has it all
Kit has everything you need for a hassle free installation, I was thinking I wasn't going to need it, but was glad I had it after things got going.

Great Value!!!
If your looking for an amp install kit with all of the necessities that doesn't cost and arm and a leg this is it. The kit came with everything needed to get power to my amp the length was perfect for a extended cab pickup. The RCA's lack a little but I just used these single channel RCA's to run my sub amp and I bought some Streetwire 4 ch RCA's for the 4 ch amp and it's turned out great. I've always had good luck with Install Bay products!!! I would recommend to any one in search of a good Amp Install Kit!!!

2nd time with this install bay kit
its a great kit for the price. I bought it once for a buddys Suby and then for my father in laws econoline van. never had a problem with either. sonic can be slow at shipping. but if on a budget this kit kicks butt for the price....not much online can compare for a 4 gauge and price. never a problem with feed back or crappy rca. might have to get a few better connectors but hey its a given. anyways great kit. also great for a basic systems. I wouldn't run more then 100 amps of power max.

New amp kit
Not much to review, It works fine. The only issue is that the power cable doesn't fit into the fuse holder. The fuse glass and holder plastic actually cracked when trying to close it. I'm sure I'll have to replace them soon. Other then that, it's good enough to power my amp with no issues. Yes, I would recommend it to others, just be careful when connecting the fuse holder and power wire. Don't use force!

Decent Install Kit
This kit isn't too bad it does the job. The fuse holder seems a little bit cheap on the plastic material but it works. The power cable held up to my abuse when I ran it through my tight space trims in my vehicle and I had to really pull them hard to get through. The RCA cable is a bit thin but I used it for my subs anyways so no problems there.

Decent for the money
I originally bought and 8 gauge cuz that's what my amp called for, it was a joke so I returned it and got this 4. Easy return/ exchange. Sounds like it happens a lot...
I think these kits are measured on the outside including plastic diameter not the inside wire.
Anyways buy the next size down from what you need. Kit came with lots of little parts to make the install ez. Would buy again for a 200-400 watt amp

Good price. Nice sized wire, but not enough connectors for what it's supposed to do. Also not a very big fuse.

half decent for the price
The wire is not really 4 gauge its more like inbetween 6 and 4 gauge, but its good for hooking up an amp for up to about 1500 rms. Good little kit that comes with everything needed but a little heads up, it could have been a fluke with mine but the agu fuse that came with the fuse holder fell apart. literally the glass, fuse element, and end caps all seperated. Anyways its a good kit and would probably buy it again.

Does job for the money
This amp kit is decent, it does the job for the money paid. Only complaints would be that the speaker wire is very cheap and does not hold up very good. It rips easily. I have it powering an 800 watt mono block amp...For the money it does the job.

Loudest and Toughest for the Money
So I bought this sub back in October of 2012 for my first budget sound system. It is in a slot ported r/t 300 box and powered by an infinity 1300a amp. I have to say that just one of these by it self gets really loud, especially in a smaller car ( I have a Corolla). Loud enough to rattle the car, and mirrors, and if you're sitting in the backseat, you can definitely get a massive headache, haha. With that said, they will not hit the absolute lowest notes in rap songs, nor do they produce the cleanest bass. But for the $49.99 I got it for, my Comp has been an excellent value. I will be putting alot of sound deadening in my car in the next few weeks, which should help improve the sound quality even more. Honestly, even though Kicker rates this at 150 watts rms, it can take 200 safely. Thats what I've been powering it at for the last near 6 months. From the inside of the car, this is really all the bass you need. If you're one of those people who wants to be heard down the block...well you might wanna spend some more $$$ on a Kicker CVR or an Alpine Type R. But for me for right now, this speaker dominates on the bang for buck meter (literally). And I have to admit, the design of the woofer itself looks pretty awesome compared to the generic looking subs offered by brands like Kenwood or Pioneer. When I pop the trunk, alot of people look at it and say "dang!" followed by nervous laughter. No joke. All in all, this is about the best budget woofer that you could buy and I would recommend it to anyone!

Basic Kit, served its purpose
Nothing to complain, or rave about, basic kit that served its purpose. although the wire did not properly fit into the fuse holder(i upgraded to a kicker anl/afs 4/0 gauge).
62 found this helpful
You get what you pay for
I wouldn't try to pass more than 600 watss rms through this. The price is very cheap but the actual wire is 8ga. If you need the real power I would suggest saving extra and getting a real 4ga kit... it'll be worth it in the end.

