NVX XKIT02

The following review is for XKIT02, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This is a nice wiring kit no doubt about it. Very sturdy and flexible, easy to work with. It is definitely true 1/0 cable and seems to be pushing the Hifonics BRX2000 amp I have with more than enough power. Rca's are also pretty nice and seem to be working as stated (no feedback or humming). I also like the fact that the battery side of the power cable is pre-sleeved and has the ring terminal already installed for you with heat shrinks as well. Same on the ground cable. Over all its a nice kit, might be a little pricey compared to other kits, but you pay for quality. Well worth the money in my opinion.

Fine Wire

The following review is for XKIT02, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Wires seem accurate. They transfer plenty power but I do have to upgrade battery to turn amp up more only running it at .25(1/4) and even then my lights dim front to back.

Awesome

The following review is for XKIT02, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

I got this kit to wire a boss 2600 watt amp. The wires were huge there was no way I could run it to my amp. The quality was so great that instead of returning it I used it to upgrade my battery cables and my chassis ground. I only wish it came with more ground wire as I need a few more feet to finish my chassis ground upgrade.

Nvx O- Guage Amp kit

The following review is for XKIT02, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

NVX Amp kit is Pure Quality at first I was thinking it was a little pricey
compared to other kits I found online. I went ahead and ordered because it seemed to be best in quality, and sure enough. Awesome kit
I liked it so much I ordered another to rewire my other truck.
Worth every penny and then some!!

Great kit at a great price!

The following review is for XKIT02, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This kit looks great! The wire is definitely true gauge, it measures at 16mm for the housing, and just over 12mm for the wire itself. Having the ends pre-terminated and shrunk guarantees a solid connection without having to buy special tools. The power wire is partially covered in braided sleeving which helps protect it in the engine bay. Fuse block is nice and came with a 150 AMP ANL ( not mini ANL as stated in the description) but no complaints here because that's better considering the amount of current traveling through it. Speaker wire is true 12 gauge as well. Overall excellent kit for the money definitely would recommend!

Best wiring kit!

The following review is for XKIT02, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Probably the best kit I've ever bought. Nice "true to spec" heavy cables but are very flexible and easy to work with. Comes with absolutely everything needed for a clean install. Only negative is the cover for the fuse holder can pop off easily. That is very minor and I would highly recommend this kit especially paired with the NVX JAD 1200.1 amp.

So far so Good!

The following review is for BRX3016.1D, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Had this amp for about a month pushing 4 15" Merlon M7 subs at 1 ohm. Did a Big 3 upgrade, have a 230 amp alternator and a second battery. Has all the adjustments you'll ever need! Have to say it is doing an exceptional job pushing these bad boys and staying just warm. I dont push ot too hard for long periods only because Im in the desert and its about 107°F outside. But for short trips and bursts its awesome! I've owned Brutus amps before and the price they're great amps. Buying from Sonic has always been a pleasant experience and would recommend them every time for your car audio needs!

Perfect

The following review is for XKIT02, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Got this bundled in a deal with my NVX XAD14 amp, The wire is ultra flexible and seems over sized, I used NVX brand wire ferrules for a cleaner look and good connection at all points where I would otherwise had a bare wire connection.

I really love the fuse holder, just be sure if you are installing sideways like say on a fender well you mount it with the side screws for the power wire facing where it’s easiest to access. I mounted mine to the fender with liquid nails LN-2000 and two #8 x 1/2 stainless steel screws after double checking it wouldn’t interfere with hood structure or anything else and drilling a pilot hole for the screws.

I really recommend you get the install bay firewall grommets for this size just in case, they are absolute life savers. My best option was to run powerwire though the passenger floorboards firewall and they make me confident that I will have zero water intrusion.

Seems good quality

The following review is for XKIT02, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Seems good quality and flexible. The reason I gave it 4 stars under features is that it comes with a 12 awg speaker wire. I used 10 awg.

amp

The following review is for BRX3016.1D, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Amp is perfect but I know my speaker can handle more and when I turn that bass up which is pretty high all it takes is for the very lows to make it heat up quickly. Given certain settings the amp does it's job and will hit hard. I have yet to upgrade my wiring to 0 gauge and the big 3 so we will see what it can do after . I'd definitely recommend for a 1000 watt rms speaker maybe even 1500 . At the end I'm thinking of adding another amp for the one speaker so I can get the max on my Orion hccaa.

