I have two speakers at 600n watts each 1200 when the pair hooked up?.\ what gaugewire should I use with nthis amp? and should be the same length?

i have found that a hevier gage wire works best. i don't really know about length

Here, check this out. 8 gauge and 4 gauge are correct, depending on the distance the amplifier is from the battery. The closer it will be, the less resistance created, thus you can use smaller wire. Also, like others said, the terminals are 8ga on the amp, but you can also use adapters to go from 4ga wire to 8ga terminals. Stinger makes some nice terminals like this that I am using on my setup.http://www.crutchfield.com/S-81IQYmtv6S3/learn/learningcenter/car/cable_gauge_chart.html

This isn't an easy question to answer without the specifics of what you're trying to hook up. This is a guitar cable. It is mono and will work well in transferring a low power signal to an amp, etc. If you're trying to hook up an amp to a speaker for example, this is not what you want. For an already amplified signal you'll need a 1/4" speaker cable. There is a huge difference. One is shielded and meant to carry a high impedance signal to an amplification source, the other is not shielded and meant to carry a much stronger power signal with low impedance. You should Google the specifics of your gear because using this cable for instance to run from an amp head to a speaker could possibly cause major damage. I hope this helps!

Sorry - have to know how many amps or milli-amps your speaker is + how many milli-amps your power supply has too because they have to be similar. Power supply has to be at least as much as the speakers. Hope this helps a little....

Whoops sorry, meant 1200 Watt amp. If each is 800 watts then you need a 1600 Watt amp. If they're 800 watts total, then you need an 800 watt amp, otherwise you risk doing some damage.

I honestly don't know, I used this kit for a low end system. (120 watts powered sub/amp combo) The way I see it... the higher the wattage, the lower the gauge. 4 gauge would be better.

I would suggest using the same gauge low voltage speaker wire that came with the speakers or better yet a little larger gauge wire ( lower gauge number (#14) is a larger wire & less resistance than (#16) if you are going a very long distance between the speakers. I have not purchased a spool for a while but standard #16 gauge insulated wire will probably do what you need and Amazon or Wal-Mart probably has a 100 ft. spool available online or in the store. Hope this helps!

subs are amplified and size of the RCA patch cable really does not matter.Depending on the length of your speaker cables will determine the size needed. I used 12 guage for myself. save some money and get the wire based on guage... monster cable is not needed, it just has a thicker jacket. Just don't coil up excess wire.

The best amp wattage would be right around 3200 cause they peek at 1600 each speaker. I made the mistake of only getting a 1800 watt kenwood which is a good amp just not enough power. No matter what they will bump though

the amp should have a recommend wire gauge in the owners manual. this was more than enough for my 500 watt rms alpine amp

4 gauge is best for power and ground, for your speakers, regular speaker wire. These wires are the same for most amps I've used.

Hell yeah that's what I did I was gonna go wit the 0 gauge just incase I decide to upgrade but my setup is good sounds like a home theater Bose sys then I use 12 gauge for the speakers now the only way I got it to sound like that is that I got it tune wit a oscilloscope you'll have to look for someone that knows what there doing to use that tool I highly recommend you tune you sub and the 4 channel

I am running:4xInfinity Reference 6032cf 6.5-Inch 180-Watt High-Performance 2-Way Speakers (Two speakers on Channel 1 and Two speakers on Channel 2)1x Pyle PLPW8D 8-Inch 800 Watt Dual 4 Ohm Subwoofer (Bridge Channel 3 and 4)(Running a 10" would be better since amp can run it fine)

Should be fine for basic audio. For High Wattage and high end speakers I wouldn't. I would use a higher gauge. Be careful of some speaker wires. Bought an audio kit for a car and the wire was so brittle, after a few months all the strands broke and no conductivity. It was at a fitting that went in the input to the amp. Caused by the vibration of the car and going over bumps broke it through.

12 gauge is what I'm running to them with 400 watts. Works great. Have 6 of them in an H2 sounds good. No problems.

Hello. At 4 ohms that amp provide 525 watts. That is plenty so I would just use both channels of your amp, on for each speaker. You would not want to bridge your amp with these speakers as you would then be providing 1550 watts at 4 ohms and would almost definitely blow the speakers. Also if you bridged your amp you would only have one channel. So either you would need two amps, or you would try to daisy chain these speakers and I don't believe that amp will work at 2 ohms.

Use a 50 amp fuse. Also 8 Guage or 4 Guage is sufficient for power wire.amp has about 75-80 watts rms per ch. Mine had a certificate showing 321 total rms (continuous) wattage. Perfect for high powered speakers. Can be bridged for subs as well and 2 ohm stable