Ok kit for the money.
I have had ok luck with the kit. The connectors for the big power wire and ground kind of suck to crimp and I've had a little bit of the copper strands come apart at the connections but I'm not sure if thats my fault or not. Im not an expert installer but i did take electrical in college so I'm not doing too much wrong.

Not bad
Overall it's a sick kit. The power/ground are 4awg, the rca's work great, fuse / fuse holder is great, the speaker wire was not sufficient for my application. Amp required min. 12 gauge and the speaker wire in this is a small 16 gauge.

Very flexable and easy to run.

Pros/Cons: All and all great wire and kit but this is not true 4 gauge but is very close. i have not had any problems with my system and my local audio shop only carrys this. this is great for the money. i have the 4 and 8 gauge kits. I recommend these but stay away from 2 and 0. Brands that are true are Kicker, Monster, and Street Wire. Stay away from Absolute. Tsunami i bought a 4 gauge ground wire and thats how i found out that its not true 4 gauge so i recommend these.

Acceptable
This kit has just about everything you need, I would only make a couple minor changes.
The power/ground wire isn't true 4gauge, its closer to 6.
The kit comes with one black fork terminal, I needed to pick up another one for the positive hookup to my amp.
Other than that, there was a good amount of length for all the wiring and came with wireties that I didn't use due to how i hid the wires in the doorjam. Also came with grommets that I didn't use (I just pushed through a factory one).

the ak4 wiring kit
This is a great kit for systems under 2000 watts but any more you have a fire hazard and need to upgrade. The only con about this kit is that the fuse block is week and when I got my kit the fuse was busted so I bad to replace that fuse with a new one and I was missing a joining bolt so if you get this kit your best bet is to go get a different fuse block scosch has a fuse block that is far more durable.

Decent for the price
I was actually disappointed these kickers. I have them wired into a 600w amp and it just doesn't hit hard enough. If I turn them up to high distortion comes into play. Although, I listen to deathcore and there is no real need for loud bass hits; I was still hoping for some mirror shaking. IN CONCLUSION: for the price I paid these subs do just fine for a starter set.

Its good for the price i have to buy a second power wire
I have purchase this kit 2 times once for my subwoofer and amp setup and the second time for my speaker and amp setup. Only problems I have are that this kit is not sufficient enough for SUV owners there needs to be around 20 ft or more of amp wire.
Pro
- Amp wire and speaker wire very flexible
- Reliable kit
- Has 25ft of speaker wire even though i need like 60ft
- Zero issues with my system cutting in and out due to wire quality
Cons
- I ran out of speaker and amp wire cause I have a Cherokee XJ
- The Hitron amp wire i bought seemed to be a tad bit thicker in leading me to think this may be a little less than true 4gauge.

Great beginner's amp kit!
The wire size was adequate for my first amplifier install, and it works great. I do have a problem with the RCA cable that is included though, as it gives a high pitch sort of a buzz at all times; the one included with my BOSS amp kit (surprisingly) doesn't buzz at all. The speaker wire is OK, but pretty thin.
Overall I recommend this kit, but maybe get a new RCA if yours buzzes like mine.

Cheap. Misleading product.
I bought this because it was cheap so I was not expecting a lot. Just for a little 50x4 MB Quart amp. This is not a 4 gauge kit at all. Honestly it is a 7 gauge kit. The insulation is very thick making the small wire look much larger until you look at it in a cross view. It is awkward because if you use the terminals that come with the kit they are for a 4 gauge kit and really do not work with the small wire. And it is just slightly to large for 8 gauge terminals.

Great install kit for a first timer !!!
I used this kit to do my first install ever on my 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee. It did great, I installed a Autotek 1000 street amp with 2 12" memphis subs. Kit had everything I needed to do the install and at a great price !!! The only thing I can recommend is to go to your local audio shop and get about a foot long piece of smaller power wire to downsize your ground wire or you will be fighting with it for a long while. (4 gauge is a little big to fit the little screw attachment on the amp)

Very Good Kit
This kit is a very good choice fo rsomeone that does not know too much about running wire though their vehicle. The cable itself is very soft and flexible which makes it easy to hide under carpets or behind kit panels. The only thing this kit lacks are the fork terminals you would use on certain amps. However this is not too big a deal where as most amplifier manufactures seem to be going to the allen scew down terminals so you wouldn't need the forks anyway.

