Your remote wire is switched by the head unit. The accessory wire is switched with the ignition usually, but I have seen accessory wires that were not switched in random vehicles. Some accessory wires are constant. You need a DMM to probe and see how yours works in your particular vehicle.

It does not really matter what wire was intended for as long as it is able to handle the current you are trying to pass. Welding wire is as vague as audio wire. There are good and bad in each type. There are stiff, low strand count versions. There are flexible, high strand count versions. You...

I quickly killed two flooded batteries in my car after adding the audio system. The first one was the original battery that had 5 years on it, so I just figured it was time. I replaced it with an OE equivalent and that one too died within 2 months. That is when they sold me the HC1400 and I have...

Unless you have upgraded your factory alt, upgrading the alt POS+ wire is pretty useless IMO

The battery in the first example was a "MAINTENANCE FREE FLOODED BATTERY". That is exactly the type of battery that I am advocating that people NOT USE inside a vehicle, and almost identical to the one in the OP. Even though you think it is safe because it is "SEALED" does not make it safe...

For that small of a system, a single decent battery under the hood will be more than enough. You more than likely can run that system off the stock alt without any issues. I would recommend either the Kinetik HC1400 or the XS D5100. I have the HC1400 in my Civic and push about 800W with no back...

RF website I just went to their site and they show 8, 4, and 1/0 power wire there

Is that kind of what Pedro was busted for?

What voice coils are on your subs ad how are they wired to the amp? Oh and BTW, RF does not make 10 awg power wire.

No. I caught the *** checking out my junk when I was taking a piss. He says he was looking at my "watch". Problem being, the only jewelry I wear is a cawk ring.

So if you agree with me, then why are you arguing? So since I use google, I must not know anything? Have you ever read anything on the interwebz that you did believe? I bet I can find that info via google as well. for ***** sake, it is not like I used the Enquirer as a source or something. Hell...

If you don't know, then how in the hell do you think we can help?
