This kit has everything you need and was perfect for our 1000 watt amp! My only caution is that you either need the correct crimping tools or use a torch with solder for end connectors. We did the solder route and this turned out much better and professional looking than the "professional" installs we looked at that would have cost $200 or more! This kit is also an incredible value compared to other 4 AWG kits. Only ones that were comparable in price were some with 8 and 10 AWG wire sizes and they didn't even have all the correct connections included. With the 4 AWG we no longer have sound delays when the bass notes come fast over and over as we did with smaller AWG. We attribute this to more power being able to be transmitted over the large AWG power wire. One other note: If you have a small amp (300 amp or less) the connections may not be wide enough for 4 AWG wire systems.
After reading the other reviews of this kit, I purchased two of them. The 4 Gage wire, 100 Amp fuse and crimp connectors is why I needed them to do wiring, not on a power amplifier but for two 105 Amp alternators that I used on a project to upgrade my two cars' electrical systems to be able to handle an additional power amp. The large wires were easy to work with as others have said. The small wire strands make it very flexible, not stiff like larger strands would have been. The crimp lugs worked well too with the smaller wire strands. The alternator installations worked great and this would be a perfect wiring kit for a power amp that I will be doing next. I will likely purchase another of these for that project.
The quality of this product is amazing considering its price. There are kits way more expensive that do the exact same thing so why pay more? This kit even includes protective casing for the power cable that my $30 kit didnt have. The only con is that you have to connect the in-line fuse holder yourself but that could be a pro because it alows you to choose the fuse location and how accessible it is. All in all if your system peakes at 500 watts theres no reason not to get this kit. Awesome, flexible power cable and great, braided audio cable plus good terminal connectors. Great kit!
this is an awesome deal. 28.00 for a true 4 gauge wire kit. (note i said true 4 gauge) the power and ground wires are of the same quality and material of the kicker brand flex wires. 4 gauge kits at this price usually has 8 gauge wire and thick plastic/rubber jackets that equal 4 gauge. I use this to power my hifonics brz1700.1d with my 2 12" kicker l7 subs. I didn't use the fuse/fuse holder that came with this kit because 100a fuse is small for 4 gauge wiring. Instead i used a anl fuse/fuse holder kit with a anl 250a fuse. I am a walmart associate and i highly recommend this to my customers.
Product arrived 3 days early! Hats off to Ship-To-Store! Product is as advertised. True 4 gauge wire!
Installed a Sony sub, amp and iphone retro fit system into my daughter's VW cabrio. The Sony kit did not include the power cables or speaker wires so this set was a good fit for what we needed. Easy to hide the wires as they are flexible and robust. Easy to install connectors.
Has enough length for my previa minivan to reach to the middle row could reach back seat putting a sub under the seat pretty good quality not cheap feeling great value for $10
GREAT KIT !!!!This is the second time I've bought this wiring kit. My 1st was in 2015, no problems works great. Crimping the connections are a little bit challenging, but so is installing your own amp. I'm about to buy my 3rd. Haven't really tried any other brands, but I've read the horror stories on other kits.
I purchased this kit thinking it was ofc ( oxygen free copper) which is what it was showing on the website label and the mftr's website. However what I received was CCA (copper clad aluminum) which is what I was trying to avoid since it is lower quality and pure copper. I did not realize this until after I had already open the package and finished my installation when I happened to look at the cables. I guess it is ok however this is not what I wanted and Walmart should be more conscious of what specifically they are selling with better descriptions.
Had this kit professionally installed. A day later, the wire melts and starts a fire under my seat. Do not trust these cables or your car may burn down!!!
