Stinger is nice, but pricey. I use Crankin Cable and have had no problems with it. They all seem to be the same to me with some suttle diferrences.

Scoche is very nice. Look at the EFX line. Monster and PG are also good.

I use Monster Cable, but purely for cosmetics...what it all boils down to is they are all just big blocks of metal, brass typically...some are gold plated (very cheaply typically) and I dont really think you could tell the difference in between any 2 distro blocks that were designed as car audio distro blocks...
buy what you can afford and/or what appeals to you...as far as sound, you arent going to hear a difference...

I use Lightning Audio SQ2 series now, but I have also used Monster and RF and I've noticed practically no difference between the two. The new Stinger digital readout D-Blocks are pretty cool, but very pricey.
Also, they just send up a red flag to any potential thieves that you probably have some pretty nice stuff in your ride. Unless you are doing a serious custom install that you want to show, I would save some cash and get a plain-jane D-block and spend the cash on an alarm. It looks like you have a pretty nice setup, and with that much cash in your car I would have a good alarm. Good luck buddy!

I've used PG, Stinger, and RF. They all sounded the same, just different cosmetics.
Blazermedic is right, extra bells and whistles may look cool, but they catch a thief's eye. Ever wonder why people with huge JL, RF, or Kicker stickers on their rear windows seem to get broke into alot?! Functionality over fashion, or as we say in the motorcycle world "Chrome wont get you home". ------------- Squirrel
