System Wiring
Monday, May 16, 2005 8:14 PM
Just wondering where everyone was buying the wiring (power/interconnect) and accessories to install their systems? Getting tired of having a pile of stereo equipment sitting in my computer room uninstalled.

I was checking out Knu Konceptz, but by the time I priced up everything I wanted/needed, it was around $300. I also looked on ebay, but couldn't find everything I wanted in one kit, or in one kit plus the missing parts and I really don't wanna buy 2 full kits when I won't use 90% of the second kit.

TIA.

u came up with 300$ thru knu? u must be needing a ton of wiring, i spent around 300$ on wiring and i went with stinger and some skoche. and they are allot more expensive then knu. what all are you needing?


if you have allot of wiring i wouldnt suggest the amp kits, i'd prefer to buy it all seperately

Yeah, 60% is awesome. Only thing I don't like is waiting 6 weeks for everything to ship out.

0ga or 2ga power wire, I was figuring on 25ft (overkill, but better than not having enough).

same size ground wire, 15ft (same story).

60ft 12ga speaker cable.

connectors, distribution block, fuse block, etc.

3 sets of RCAs, etc, etc, etc.

At this point, I've reconsidered my install, and the amount of power and ground cable is too much. RCAs will be shorter as well. Speaker wire will be about the same length.

I have the head unit, xm direct tuner, 2 channel amp, 4 channel amp, 2 sets of components and 2 12s. It's not the highest end system, but I don't wanna use @!#$ty cables to hook it up and have to redo it down the road if/when something fails.
