AlpineKid Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 http://www.streetwires.com/products/default.aspx?grp=20 Use the two icons for interactive Wire Guide This will help out, larger wire is always better but in your case it will not make a noticable difference running 1100rms watts /////ALPINE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esteagall Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 deffinatly use 0 or bigger. remember the bigger the wire the less resistance you have just make sure your ground is 0 as well and its a good clean ground -Car: 2006 Ford expedition King Ranch -Subs: 2 FI BTLs 18 fully loaded -amps: 2 sundown SAZ 3000D -Alternator: DC Power 260 amps -Batterys: 2 optima yellowtops -A whole shit load of 0 guage knu hyper flex and raptor cable -Rockford Fosegate 3sixty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebXC Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 I'd say run the 0 gauge and run 0 to the amps as well then you could upgrade and not worry about it and for the time being your amps will be well feed. 1994 Dodge Ram 2500 Cummins Diesel Regular Cab ... ... ...
