over to the local shop n get a price. 1st thing im gonna do is ditch the 4 gauge i got, and use my 0 gauge roll and have them put a terminal on, and than ill connect that to the amp. Easier flow of power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twigz Posted July 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 (edited) Just remember, it has a 300 amp current draw & in all reality needs a spare battery, & a run of 1/0 gauge for + and - connections. yah, i got a 200A fuse right now, i'm getting a Kinetic 2400, and the Big 111 will be done. for what it's at now it's fuckin loud. i'll get more videos up with my chain hanging from the mirror and u can see how much air it moves and my mirror falling down. also, i think my roof is flexing quite a bit to. but gonna have to hold off on the videos for now. i used different music to show you that you don't need jeezy, and all them to have good bass =P.

A small gauge speaker wire could but not limited too: Burn from too much power going through it. Raise impedance rise from 1 ohm, to something higher. Which will make your amp operate at a higher ohm, and put out less power. A decent 10 gauge wire such as stinger should be no more then $1.50 a foot from retail shops. and you dont need much of it really. Not to mention a good 10 gauge wire like stinger is about equal to a cheaper 8 gauge wire like db link, and close to the same cost. I was running 8 gauge knukonceptz, but ran out and got a freebie stinger 10 gauge from the shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

audiofanaticz Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 how much wire do you need to goto your subs to your amp? I may have enough knukonceptz here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twigz Posted July 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 (edited) how much wire do you need to goto your subs to your amp?I may have enough knukonceptz here. well, the fuse is all the way to the left, the speaker slots are all the way on the right. the 0 gauge wire is too short to reach the fuse I have a whole roll of 0 gauge Knukonceptz i just need to get a terminal on it. i'm gonna run to the shop friday to get that done. i'm gonna have to hold off on the 10 gauge speaker wire got bills to pay and currently am broke lol plus their gonna probally charge to re wire the entire subs/amp in 10 gauge.

I dont care about your power wire. I want to know about your speaker wire. Thats why I asked how much wire do you need to rewire your box to your amp and get rid of that 16 gauge or whatever it is. What I got thats not being used is: (2) four foot runs of knukonceptz silver 8gauge (2) four foot runs of knukonceptz blue 8gauge (2) three foot runs of db link silver 8gauge (2) three foot runs of db link blue 8 gauge The runs are at least 3 feet and 4 feet by eyeballing them, I cant find a tape measure at the moment to be sure. It should be enough to run new wire from your Amp to your Box, and then rewire the subs to the box on the inside for sure!! Free, you pay shipping. Your in IL so it should only be like 5 or 6 bucks.

audiofanaticz Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 And you cant rewire your own stuff? Man who put the amp in for you? because if its a shop and they are letting you run a amp that is capable of 3000+rms run of 4 gauge wire is a big NO NO. That is how fires start.

That is how fires start. i don't let shops do any installs anymore I learned that the hard way. I hooked up the amp my self, as well as the subs, and ect. the box has 2 aero ports on the side. do you take paypal? like i said i'm broke right now lol. i got 0.15 cents. Quote Fear The Quack!

audiofanaticz Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 yea. I take paypal. I most likely wont do anything with the wire, got no needs for it now. so whenever you get a few bucks on your paypal account hit me up and its yours, unless you feel like driving to milwaukee and Ill meet ya there, farthest Im willing to drive.
