simple1 Posted April 24, 2010 Report Posted April 24, 2010 So untrue, but thanks for your comment! CCA wire does not carry the same amperage load as a normal copper tinned or pure copper wire, but the difference in the current is minimal. like 20-40amps less (40 being on the way way way high sides of things). If your running a decent rear battery, chances are the money your saving buying CCA wire is not even noticeable audibly or on a meter. it may be a little overkill but ofc is definitely superior to cca and welding cable is the best bang for the buck.
victor8881 Posted April 29, 2010 Author Report Posted April 29, 2010 What if I'm running dual 4g runs from my hood to my trunk? Will I see any improvement if I go with a 1/0 run over the two 4g runs I have now? HU: Kenwood KDC-MP745U.

Kasey Posted April 29, 2010 Report Posted April 29, 2010 The welding cable Im currently running I get locally from AirGas, which is a welding supply type store that we have an account with and pay 2.45 a foot for it. I payed $1.40 a foot at my local AirGas and i don't have a account with them.. (yes that was for 1/0) "Audio is not a hobby it's a lifestyle" _____________________________Refs_1_Refs_2_____________________________
R_Mac_1 Posted April 29, 2010 Report Posted April 29, 2010 Not alot, but the Stinger is probably that price cause you are getting it from a shop and they are marking it up like crazy. My local shop here wanted $9 a foot for Stinger 1/0. Right... I got 1/0 welding cable from weldingsupply.com. Pretty sure it's a little thinner than normal 1/0, but I'm not running big power so it's plenty thick. 2002 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi Pioneer DEH-P6000UB Alpine SPX-17REF 6.5" components (active) Sundown SAX-50.4 Sundown z15 (3 cubes @ 35 hz) Sundown SAX-1200D 2006 Buick Rainier CXL AWD V8 Stock Bose system 12" Alpine Type E in aeroported box Profile AP1000M