I bought this because I didnt want to spend the money at the chain electronic stores that were selling these kits. The speaker wire felt sort of stiff but I didn't use it anyways.

Like mentioned before there is not enough connectors.

Oh boy where to start, the RCAs are super cheap non twisted and I don't recommend them they have a tendency to induce noise into the system. The 4 gauge wire is more like a 5 gauge.

This is good for someone who is just starting out with a system, otherwise I recommend a kit of higher quality such as Kicker, Rockford Fosgate, or even Monster wire.

Not a professional in the car audio area but from what i do know these are great at least first time buyer wires. This kit comes with everything you need and the speaker wire is a bonus plus since its 25ft!. I used all 17ft of the power wire through out my ford ranger, very flexible too. Ground wire is a little to short but some say 3ft is about all you need to be safe. Good set of RCA cables too. Overall if your on a budget like i was then id go with this other than that if your looking for cheap stuff dont look for real real quality like this kit has without spending a little bit more than someones range of cheap 20$ wiring.

Don't believe these i----s. This is a great buy.
I bought this thing because it was cheap, so I was not expecting much, but this thing really did impress me. Everything I needed was included, and, most importantly, everything worked like it should've when I was done. I only had one problem with the install- the ring terminal they included was too small to fit on the 14 mm bolt I planned to use as a ground, so I had to drill it out, which took like 2 minutes.
Now, about the wiring (and this is the reason I'm writing this review): There are a number of reviews on here claiming that this isn't true 4 gauge. One dude even claimed it was 8 gauge. Whoever wrote those reviews has no idea what they're talking about. I seriously doubt that the guy who said it was 8 gauge has ever seen either 4 or 8 gauge wire in his entire life.
To make sure, I measured a piece with a pair of calipers and then compared it to the wiki page on AWG. Believe me, it's true 4 gauge. And in case you're wondering why I care so much, it's not because I'm affiliated with them in any way, it's because I liked their wiring so much, I actually ordered a 125 foot roll of it, and it upsets me when someone badmouths something I like for no reason.

Decent Sub for a Killer Price!
I have 2 of these wired down to 2 ohms each at 225 RMS on a Kicker 450.2 amp and they do hit pretty hard for being so low in power, but both of them flex my doors, mirrors, etc!

great for the price
put two in a sealed box powered by the kicker zx 300.1. I was amazed at how loud they got because they are in a soft top jeep and my friends say they can hear me driving a block down the road. they are good for anyone that wants to add some boom to their system without spending a lot of $$

Awesome subs
I had two of these in a ported box with a kicker kx450.2. I have owned/intalled car audio systems for about 5 years or so and these were amazing for entry level subs. They hit close to my 15" l7 did. When hooked up right in the right size box, they are monsters. Definitely recommend to anyone looking to add a moderate amount of bass.

12" kicker comp
two of em are adequate for my full size caprice in a box's built to SQ specs. most everybody i have listen to it can't beleive it's only 300 watts... eh. the only thing i dont like is the wire terminals are spring loaded not the best design.

great sub for the price and power
Hard to beat this sub for the price when you get the 2 for 1 deal. If you want good bass without breaking the bank or worrying about low gauge cables, caps, or upgrading your power system this may be a great sub for you.

Wow...
These subwoofers bump hard. I didnt think they would because of the 300w max power but they do. I have them hooked up to a 600w kenwood monoblock in my 2005 Ford Escape and they sound amazing. I would definitely recommend this for people looking for cheap subs that sound great without having too much power.

Good sounding subs, definitely worth how much I payed for them. I have 2 of these in a ported box and they hit nicely. The highs and mids are nice but i have heard better lows out of other 12s. If you are looking for a budget system that hits hard then go with these

It's alright
I've had it for about a month and it is breaking in and sounding better and better , it replaced a lanzar that was 20 years old and that I paid $300. For back then . Even though it's not as outstanding as the lanzar , I'm getting used to it and it sounds good! Also it isn't as power hungry as the Lanzar , I have half a ADS Pq 20 bridged powering it and that's all it needs(200-400w) yes the amp is over 20 years old too , seen many rides and still bumps!!

