Rydaz1Bass Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 (edited) Ok well it is way better than running paper thin wires to it they,ll melt depending on what you are running if you know what i mean thin wires=Hot melted or your car an actual commercial heating oven i mean you choose i was just saying the thicker the better more power flow.

Marlo Stanfield Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 I'd suggest you do a ton of reading on the forum + read as much as u can from bcae1.com... It's best to get sum basic knowledge under your belt before you start throwing money around. Between the 2 sources there is plenty of information that can get u started on learning all of the basics.

Rydaz1Bass Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 are you telling this guy to run 2 or 4 gauge to his subs? From his amp to his subs when he gets it all in gear.

bcpballer64 Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 He is referring to the wires that are run for your speakers power for you amp...etc. Wire is measured in gauges for example 0 gauge is about .5 inches thick and the higher the number of gauge the smaller the wire is...example 12 gauge is a hell of a lot smaller the 0 gauge. A good website that I have always gone to is www.crutchfield.com there is an option under the car audio section called outfit my car. It will tell you exactly how certain radios will fit in the dash and other stuff like that. In most cases they wil include a perfect trim piece and other useful installation accessories. By no means am I saying buy everything from them but it is a good baseline to judge other options off of.

J Dubb Posted December 4, 2009 Author Report Posted December 4, 2009 Alright, I'll do some reading. Still, ideas of a setup would be cool too. But yea I'm gonna read around Quote
Rydaz1Bass Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 yeah www.cruchfield.com is a pretty good online place to buy stuff off of.
