Best Wiring Kit on the Market

The following review is for 09PK4, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This wiring kit is hooked up to my kicker 1000.1dx amp and a kicker solo baric l7 12" and it pumps. Plenty of power and i love the product. Kicker is the way to go with any system!

Kicker 09PK4 4 gauge amp wiring kit

The following review is for 09PK4, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Top quality wire, very flexible, long enough with a little left over for other apps. I liked the high quality battery cable ends too. I also liked the small, easy to place/mount fuse housing. Although the cover will have to be zip tied on.

The wire is 100% copper and silver plated.

Kicker PK4

The following review is for 09PK4, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This wiring kit is outstanding. The wires are so fine, you can literally tie this wire in a knot, the power it delivers is nothing short of amazing. I have it hooked up to a Kicker 750.1 with 2 Kicker 2011 CVX 2 ohm 12 inch subs. I've not been disappointed by a single thing I've bought from Kicker, and this is just another trophy. Amazing kit, I'd recommend this to anyone.

Absolutely Kicker

The following review is for 09PK4, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This wire is typical Kicker, amazingly flexible, the strands are so fine. I will only be purchasing Kicker wiring for all my systems.

Good product, provides a bit less resistance than standard copper wire. True to gauge and sturdy in build.

Great kit

The following review is for 09PK4, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

You can't beat it for the price. This is true 4 gauge wire not some small crap thin wire with thick insulation you get from some other companies.

PROS: true 4 gauge size, everything's done for you except running the wires and cutting wire for fuse, more wire then you should need, if you have a pick up truck enough power wire for 2 runs depending on truck

CONS: the hole size on the ring terminals is a bit small (ok for normal size bolts, to small for side mount battery terminals) nothing a drill bit can't fix

OVERALL: great kit, some would say it should come with rcas but I like choosing the right length for my specific install. I don't like having 20' rcas if I only need 8'. I also recommend kicker speaker wire. Wiring is something you don't want to be cheap on. Bigger is better and OFC has the best conductivity. Make sure you don't buy crappy rcas also. QUALITY WIRING IS A MUST FOR BEST POWER TRANSFER AND SIGNAL QUALITY. So don't go cheap on inferior wiring and wonder why your system sounds like DOO DOO.

Incorrect kit purchased

The following review is for 09PK4, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

It didn't have in any rca cables because you didn't purchase the FULL-SPEC COMPLETE POWER KIT which would have been ZCK4 for 2 channel amps and ZCK44 for 4 channel amps

GREAT KIT but WARNING to buyers!!

The following review is for 09PK4, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

I must have not been paying attention while purchasing this kit, but this kit is pretty much just for powering your spears and does not contain any RCA cables. if you were like me you want to purchase the Kicker kit with 2 channel rca cables for your sub! Just so you don't make the same mistake i did haha. But besides all that this kit is awesome. I like it a lot. Its very flexible and carries the power I need. Love it and recommend it!

Kicker ZI26 (09ZI26)

The following review is for 09ZI26, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Damaged my ears!

