The amp kit will be fine and get the 4 conductor for the speaker wire.

I can't tell you how much you need until you discribe exactly what your plans are.

As for the 4 conductor... you hook one pair to the woofer and the other to the tweeter... pretty simple.

basicaly what i am doing is mounting the amp in the trunk then the speakers in the door i have the infinity kappa perfects 6.1 and am hooking up the alpine mrv f345 up to them. I figure i will bridge the amp to run the speakers. now with the 4 conductor wire i was wondering if it is like just runing two sets of wires to two dffrent speakers or the 4 work as one.
