hello all you people out there. I just recently ordered an 18Q duel 2 and a AQ1200D amp. I am going to be putting it in a 05

grand prix gtp and was hoping for some feed back as to what kind of wire, how much of it and where to get it. and if i am going

to be needing another battery. if so what kind and where a good place to get it would be. I am making a box at the moment, its

34", 30", 18" and set at 32 Htz. any feed back to help an ex kicker cvr user out is much appreciated.

How big is your alternator?

For power wire, 4 gauge would be ok, 2 gauge better.

If you have more upgrades in your future i'd suggest upgrading to 1/0 but i don't think the AQ 1200 handles 1/0 wire. You can easily see how much wire you'll need by using a long piece of rope, contour it in the general direct from front to back and you'll get a fairly close idea how much wire you'll want.

As for your electrical, I'd do the "Big 3" whether your lights dim or not. It just helps your car. Do it in 1/0. Now if your lights are still dimming, add a decent battery to the front of your car. For example, A XS power battery, a kinetik, or deka intimidator. Now if your still having trouble then add another battery to your trunk and make sure the voltage on the back battery rests the same as your front battery or else it will die unless you get a solenoid. Now, if you are still having trouble which i will highly doubt on 1200watts then you need to call DC Power and pick up a High Output Alternator.
