ROCKFORD INFO SAYS....

"dual amplifier wiring kit
17 feet of 4-gauge power cable
6 feet of 8-gauge power cable
3 feet of 4-gauge ground cable
6 feet of 8-gauge ground cable "

Does this mean you are going to run one cable to the amps...split up the power to each amp??? will 4 guage big big enough for both amps power requirements?

You don't need a cap. Unless you're building a pure SPL competition system (which you're not, no matter what anyone on these boards might think they can do with a sub in the S), caps are unnecessary. The money you save should be spent on a better battery.


Get this kit:

Same price (approx), but gives you the flexibility to upgrade your amps later without having to rewire the entire system.


(but, hey, you haven't listened to me yet...don't ruin the streak and start now )
