February 26, 201114 yr Author If there is anything anyone wants to add just sayumm that 4gauge amp wiring kit isn't going to cut it for a saz1500d?Not really what im going to get, but something like it. It replaces what i am really going to get lol. Yea i know i need 1/0 gauge wire for a beast amp like this. Plus i could be using the 4 gauge amp wiring for the Mid range speakers

Plus i could be using the 4 gauge amp wiring for the Mid range speakers Get some wire from weldingsupply.com it's cheaper then "car audio" wire, pure copper, and works great. They also have nice copper ring terminals, although I would get a hydraulic crimper for them, or get some scorche or whatever ones and stick'm in a vice, blowtorch and solder.
February 26, 201114 yr Me too, I'm robbing a bank in a couple weeks.Have fun with thatLast week was a coffee shop, So I'm ready, got my airsoft gun painted all black, nice Whig, the works...
February 26, 201114 yr personally, if you want to run some nice stuff... I'd ditch the RF amp and go with a Cadence ZRS amp and upgrade to a better head unit..I know you probably chose that headunit because of it's compatible features but spending a lot more on a company like Alpine.. you might lose some of these features but what you lose, you'll gain in quality and durability.Most of the low end Alpine's are like any other cheap headunit.. Their $400 and up headunits are very nice for years to come.

February 26, 201114 yr I don't have any fancy front stage, just passive with hertz coaxials but my alpine cde-102 does everything I need it to do.

February 26, 201114 yr an amp on 3.5" coaxials. wow but i think the choice in radio says enough.If your gonna be a dick, at least give some advice, tips, help, money gram, etc.
February 26, 201114 yr Author Out of everything i put on the list what would I have to switch out. I know i need bigger Mid range speakers and bigger wire for sub amp.When i saw the rated power that the Rockford speakers had i knew i didn't know what i was doing. The amp would have blown the speakers almost instantly from too much power haha. Edited February 26, 201114 yr by TehShankums

February 26, 201114 yr Author I might aswell switch out the battery for a better alternator because a stock alternator on a old car wont go so well.

March 2, 201114 yr Ditch The Damn Coaxials And Get Components, And A Nice Sundown Amp For Your Front Stage As Well. You Might As Well Save Up A Little Longer To Have Better Equipment Than Have Shit For Quality That You'll Be Kicking Yourself For Down The Road.Just Saving You The Mistake That Alot Of Us Made When We Started.Eclipse, Higher End Alpine, Pioneer Is A Good Choice Of Headunit.And I've Been Up For 3 Days Straight, So If I Sound A Little Desensitized Or Dickish... Yeah, That's Why.That's Also Why I'm Cutting My Recommendations Short In Favor Of Sleep.
March 2, 201114 yr Personally, I would concentrate on getting a vehicle first ... then worry about tunes ... just my suggestion Bro ...Stereos will not get you and your girlfriend to the football games and on dates ... or back and forth to school and work ... Guess you could always install the stereo stuff onto the local school bus ... be jammin then bro ...
