Cadence wire

[Kangaroux 5,000+ posts]

Picked up a 17' run of Cadence 1/0 from AudioSavings.com and I'll admit I was a bit skeptical about the size of it since I got it for so cheap. However this wire is some great stuff. True 1/0, I would say the difference between this and Knu is extremely minimal. This stuff is as flexible as my friend's Kicker HyperFlex 1/0 that he bought for practically double the price. Strand count is good and the jacket is very easy to work with. My only worry is that the jacket may be too easy to cut through which could potentially lead to it splitting open if I'm not careful about how I run the wire.

All in all this is some great stuff and you shouldn't be hesitant to try it out. I got a 17' run of blue 1/0 from AudioSavings.com for $28 shipped. Knu's KCA wire is $34 bucks and that's before shipping.

For anyone interested here is a link to a great deal.

I bought two runs yesterday. I heard nothing but good about it and for the price it's hard to beat

Didn't have any other 1/0 laying around but here it is matched up against some Knu 4g Kollossus Flex

And some pics to show its large enough to properly fit into a fuse holder..

Cheapest I have found yet. Going to buy at least 2 runs of it since I gotta run power with one and do grounds and big 3 upgrade with the other.

I used cadence for my big 3 and was completely happy with it. I'd trust it as much as the kicker hyperflex for my power wire. For the price you can't beat it.

my teammate just ran 12+ and 12- of this stuff

are their different lines (grades) of the cadence wire?

I got a run of 4 gauge in red from a member here and it is def smaller than another run of unknown 4 gauge that I already have.

However I have only heard positive things about their wire.

Hit up ebay for some cheap terminals, and check out these distro blocks, they are beast:

As for the 4g wire, this cadence wire is CCA. OFC 4g is cheap enough from Knu, I would just get that if you are pulling anything around 1500w. I don't know the limitations of CCA 4g cause I've never used it though

One amp is only using about 300W RMS and the sub amp Im about to get will be pulling 1500W RMS.

That block is "(2) 1/0 GAUGE IN, (6) 8 GAUGE OUT".. looking for one along the lines of (1) 1/0 gauge in, (2) 4 gauge out"

Tsunamis stuff is good, thats what block I have now.

It's actually 4g outputs on the side, but you can fit 8g in there.
