> 24 hourEverything you need comes in the kit. The Remote wire is in between the rcas. This wire Was very flexible which made running it easier. I soldered all of my crimp Connections to make Sure they were solid and one thing i would say is always wrap your wire with a wet paper towel Or something to wick away the heat to avoid melting the insulation. also remember yo put the rubber shields on before you crimp it. its a pain in the @$$ to fit it over the terminal.

> 24 hourI read the reviews and I had absolutely no problem with any of it... I DID have to purchase a small butane torch and some solder to connect the large terminals, but that is all... DO NOT CRIMP these large connectors to the large cables... If you cannot solder, then take it to someone who can SOLDER it for you... Solder, done correctly, will last for the life of your vehicle...

> 24 hourGood price, good value, shipped quickly. I was able to install the wiring on my truck and get my amp/sub-woofer up and running with no problems. This kit was one of the few that I found that came with speaker wire as well, also a plus.

> 24 hourIf youre getting this kit, then youre buying it for the quality power and ground cables for the price. The connectors are kinda cheap and the rca cables are cheap, but they both work. Ive used it for over a year now and i trust it enough that i bought their 8 gauge kit for my speakers. You literally get exactly whats in the picture.

How many watts can this amp kit handle? At KnuKonceptz, we do not use "watts" to rate our amp kits. This is a very inaccurate method to determine what the proper gauge wire required for your amp installation. Many amp manufactures do not represent the output of their product accurately in watts. Please refer to your amplifier"s fuse rating, this is a number a manufacture can not fake, well they could but it would put their product in harms way! Add up the fuses on the end of your amp (two 30A fuses = 60A total draw) If this number is under 80A, this kit will fit your application. If over 80A, a larger gauge wire would be required or use our Kolossus Flex 4 gauge amp installation kit.
Beware of "1600 Watt" amp kits that include a 50 or 60A fuse. Its physically impossible for these kits to support this load (refer to our comparison photo)
KCA 4 Gauge - Oversized for higher loads vs other CCA cables
Our Kolossus Copper Aluminum (KCA) series cable was designed specifically to be larger than the competition. Copper Clad Aluminum is less conductive than Oxygen Free Copper when comparing like sized conductors. CCA however is also much less expensive. So by increasing the area in our KCA cable, KnuKonceptz was able to achieve similar performance to OFC, but without the higher cost.
For this exact reason is why our cable is larger, to achieve similar performance, for less money. The graph below shows, based on area, our cable is at least 40% larger than comparable brands.
Bassik Twisted Pair 2 Channel RCA Cable
Our Bassik RCA is just that, a straight forward design.
Bassik RCA Features include:
- Oxygen Free Copper construction
- Twisted Pair Geometry for noise rejection
- Ultra Flex, soft touch PVC allows this cable to fit in tight places
- Easy channel identification
- Gold Plated RCA Connectors.
About KnuKonceptz KCA Power Wire and how it compares to other cables
- Using American Wire Gauge standards, the gauge of stranded wire is determined by the total area of the conductor.
- To calculate this you would take the area of each strand and add it together. This area, in square mm, then determines gauge.
- Diameter is not as critical with stranded wire, this is due to the tiny air gaps between each strand. Diameter may fluctuate with strand size and how tightly wound the rope of the cable is.
- The smaller the number, the larger the wire, until you reach zero or aught (0). From zero, you then have double aught (00), three aught (000) and so on.
- Based on AWG, the true gauge of this cable is #3, larger than traditional 4 gauge
- We"ve compared several popular 4 gauge amp kits from other manufactures. The above chart displays the manufacture and the calculated gauge based on area.
- All cables tested were labeled as 4 gauge. The X axis indicates gauge by area and where each cable"s measurement placed itself on the American Wire Gauge scale.
- Several brands barely reached the required area of 8 gauge.
Every KnuKonceptz amp installation kit clearly states these critical specs:
- Wire type - CCA or OFC
- American Wire Gauge
- Max Load (amps)