A real kick in the butt.
Incorporated the sub woofer into my car from the trunk through the rear seat. Removed the extra padding in the center of the back seat to really feel the thump. Wife hates it, great selling point. She will not ride with me!

bang for the buck, and thats it
well i had these in my Jetta Wolfsburg. they were 50 bucks each so i thought it would be a good deal, but I highly regretted it. They do not bump or pound. It is a noticeable bass increase that you really cant hear from outside the car unless its quiet. They are not very loud and sure wont rattle the car fi thats what your hoping for. all in all it is good for adding clean bass to your system, but they are not hard hitting subs by any mean

Nice subs
These subs produce clean sweet bass. I have a Rockford Fosgate Prime 250 hooked up to two of them and it adds the perfect amount of bump in my Grand Marquis. Together the subs are 300 watts RMS and my amp puts out 272 RMS according to the birth sheet. So I'm not really pushing the subs too hard. You won't win any contests with this set up but if you want some extra bass these are a great choice. If you have the room, get this set of subs in the Kicker box! Sonic has them and I wish I went that route but that was my fault. ;-(

Nice
It's a good starter sub. My bro had 2 of them in his car with custom boxes and they hit very hard. He only had about 110 RMS going to each and they slammed good and hard. The highs and mids were excellent, but the lows weren't as good as they could have been. Maybe that was due to the sealed box they were in. But overall, they were good subs. Simplicity can be some of the best stuff. Get 2 of these and you won't be disappointed.

Awesome
Best sub for the price. I'm running 160 RMS into it in a 2.25 ft^3 ported box tuned to 33 hz. It rattles my station wagon pretty good. Definitely would recommend this if its all that's in your budget. However I've had it for about 6 months and looking to upgrade. Seems like there's a tendency to always want more. I listen to a lot of bass heavy music and it just pounds... But more is always better. Cant speak for durability much but I've been pushing it a LOT and its goin strong. This is definitely excellent for the price.

amazing bass, low power
I have one of these in the trunk of my 92 accord in a ported box i made and its paired with a 150w rms kenwood amp. When i turn it up, my mirrors are just about totally useless, just a blur. People can hear me over a 1/4 mile away (me and friends have tested this). I bought a small spl meter that maxes at 125db, and well, it gets maxed when my bass hits. I would like to find something else to see exactly just how loud this is. People always guess i have at least 2 subs with some big power, but nope. Just this one kicker 12 and a small amp. If you are looking for some serious thump on a very low budget, this is for you. You wont be dissapointed.
Cons -
Neighbors dislike me
bolts coming loose on car
broke rearview mirror

Great Subs!!!
If you have a cheap deck, amp and wiring then these subs aren't going to sound very good as with any system. With the proper quality equipment these subs sound amazing for a low RMS unit. I have a Clarion comp deck, planet audio 1500.1 amp (at less than 1/4 power) and 8 gauge wiring kit with these subs in a sealed box and people with JL W3s and kicker L7s are asking me how i get them to hit as hard as i do. It's all about your setup. Don't put these subs on cheap crap! These are excellent subs and at a good price!

I have two of these wired up. To get good bass sound you have to turn amp settings down. Yes they'll slap, or pound or whatever these people are saying, but it will be distorted if they do. If your just looking to add a bass concept to a bass-less system, go ahead its worth it. If your looking to bump, go elsewhere.

These subs are by far the best for the price but only offer a high frequency range of responce, if paired with other subs that reach lower to contrast then these are perfect.

I would recommend....
I got this amp not really knowing exactly how it would perform but as soon as i got it home and hooked it up i was amazed. Even though its not an incredibly powerful amp it works great for cars. You can actually tell a difference when adjusting the frequency and bass boost. I would recommend this to anyone who doesn't want so much bass from a sub to wear you cant breath but to people who like a nice and crisp sound from an amp but still will be able to crank it up if they want too.

Reliable Power and Good Looks!
I bought this amp in October of 2012 to power my first sound system, a 12 inch Kicker Comp (4 ohm) in a ported box. Although this basic sub is only rated at 150 watts rms I figured I could safely push 200 watts to it since Kicker is known to underate their products. And for almost 6 months, it has worked flawlessly, the amplifier barely even gets warm. The blue LED light strips glow really bright when its powered up and they make the trunk look cool at night. The only thing that I find strange that no one else has pointed out is this: I'm pretty sure this amp puts out way more than the 200-300 watts rms thats listed. The fuse rating on it for example, is 60 amps! This was something that my friend who works at car audio shop pointed out to me. Most 200 watt amps have 25 or 30 amp fuses...a 60 amp rating is usually only necessary and used on bigger 500 or 600 watt amps. It certainly seems true, because I only have the gain turned up not even half way and it maxes out my 12 in. Comp and thats at 4 ohms. I'm thinking of upgrading to a Kicker CVR in a bit, and at least I won't have to upgrade my amp, because I know this thing will push it no problem. Bottom line: This is a tough, powerful, reliable, and really cool looking amp for a pretty damn good price. Just be aware that it is a bit more powerful than the ratings suggest, so if you're using a weak sub, make sure you turn the gain down so you don't blow it. :)

