November 20, 2010 The gauge(s) of wire are misleading

I'm probably going to have to sell this kit on ebay, however I'll have to make sure when I do that I do NOT advertise this as a 0 gauge kit. That's because the wire they are trying to pass off as 0 gauge is probably more like 2 gauge, and the 4 gauge wire in the kit is more like 8 gauge. At first glance, the wire looks nice but when you strip it, you will see that it's almost all insulation and very little wire itself.

The accessories that it comes with (distribution/fuse blocks) are nice, but that defeats the purpose when I will not be able to use the wire because this was not what I had in mind when I ordered this kit. I don't blame sonic, but the company (install bay) needs to stop misrepresenting their wire sizes.

I purchased these recently. They are not true to 0Awg though. They are more like 4awg. But the power and ground cables are easy to cut and strip. The rca's aren't as thick. I'd reccomend buying better ones as I did. They still did the job powering my Phoenix gold 1000.1 with a 2 farad capacitor.

The 0/2 gauge wire in this kit is pretty nice, it is not as thick as many other brands but it is the best bang for the buck and can handle the power with ease. I can always use some extra speaker wire and this kit has plenty of it. The only thing i did not like was the lack on ring terminals. Terminals are about $2 for 2 terminals at my local autozone but that can get expensive in some cases, for example....if you are connecting a extra battery. Overall, great product. AAA+++++

October 6, 2011 Not 0 gauge

I bought this off eBay knowing it was not 0 gauge but to run my system I really only need 4 gauge and after the eBay cost it was cheaper than buying a 4 gauge kit. The RCA's were not used since I had my own.

I would not pay the price on here for this kit. Simply not worth it since you do not get what you need to wire up a system that needs 0 gauge.

I have had no issues with it but like I said I only needed 4 gauge and didn't use the RCA's.

This is a good 0 gauge budget kit. When it comes to RCA's you get what you pay for, so these are not very good. The fact is they do the job. And when you get them from Sonic, you know they'll arrive on time.

This is not true 0 guage. More like true 4 gauge. But for the price what do you expect... Do your research before blaming other for lack of knowledge. Look on youtube for better reviews before buying.
