TeamHT Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 0 gauge is 0 gauge...as long as you know what's positive and negative, lol. Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superjay Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 nope...some stuff out there is NOT 0 gauge...but it's as thick as 0 gauge on the outside. Crosssection of wire needs to be 1.1cm diameter.

Incin Posted December 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 HT that is true. Now when it comes to wiring for the big three what Knu wiring should I get? Wiring for connecting the batteries? Which RCA's of Knu? And im sorry for asking so many questions im new to building systems and I just want to do it right, hence this post. 1/0 for big 3. I'd personally go with Karma SS RCAs. Don't apologize for asking questions You're smart for asking. Which type of the RCAs because theres like 2 channel 1M, 2 channel 1/2M...

Crosssection of wire needs to be 1.1cm diameter. You misunderstand. That's like saying not all 5000 watt amps put out 5000 watts because those are max ratings, not rated power. Of course not all are true grade, but obviously I would be referring to true grade. The point you missed is there is no 0 gauge specifically for power and a 0 gauge specifically for ground. Only difference being colors of the jacket Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incin Posted December 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Would you guys say 2 or 3 XS D5100 batteries? Im also getting one of there starting batteries. (If you guys know wich one I should get that would be great). Quote well, it'll make you shit bricks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamHT Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Well, I have an XS S1200 under the hood and six XS D3100 in the back. I mean...I would decide on amps first. Lol, not to mention if you really will have 10000 watts you might want a high output alternator. Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

Incin Posted December 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 I decided to go with that SounDigital 5000 thats on the special price right now. Quote well, it'll make you shit bricks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamHT Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 I'd say...a high output alternator, S1200 starting with a D3100 in the back would suffice. Two if you want close to 0 drop with the ability to play daily and bang for extended periods of time. Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

Incin Posted December 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 I have already talked to Mechman and he said im able to get a 270 amp alternator. And I was thinking 2 batteries because im doing daily. But since that SounDigital amp is 1 channel would the subs have to be 2 ohm then just wire them parallel to get a 1 ohm load?
