Hey guys, i'm looking for 1/0 gauge wire for a big 3 upgrade. I was researching some wire and it seems that 1/0 is pretty damn expensive. I stumbled across this brand knukonceptz which was the cheapest, and i had to post something to get feedback, because i noticed in their description that their wires are made up of 90% aluminum and 10% copper. Now for an amplfier i wouldn't care, but i'm pretty sure for a big three upgrade i'm looking for least resistance, and that wire is basically all aluminum. I'm not trying to bash the company, but would you guys recommend this wire for a big three upgrade, or should i go off looking for something that has pure copper threading in it. Thanks for any answers!

P.S: If anyone can strike me a deal on some 1/0 gauge wire for cheap, that would be great! i know its pretty expensive, but i'm looking for something around 20ft for around $40 :X or 40ft for around $80.

Welding cable is much cheaper. That's what I'm going to use when I upgrade to double 0.

It's nice. Just got a big box of it last week. Ships fast and the price is right.

I honestly think you wouldn't really notice the difference, but welding supply dropped their prices a bit. I've owned both, haven't bought from welding supply in while, but their shipping is fast from my experience.

knu konceptz kolossus flex 1/0 cable is 5145 Tinned Strands of Pure Oxygen Free Copper.

stinger 1/0 cable is 4284 Tinned strands of pure oxygen free copper

I would want more cable for the money that i'm spending

i like the knukonceptz flex cable.

Kicker Hyperflex is also good.

I would stay away from Monster Cable. I bought 250 ft of 1/0 to find out there is some plastic tube shit in the middle(apparently a noise reducer but very doubtful). I bought the monster flex cable and it dosent move at all. Just a rip off in general.

If you dont need flexibility welding cable is the best way to go about things.

I use a Stinger power kit in 0 ga, and I realize it's not pure cooper at all.

Is it really better to use pure cooper? (For a future instal, because I don't want to re-do my instal!)

Is there a significant difference for a 1000-2000 watts rms setup?

No you are fine. Stop thread jacking BEYTCH!

If it wasnt fine they wouldnt be making it for car audio application, but there is better out there though.

I bought some 0guage hyperflex wire from weldingsupply.com and I must more flexible than my previous 4gauge install and just as flexible as the kicker hyperflex 4guage wire. I only paid $94 for thirty ft. of wire. I am very satisfied and I plan on upgrading to 1/0 cable soon as I figure out what to do with the rest of this cable I have left.

Are you installing and uninstalling the wire twice a week to need extreme flexibility ?

isnt 0 guage the same as 1/0? then 00 is 2/0 and 000 is 3/0

i got the Kolossus wire ...damn its thick and it wont fit in every "hole" :drink40:
