zup fam -

my system is finaly all here I just need a lil' help, there are a couple of things I need to bring to the shop & need a lil' guidance.

I have one kicker 04kx1200.1 to power two S10L7 SoloBarics in an enclosed box & one kicker 04kx650.4 to poweer 4 kicker k60's (that's 6.5's x4)

I need suggestions on ampt kit for it - ? Kicker's specs call for a 1 gauge cable, can I do a two or four gauge instead - ?

Can some one confirm that the following producsts are suitable up to the job?:

amp kit for kx1200.1: https://www.knukonceptz.com/productDetail.cfm?prodID=KOLAK4

amp kit for kx650.4: https://www.knukonceptz.com/productDetail.cfm?prodID=KOLAK44

fuse/distribution block: https://www.knukonceptz.com/productDetail.cfm?prodID=FB-1024D

Is there anything I'm missing for this system install - ?

thanks fam -

Your system will pull a max of 1880 watts, so you need at least 2 guage (1 would be better) power cable from the battery. None of the knukoncepts kits you list is 2 AWG. The distru block would work just fine.

So - sayin' that I should have a one gauge cable from the battery going into the distribution block and two 2gauge out? (one for each amp)
