Is this wire worth it?


Recommended Posts

KNUKONCEPTZ 1/0gauge KCA KABLE 1.95 per foot!!! :woot: :woot: :woot:

But will it handle the power load of 2 Audioque 2200D

if the guy is wondering on wiring price like this, then he hasn't spent the money to put the power behind the, like an alt upgrade and battery upgrades, simply upgrading wire doesn't make it all better, its like hooking a fire hose to a sink and wanting to get a full stream out

I am doing that I'm just doing my research first. So, when the time comes to buy every thing I can.

If you did 2 runs? no problemo.

4400/12=366 amps.

So safely even a normal 0 guage copper cable wouldn't be enough.(theoreticly.)

Just buy either the cca from knu or buy 2 runs of welding cable.(pure copper)

Can you explain this a little more?

Are you saying buying cca is better then pure copper?

Had an estimate of 6400 for an alpine/clarion setup dealer said it "should" hit around 160db with the custom boxes he was going to make for me..doubtful with so much area to move but, budget is way below that :( any ideas on cheaper brands for that kind of Spl setup? really didnt want to try any Boss or soundstorm, thinking Quantum figure around $150 per speaker "$1800 total" and $1700 to power it, first actual big setup for the van.

I've been eye-ing that wire ^^^ for quite some time now, 1/0 copper welding cable. What more could you ask for. It used to be $115 shipped for me at one point but now the price has gone up to 130. Thought I'd share.

This is why I ask these questions. I would have never thought of that.

Was that picture supposed to answer why you'd switch to Monster 400 series from KLMX wire? I don't get it :shrug: ..........I've been considering that Monster 400 series too, the price is unbeatable. Decisions, decisions. :trippy:

I've been using monster 400 for the last 2 years and no problems. Mine was a low power application but still. And if you look and take out the flux tube, you're still getting the same amount of copper as Knu. I'm only changing to Rockford wire in my rebuild because it adds more warranty to my amp.
