iTech Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 Get knu its the best bang for your buck IMO But I can say that the 2/0 rockford stuff that I have is thicker than, and has a higher strand count than the 1/0 knu stuff that I have. I've never worked with kicker power wire smaller than 4ga. You're comparing 2/0 to 1/0? My Official Feedback Thread PSN - tech2332 Games for PS3: Killzone 2, BattleField: Bad Company 2!

enemyofsilence Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 IMO the knu kolossus flex is very flexible. i love it. my friend uses the kicker hyperflex in his car and the knu is more flexible due to more copper strands. i will say that knu is a bit harder to work with because of all the strands. but then again, you have the flexibility to cut some strands and still be good (no pun intended).

Jville140db Posted August 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 kicker is left, as you can see its the biggest and most copper like, knu is on the right, smallest of all, most strands, thinnest jacket, but somehow rockford is more flexible rockford is also silver and not copper collored rockford and kicker are very close, as is stinger xpert (but it has an octagon case, not round) as far as flexibility, rockford>kicker>stinger/knu>monster....atleast in my opinion (holding all 5 in my hand at the same time) monster is very big comparatvely, way stiffer than anything else, and costs more, the stinger I got for like 2 and change a foot, monster was like 5, knu idk cuz 07sonata bought it and left it here, kicker and rockford were both like 4 and change a foot edit: kicker is so damn big that even after you unwind it and cut out that dumb plastic thingy, you still have to cut open 0g terminals to get the wire in, it is so obviously larger than the rest. In your opinion as far as install and power transfer without price being an issue which would you pick.

raytard Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 price not being an issue, monster. Its a bitch to work with but it is the thickest, and would therefore perform best (and install is something you have to deal with once...and sometimes it can be a real pain but in the end its worth it) but in all reality, i'd probably use this stinger stuff again, it was less than the rockford and kicker, but basically the same size and ease of working with. Rockford is silly flexible, to the point of being hard to work with again and bangin altima, the knu is a factory cut, the rockford is a pretty clean cut (as clean as i can manage with the wire cutters I have) and the monster is admittedly butchered, but i'll see if I can get a cleaner one for ya, but alllll the stinger is in my car i think Build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...hl=avalon+build monster/rockford/kicker/stinger cables, pioneer source, jbl highs/amps, kinetik/shuriken batts, iraggi alt, dei security, dc subs(atleast for now) Team DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raytard Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 id chose stinger xpert, not the other lines (some get real shitty) monster/rockford/knu new pics, jsut taken, all 3 are factory cuts, I had to dig around in the wire bin to find spool-end wires. notice the little gap in the center of the monster? thats the plastic wire, aka "magnetic flux tube" Build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...hl=avalon+build monster/rockford/kicker/stinger cables, pioneer source, jbl highs/amps, kinetik/shuriken batts, iraggi alt, dei security, dc subs(atleast for now) Team DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
