This product had a lot of high quality wiring and connectors for the money. One thing that I had to source elsewhere was four component speaker wire, but I still think the kit itself is a good value.

The "4" gauge wires in this kit are a little thin for 4 gauge and the speaker wire is way too small for a high powered system. I'd say get this kit, but upgrade the speaker wires to something like an 8 gauge wire for best quality. While you're at it I'd pick up some better RCA's too

Wires are wires plain and simple. I have this map kit hooked up to a 500/1 JL amp and it powers it fine. Defintly better to get then a JL kit which cost triple to amount of money. One problem with it is the RCA sux and then speaker wire is only 16 gauge, whne you shoudl have 12-8 gauge for subs. But all the power parts to it are perfect

The kit is pretty good for the price. I just didn't like the 16-gauge speaker wire. The 12-gauge is highly recommended for best sound quality. The power wire was felixable, so that was a good sign that it would last a long time without having some of the internal strands tear with sharp corners. Overall for the price it's a good quality amp wiring kit.

Customer Testimonial

I have bought all my stuff from them. Their prices and selection are second to none. Would definitely recommend Sonic for all your electronic needs. I've built a very good mid level system (it's all I need) in my truck and did it without spending a fortune. Thanks again the crew of Sonic Electronix!
