Mikesmith0890 Posted March 3, 2009 Report Posted March 3, 2009 Im trying to decide on wire for a new run in my car. And I found a really good deal on some RF perfect interface 2awg and wanted to know what all of you thought. I can get 20 feet for $40.. peeled freshly of the roll.. Hell of a deal.. is the 2awg going to be enough to handle near 2000-2500 watts or should i spend the money on maybe some knu 1/0. And how would you compare RF 2awg to another brands 1/0, since RF is known for Hi quality ish... Thanks guys AlphaDamp Sound Deadening CDL Mat - The best Vibration Damper Ever!

finkster Posted March 3, 2009 Report Posted March 3, 2009 though RF makes some nice shit no doubt, I would still go with some 1/0 from somewhere else, or hell even RF 1/0 gage if u can find some for a good price. Thats alotta power you're running so i why restrict it or would u be willing to buy two runs of it? thaty would be more worth it in my opinion DAT 4125------>RE XXX comps active Eclipse cd7000 I serve drunks for a living
Mikesmith0890 Posted March 3, 2009 Author Report Posted March 3, 2009 yeah.. its selling online for $2.10 a foot.. with a minimum 20' purchase.. so for $42.. 20 ft is a helluva deal.. even 2 runs at $84 would still be a good price.. would it be more effiecient w/ 2 runs of 2awg or 1 run of 1/0??

creyc Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 Two runs of 2awg would give you 132 kcmil (cross sectional area, the number that matters) and a single run of 1/0 would give you 105 kcmil. So two runs of 2awg would handle more current. 2001 Chevy Blazer (2) SAZ-3000Ds (2) custom 18" Madmax subs in a second row wall Rockford 600-4 Pioneer PRS components Pioneer P800PRS deck

Mikesmith0890 Posted March 4, 2009 Author Report Posted March 4, 2009 Dont necessarily need that much wire for the amount of power.. The setup is going to be either 2 lvl 3 12s or 15s.. aprrox running at about 600-800rms a piece.. so between 1200 and 1600 power.. and currently a 250wrms 4 ch but itll be upgraded to either a 400w or 800w.. prolly along the lines of 500 so at most 2k watts of power AlphaDamp Sound Deadening CDL Mat - The best Vibration Damper Ever!
