Need help with my first build! Wire questions!


Recommended Posts

So I'm ordering in my first sub this week, it's a Fi Q 15 fully loaded going in the back of my '03 tibby. I'm going to power it with a sundown sax 1200d, and I just need to know what wires I need to hook everything up. I wanted to get Knu wires, but I just don't know anything about which ones i'll need. Right now I don't have any, so links or advice or anything would be really help. Thanks guys, and must say I love the forum.

Im no expert but Id say with that amount of power youll atleast want 0 gauge for power and ground. For speaker wire 10 to 12 would work. As far as brands I hear that Rockford Fosgate, Kicker and Stinger are good.

EDIT: You may already know this but you aughtta do the Big 3

that amp doesnt have 0 gauge inputs...only 4 gauge.

get Knu wire, absolutely cannot go wrong with that brand. thats all i run as far as wires go in my car, EVERYTHING Knu and i have no regrets.

12 gauge speaker wire should be plenty for that woofer on that amp.

i used to think a band pass was something you were around your neck or something.

So I should just get like 20 feet of 4 gauge? And also how much 12 gauge wire?

I'm going to do the big 3 also.

Alex K- Yes your baby haha, I can't wait to get it in! I also PM'd you today about the details for the paypal and payment and everything.