The following review is for SPG555-2, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This sub can be found for $350. I bought mine with the 1 f^3 factory sealed enclosure, then cut an oval out of the back (opposite the driver) and installed the passive radiator (free +3db with dummy cone) tuned to 30hz (with supplied weights). I am powering it with an MTX 81000-D, birth sheet says 1308 watts rms into my subs 2ohm load. I have read the SPG can take 1800 watts rms. I don't doubt this, as I am shopping for a bigger amp now. I have the gain set for 51 volts at my max volume, which shows no clipping on my oscilloscope and equals 1300 watts on my 2 ohm Boston. Have not melted the coil at max volume yet. Max temp of the plastic on the outer ring of the outside of the voice coil (its perimeter) I have measured with a laser no contact thermometer is 212 F. It did not fail at that temp. I did melt the coil once with the same amp, but gain was set too high on a road trip (6hrs of Tech 9 and Mike Jones) and it was clipping the signal. I did not have and oscilloscope or volt meter (51v rms ='s 1300w) to set the gain on the road. The replacement surround and voice coil just keeps getting louder, and runs cooler. It has been about 2 months of listening at full volume Bass Mekaniks and still the spider is getting looser and the sub getting louder, and now runs at about 98F after HARD hitting tracks. I also blew the surround out once when my girl opened my truck at full volume, thus unloading the driver and allowing over excursion (stretching the foam surround excessively). Evidence it is getting louder: volume 24 was max voltage for the amp and listenable. Now, volume 18 hurts my ears. My left ear is ringing and popping during the day, and my girl friend says both her ears are waxing more and damaged. Also, the whole car is shaking now, window, seats, dash, sodas in the console. Also, DVD navigation disc in the trunk just skipped and wouldn't operate for the first time the other day. This sub was made to conquer the 13W7 (and I read it did), Boston is way underrated, and audiophile grade. That is why I bought this, is does not distort a note, and shakes my whole car, all for 1 cubic foot! The only other sub that could come close for 1 cubic foot per sub would be Premier SPL sub. Recommended 1.5 f^3 per 12". So, 2 x 12= 3 Premier SPL. Also, equals 3 SPG + 3 passive radiators, total, 3 cubic ft. Although, the RE XXX does recommend max of 1.1 cubic ft sealed for their 12", and JBL MKII 12" recommends 1 cubic ft for sealed 12. Can somebody produce a louder sub in 1 cubic ft that Boston with the SPG 555 teamed with the passive radiator (which increases output by 3db but doesn't affect box volume)?

This sub hits low and hard. If you don't have much room get this; it is a very high quality product.

Amazing sound quality.

The following review is for SPG555-2, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

After learining about passive radiator setups, I sold my two 12" Type-R's and decided to replace them with this one sub, backed with its counterpart, the SPG-TR. I built the box to specs recommended in the owner's manual, and I couldn't be happier with it. I have yet to hear the 30 hz or the 45 hz setup, but the 35 hz setting has pleased me thus far. The low end really booms, while maintaing a smooth transfer into the higher notes. Its really amazing how low the little 1 cubic foot box can hit. If your looking for truly flat response, you might look elsewhere; it really spikes around the tuning frequency of the passive radiator. For anyone looking to save some space and still have a strong low end with great sound quality, it cant be beat. I got my trunk back and can tell little difference in volume level. Running it off a Rockford T1000BDCP which puts out around 1200 watts at 1.6 ohms (which this sub is). Very pleased with my decision.

Boston SPG555-2

The following review is for SPG555-2, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

So i bought this from Sonic and the first sub I received looked like it had been used or an open box. I called Sonic and worked it out and they sent me out a new one. Seems to be much better condition (new). I have owned many many subs from JL Audio, Rockford Fosgate and so on. I had a Rockford T1 12 that sounded very good but i wanted just a little bit more boom. I read many reviews on this sub and decided to go with it. I got lucky and bought the Ported/Vented Subwoofer Enclosure from a buddy of mine for a very good price.

This sub really makes some good BASS. I have to say WOW
I am using a Rockford T1500-1bd amp with plenty of power. Musically the sub performs very well and when you want to make this sub hit it has no problem doing it. I am considering buying a second one from Sonic. If you are reading this i would say go for it.

wow is not enough

The following review is for SPG555-2, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Ok so here is what I had, JL 10w7 and a 500/1v2 now I have a spg555-2 and a Rockford fosgate t15000-1bdcp. And it smokes the jl in every way. Sq and spl are not even close, the Boston wins hands down. I have my sub in the SQ box that Boston gives specs on in the owners manual. Its tight, fast and stupid deep bass. I can say I was on the fence when I sold my W7 and now I laugh. Half the price and twice the output. This sub is like 92db you don't need any power at all to run it. I love it will never give it up.

