zup fam -

Would appreciate if someone can suggest the appropriate distribution block to power:

(1) kicker 04kx1200.1 & (1) kicker 04kx650.4

manufacturer's gauge recommended for the kx1200.1 is: 1 gauge power line.

For the kx650.4 is 4 gauge power line. I called curthfield and they did not have any avaibale and so they couldn't provide a part number.

Thanks fam -

I would suggest 0 AWG power run for this install. Get a distribution block that accepts 0 AWG and can split out int 4 or 2 AWG runs from there. In other words run a 0 AWG from the battery to the dist. block and 4 (650.4) and 2 (1200.1) AWG from the block to the amps. Street wires has some dist blocks that have "Power Ring" conectors that will accept anything from 4 to 0 guage at any given terminal.

P.S. if you haven't already you will need an alternator upgrade most likely to feed that kind of power.,

If quiters never win, and winners never quit, who the heck came up with the idea that you should quit while your ahead?

Dats the one. A side benefit that if you think you need it or want it, a cap will bolt directly onto it. I really like this liitle thing, use them all the time.

cool - thanks - forbid - !

forbidden - can you do me a huge favor - ?

it's took me a lil' while to get all the components for my system (due to many factors) anyway, I finally got everything EXCEPT the cables. I'm hiring a local shop to perform the install but I want to supply them with all the necessary hardware. Can you take a ½ of minute to go over the list below and tell me if I'm missing anything or have the wrong thing - ?

For subs: (2 S10L7's)......Stinger Braided 12 gauge speaker wire.

Speakers: (4 kicker k60's) (should I use the stock cable or same 12 gauge as subs as well?)

Far as the amp kits: I'm buying the LL10DB to distribute power, can you recommend which amp kits I should purchase - ?

am'I missing anything forbid - ? maybe a capacitor- ?

thanks forbid - !

can u send me the wiring diagram for the subs to the 1ohm load - ? I believe the 04kx1200.1 is one 1ohm stable. can you actually wire 2DVC's to a one ohm load - ?

thanks forbid - !
