Posted May 15, 201015 yr So I'm pretty sure I'm getting knukonceptz wiring for my set-up.my set-up:2 fi q12's fully loaded (subs) Fi:2 sets of alpine spr-13s components (speakers- 4 total) Alpine Electronics of America, Inc. 1 audioque 2200d (amp for sub) Audioque: Amps: AQ2200D1 Alpine PDX-4. 100 (amp for speakers) Alpine Electronics of America, Inc. So, for the Audioque amp i'm thinking about getting the Kolossus Flex 0 Gauge Dual Amp Power Kit ( 0 GAUGE DUAL AMP POWER KIT )And for the Alpine amp I'm thinking about getting the Complete 4 Gauge 4 Channel Amplifier Installation Kit ( 4 Gauge Amplifier Installation Kit )Does this Installation Kit include enough speaker wire for 4 speakers?And does the 0 gauge kit come with speaker wire? If not, what gauge speaker wire should i get for the subs?
May 15, 201015 yr You should of just kept this in your old thread, no since in making two topics on the same thing.
May 15, 201015 yr If you have an aftermarket headunit in your car then yes you will need a pair of rca's for each amp so you can send signal to your amps.10-12 gauge for subs14 gauge for interior speakers
May 15, 201015 yr Author I'm getting the Alpine CDA-105 Head Unit so i guess i'm going to need some RCA Cables. How many do i need? 1 for each amp?Thank you
May 15, 201015 yr Author Also Should i get 4 channel RCA cable or 2 channel RCA cable?What's the difference?
May 15, 201015 yr Also Should i get 4 channel RCA cable or 2 channel RCA cable?What's the difference?well you are going to need a set of 4 channel RCAs for you highs (speakers) and then a set of 2 channel RCAs for your Audioque
May 15, 201015 yr ya the amp kit you listed the 4awg one comes with 2 sets of RCA's and speaker wiring, keep in mind this speaker wiring is 12gauge WHICH can be used with your sub! so it looks like the only thing you will have to buy is a some 16 gauge wire for your speakers (highs and mids) also you said you are going to use component speakers so make sure you buy sound deadener for your doorsi am a little confused though you said "2 sets of alpine spr-13s components (speakers- 4 total)"so when i read the first part (2 sets of alpine...) i am thinking you will use 8 speakers total since they are sold in pairs but then you go on and say 4 speakers total which to me means you will only be using 1 sets of components? if you are using 1 set of components that is cool and the amp kit you have listed will be enough for for you as it comes with extra rca's and 12gauge wiring for your subs! the only other thing i can recommend for you to do is do the big 3 and get another battery in your car!!! that 2200 i will need some good electrical to back it up!! did we answer all your questions? if not please restate them NOW!
May 15, 201015 yr Personally after using knukonceptz, I think that you should buy an extra few feet of 12 gauge. the RCAs are included with both kits but if you want the best cables with no interference, Id buy the Krystal RCA cables. Just measure your setup and buy the cables by foot so you can specify how big of a fuse you want as well. Doing this is cheaper and you can get alot more cable for a better price. If you ever need to upgrade to 0 gauge definatly go through KK. It has bout 5145 strands!

Thank you. And yes i'm doing the big 3 and getting another battery. so the alpine speakers i'm getting come with 2 mids and 2 highs. I'm getting 2 of those. so it'll be 4 mids and 4 highs. my amp will work with that, right? Also do i need ground or distribution blocks? And will i need extra RCA's? if so how many, and 2 channel or 4 channel? And 1 last thing how much 16 gauge wire do you think I'm going to need if the 1 speaker and 1 tweeter is going in each door ( there's 4 doors), and my amo is going to be under the seat.And what website do you recommend to buy the sound deadener from? and how much will i need? thank you this will help a lot:)

May 17, 201015 yr I have a question when it comes to wiring component sets. Does the order go like this:Wire tweeter and midbass to crossover xx then wire crossver to amp. then run rca's from amp to receiver to get sound.Is that correct?I ask this because when i took off the door panels today i looked at the crossover and the car's stock speaker wire was wired to the crossover while the rest of the component set was wired by 18 gauge speaker wire.
May 17, 201015 yr So the stock tweeter was wired to a crossover but the midrange wasn't? That's normal for stock. You got your wiring correct.

May 18, 201015 yr Author Would I only need 1 of these for a 4 channel amplifier?Knukonceptz product detail for KRYSTAL KABLE 4 CHANNEL 6M TWISTED PAIR RCA CABLE
