Wiring kit for 4 channel amp and 1 single voice coil 4 ohm amp?
-
I just bought 4 of these speakers http://m.bestbuy.com/m/e/product/detail.jsp?skuId=1807251&pid=1218293491912 This amp http://m.bestbuy.com/m/e/product/detail.jsp?skuId=8699349&pid=1199494646190 And this sub http://m.bestbuy.com/m/e/product/detail.jsp?skuId=8699704&pid=1199494647326 I'm having my friends dad install it, but I need to know what wiring kit I need. Walmart sells 2 channel and 4 channel amps, but there wiring kits are labelled "2 channel amp wiring kits", I don't know if that makes a difference. In the amps manual, it says to use an 8 gauge wiring kit, but I've read online that if planning to add a sub then a 4 gauge should be purchased. Basically I just need some help, I'd like to buy one from bestbuy.com. Some are $80, some are $20, I'm very confused

Answer:
i recommend 4 gauge wiring. and don't buy some cheap brand that doesn't live up the what the package says. although since the amp is 400 watt rms at full power i don't see a problem running it with good quality 8 gauge wire. but it's always best to get the biggest size wire that the power terminals on the amp accept.

so a 4 channel amp kit comes with extra wire to run to the speakers and an extra set of rca's. That's it. What I would recommend is buy an 8ga 2 channel amp kit ($30-40)and buy a 9-wire speed wire kit ($30) and a single 15ft rca ($10) You may also need two output converters if you don't have an aftermarket radio ($15/each) 8ga wire is good for anything under 1000 rms watts which you clearly are.
Go with da 4 gauge. 8gauge will work2 ,if plan on upgrading go with 4g. U also might want2 bridge da amp 2 make hit harder. Both -- , both ++ wires on outter speaker connections.