Great value
The wire is decent, the fuse holder is average (you'll definitely want to zip tie the lid onto it), the RCA cable is average, and the installed terminals are average. I did have one issue with a set screw terminal shearing the 4 AWG wire. I simply tinned the end of the wire with a soldering iron and the problem was resolved. The price is below average, but the components are average or better, so it is still a great value. I would purchase this item again.

Decent quality for the price
Does exactly what it was intended to do. If you have a low buck system it will do fine, but I don't think I would recommend it for anyone running a true 15-1600 watts. At 1500 watts the wires do get very warm after extended play time.

Extremely Cheap 4ish Gauge Kit
The amp install kit came with all the materials stated on the website. The reason the kit is so inexpensive is that it isn't really 4 gauge. The wire its self is closer to 6-8 gauge and the jacket is actually 4 gauge. Being that the power wire is quite a bit smaller than true 4 gauge the fuse block barely works as the set screw isn't long enough to adequately pinch the wire without it falling through the hole. All together, if you are strapped for cash it's a good setup, but if you have the funds and quality is your concern, find a better product.

Not Bad For The Money
Bought this kit specifically to have some extra wires for my dual amp install and to run a big three upgrade in my Lancer. Worked perfect for that. Very flexible and easy to work with. Not a real 4awg wire, but it wasn't advertised as so and I already bought the install bay's dual amp kit so I wanted my wires to all sort of match. Perfect kit to upgrade my grounds a bit since I'm not running a high power system. Only con is the strand count seems a little low and the terminals provided with the kit seem cheaply made. Other than that, if you need a simple amp hookup, I would recommend this kit for the price!

Quality kit
I was happy with this kit, overall it worked fine. A few minor issues I noticed were. The true gauge of wire is 6, there is no speaker wire included so make sure you have enough to run from the amp to whatever your going to power and finally the gauge of the wire is just barely to small for the fuse holder the set screws run out of thread before the wire is held right. But all in all for the price it's good quality wire and the small issues can be resolved if your knowledgeable enough to find a couple things at your local parts house.

Not 4 ga.
I bought this kit expecting the power wire to be a little smaller than actual 4 gauge. Which is ok because I didnt really need it. But I never imagined it would be as small as this. The actual wire is smaller than 8 gauge with a huge, thick insulation. If you're looking for a budget 4 gauge kit, go with the Belva kit. Its only an extra $5 but the wire is much thicker. I realize the Belva probably isn't standard gauge size either. But at least it is acceptable size for a budget kit. And certainly worth the $25. But this Install Bay kit is absolutely horrible

I bought this kit because I was on a budget and didn't want to spend too much money. This kit is alright for the price you pay but I had trouble trying to connect the fuse, the screws it comes with the fuse wouldn't hold the power wire for some reason, so I ended up using a kicker fuse that my friend let me have, other than the fuse, every else was fine and this kit got the job done.

You get what U Pay 4
You get what you pay for, I knew I wasn't going to get a pro kit for @ $20 bucks but the description of the kit stated "4 Gauge " Power and Ground cables. I figured I would at least get a "6 Gauge " but according to the gauge chart it is an "8 Gauge ". And I know it isn't a 100% copper core it's is aluminum w/ copper coating but the kit will do is that I'm only running 500 watts on my amplifier, but if it would have been over that, the power cable will heat up and could cause damage. having said that kit is descent for small systems 500 watts or less but for higher systems I would recommend known brands with true gauge and solid copper core.

This Amp is B/A
This amp is exactly what I was hpoing for! I have had it for 6 months, and I have not had one problem....except now I dont want to leave my car. I have the matching reference series sub from Infinity for this amp, and it is untouchable for a mono amp. I have the 12" sub inside a sealed box and it just pumps! I listen to metal and the response time on a triple drum is amazing. I recommend if you are going for sound, and not just bump.
