roscoe1129 Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 I too also think the use of bolts is (not a bad idea) but not a good one to use in HIGH power applications. Everybody chime in bla bla bla, but like Jon said each place you teminate is going to add resistance.

roscoe1129 Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 I had 2 runs of 8 going thru the back of the bubs enclosure per sub so I think youll be fine especially if its ported (but some sealant over that area will help also.

Neo_frog Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 As far as the impedance read from solid wire vs. wire/bolt setup I saw no difference on my meter. I tested both because I was having the same concerns, but if anything the rise is negligible. I guess with very high power applications it would matter, but for a daily driver it's nothing to worry about. Quote Need an install? Hit me up.[email protected]Got car audio questions?
