cant edit....
ugh


looked at owners manual for the amp im getting and it says to use at least 4 gauge amp wires and at least 12 gauge speaker wires. im going to be using 8 gauge amp wires and 16 gauge speaker wires.... shit... hope it works fine?

I would run what is specified imo. Wire isn't to expensive

Sorry for extra post was accident but but running smaller wire I don't think you'll get all your power out of the amp

ok thanks. the amp seems to be rated at just about the same maximum as the wire.

also im confused on what to get to mount the speakers in the front. like foam tape for front of speaker and foam tape behind the speaker as a gasket?

and MDF, how to use

should i use this?

I'd really spend the extra dollars on a name brand wires considering they gonna be tucked away your not gonna wanna re buy them and stuff after you have all the wires tucked and hidden it's probably only 20$ then your talking

true thanks yeah. i have to fuking replan my shit now....
just realized that the hifonics amp is rated in watts, without the RMS....

my speakers at rated at 110 RMS. and the hifonics is rated at 4 ohms: 125 watts x 4 chan. But the hifonics is NOT in RMS. which i thought it was.... so its really only around half of that, which is 62.5 RMS....

need to get an amp at least 100 RMS to 125 RMS....

and new amp kit rated at 4 gauge, OFC wires
and Speaker wire at 14 gauge.... lawl

hifonics brutus or hercules series should be better than the zeus series

This NVX amp might be the best option for speakers DOUBLE CHECK all their rated RMS to make sure it is CEA compliant and true RMS!

ok thanks. im just sort of posting my notes here, as an update to what im planning and such. im trying to cover everything i can and be meticulous and make sure its perfect, or as close to perfect as it can get

ill let u know if i have any more questions!

as of now my main question revolves around speaker wire.

if my speaker can handle 110 RMS. and the amp is set to send 110 RMS to each speaker. But the factory speaker wire is like 20 or 22 gauge wire. will the factory wire gauge make noticeable sound difference? will the speaker wire bottleneck my system?
