Boon Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 Anyone else have other opinions on this? I'll be getting the wire this coming weekend and don't want to screw myself. Granted I'm only going to be running a 4channel amp off of it (RE 1600.4) and itll be run at 4ohms per channel (appx 100watts per channel, so lets say 10V/4ohms=2.5amps per channel? so 10amps thru the wire aint that much). So not a whole lot of amps goin thru the cable most likely... Still... anyone have suggestions or experiences with Monster Cable, Stinger, Xscorpion or Kicker power wire? WAiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit You're doing electrical engineering? The maths in your post, damn, what? 10vrms = 25wrms @ 4 ohms. 4 channels making 100wrms = 400w output Class A/B amp so ~65% efficient Therefore 615w input required 615/14.4 = 42 amps minimum current. Still, you could run it on 8 guage without any problems. 10.x volts fo' life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't cover music amplification until Junior year. plus I've been doing nothing but studying for calculus and classical mechanics (Newtonian physics) and I'm kinda fried bro. Don't hate p.s. i'm just gonna run it on 4ga anyway Rowan University Electrical Engineering LINK TO MY BUILDDDDD Current Setup in my 00' Hyundai Accent: Pioneer DEH-P6900UB RE.6.5C AUDIO 500w 6.5" COMPONENT CAR SPEAKERS Eclipse SE 6500 (6.5 coax in rear deck) two Kicker C124's in a t-line tuned to 28.6Hz Kenwood KAC-7204 US amps 1600.4 V2 Upcoming Build this summer: T-Line enclosure for two C124's tuned to 28ish hz O_O amp my speakers with a US amps 1600.4.