No complaints

The following review is for 09ZI26, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Wish these were just a tad longer, but that's my fault for having a Suburban. They seem to perform well (no noise like my previous setup). And they went with my blue wire theme well (the wife's requirement for my install).

I definitely suggest the four-channel model (Kicker ZI46) instead of two of these, if your setup requires it (I used the ZI46's for my 4-channel amp). These are great for my sub channels, however.

Great.

The following review is for 09PK4, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This wiring is great stuff. The only problem with it is that it doesn't come with speaker wire but the guy that installed my stuff hooked me up and gave it to me for free. Looks great and has the Kicker name along with an extra year warranty on your kicker amp and subs if you use this wiring. Have to say that's an awesome feature to this wire that is well worth the price.

Great sub

The following review is for SPG555-2, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Just for your info this sub can handle anywhere from 100-1000rms...and it is light weight. I have it hooked up to the rear channel of a T8004, I'm giving around 600rms to it, in a sealed enclosure and i have to say i love the way it sounds. For simple use this sub will be more then enough if you have around 500-600rms. This sub only has pros in my book with only two cons, first it only has a single voice coil, 2 or a 4, but that is almost not a con for you can switch out the voice coils at any time with ease. Second you have to either make a sealed box yourself, i think this site has a ported, or convert a one cubic foot box into an oval shape.

On another note i have not tried to max this thing out to see how loud i can get it for that isn't what I'm using it for. I use this for quality sound and i am impressed with it, though if i were to put it in a ported i doubt i would be able to hear for long for its already loud as is. For those of you debating on getting a cheaper sub i would give the cash for this one any day for i was debating on going cheaper and I'm sure glad i didn't. This is one nice sounding sub.

Worth the money

The following review is for 12ZXS1000.1, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

You wont regret this amp it has the all the power it claims and then some. I've had this amp for the past couple of months and i can say that it is the best amp I've bought so far and I've owned hifonics, rockford, and some other assorted ones. I will be buying another one for my car since i have an 18" Fi BTL and that will be a sufficient power supply for it. One thing i also noticed is this amp is very efficient. Even more so than Rockford Fosgate.

great amp

The following review is for 12ZXS1000.1, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

I upgraded from the zx750.1 08 model to this and this definetly has more power. There is no whining noise with this amp. I have it hooked to two CVT 12's in a single cab. I have the gain & the bass boost at half. Btw the Kicker logo lights up as a red circle on the top.

Buy this amp, you won't regret it.

The following review is for 12ZXS1000.1, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

What can I say, Kicker got it all right with this amp. I picked up this amp a few days ago and my assessment is this:

The amp is very small, +1. It stays cool for me, unbelievably cool. After pounding my subs for a long duration it finally got WARM. My amp came with a birth sheet that said 1057 Watts RMS, so i exceeds rated power. The wire inputs and adjustments are well placed and the set screws are all the same size, +1. The sound it produces is very clean bass over a wide range of frequencies, +1. 5 Stars for me. If you have any doubts get rid of them. My truck has never hit this hard and this amp is underrated on everything!! This amp is a complete beast! The adjustments on the top are perfect. Kicker has set the standard this year on their ZXS amps. Thank You Kicker, this was worth every bit of my hard earned money.

The nylon braid over the first part of the wire is very durable and withstands the extreme heat of my engine, its running directly over the top of my engine zip tied to a strut bar...Carries plenty of power for my 900 rms watt amp and is extremely flexible in small areas, kit doesnt come with rcas or speaker cable but thats perfect if you dont need them

Great Bass

Great speaker i own two my self with a Pro Bass box with that old 4000 watt Boss amp and they are awesome people think i have way more than whats really there. The best part about this speaker is that any part of it is fixable by just unscrewing it even the voice coil witch i found out was just 60 bucks. so basically the amount you pay for them is kinda worth it i mean i think i could have gotten some cheap 18's for the same price but in my book this speaker was worth my time and money to get it right