This Amp is definately worth every penny spent. Pure Power...Barely gets warm .....Im running Two Kicker CVX 15 "... In a monte. With a sealed box. Gonna up grade electrical ....Amp is definately power hungry..... It definately does rated.....And i have more power than i need. I originally owned the brx2416.1d. I just wanted to try the 3016.. They both are great amps....

Not a bad amp.

The following review is for BRX3016.1D, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This is a good amp. I'm only running stock electrical plus big 3 and it pushes my zv4 15" pretty good but that sub could take plenty more power. If you are investing in an expensive system I would go with a top of the line amp and upgrade your electrical. Pros: led lighting on amp, good power. Cons: it gets pretty hot, led lighting, power and other terminals face the bottom so it's a pain to connect 0 gauge wire to.

Good Amp

The following review is for BRX3016.1D, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

I'm running 2 amps both hifonics. This amp pushes my sub I have it on half gain driving a fosgate T1 in a custom down firing t line vented 33hz box. It beats the hell out of it and found the limits of the sub it's self thinking of getting a massive sub but honestly I don't need to I'm not into flexing my roof or popping windshields so I'd be way excessive. At half gain I'm sure in July it won't shut off from overheating. I did the big 3 with all knu konceptz 0 wiring 2 yellow tops and a fosgate 10 Farrad cap. So overheating issues are purely due to performance and not lack of draw. I've got the Kenwood deck in this jeep Kenwood sucks balls. I've got ppi amp fosgate p2d2 and eclipse deck in my 5.0 I'd like to see eclipse come back to the USA so we can have good decks again. But hifonics makes good stuff just make sure your wired right and are using it with in its means.

Horrible Quality

The following review is for BRX3016.1D, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Purchased 2 of them then one stopped working. It started to produce constant tone. Ordered another one to replace the faulty one. It came and the gain did not function. Ordered a third one, it came and dead on arrival. Out on the 4, one has lasted and have had no problems but there must be some series quality issue that I have 3 that were faulty. Would not recommend this to anyone spend more money get a better quality amp.

Best bang for your buck

The following review is for XKIT02, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

I did a lot of research prior to buying this kit. I also bought 20 ft extra of NVX 1/0 to do the big 3 upgrade. Considered GP or one of the other well known competition audio businesses but couldn’t pass this up for the price during Black Friday. The quality of the wire is great and even the fuse in the amp kit seems like decent quality. Having no issues sending power to my amp (Kicker CXA1200.1) and get very little gauge dimming on a stock battery and alternator. I know when I upgrade my system to something bigger it’ll handle it no problem too.

Right out the box i was impressed by how it looks. After hooking it up to 2 12" pioneer championship 2ohm dvc (discontinued) I'm totally satisfied. It's a bit bigger than I thought and I'm running 0 gauge wiring but overall it does what i want it to do and some. One thing it could've come with is a tuning starting point in case your trying to tune it by ear. I definitely recommend this product

Powerful sub amp

The following review is for BRX3016.1D, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Bought this amp to power two Soundqubed HDC3 12" subs. It pounds the heck out of them! My only weak link is my electrical. You NEED to do your big three, and have a strong alternator. I drive a 2011 Crown Vic LX, and plan on getting a Police Interceptor alternator for more power. Even with my current electrical setup, this thing absolutely pounds the 'qubed subs. I had it on two Kicker CVRs, and smoked their voice coils. That's when I knew I had to step up to subs with some serious power handling. I love the lighted Hifonics logo and terminal blocks. I recommend this amp. Wish Sonic Electronix would run it on their SMD amp dyno to see what it really puts out!

High quality wiring kit!

The following review is for XKIT02, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

I received this kit for free, it was a promotion with the purchase of an Audiocontrol LC-5.1300 amplifier. It is my first time dealing with NVX power wire. The kit is of very high quality, from the power and speaker wiring itself, to the pre-installed nylon mesh, power connections, and the fuse holder. This kit makes wiring easy and straight forward. It’s easy to see that there was some good effort placed on the placement of all the pieces along the wire run. Another positive is that the wire fits easily into 0-gauge connections. In the past, it could be very frustrating dealing with wire that was bigger than spec. I get the whole “you’re getting more”, but I’d rather have a wire that meets the spec or maybe a little over, but not so much that it takes away from easily fitting into the connections. From this point on, I’m sold on NVX power wire. I will be looking at them for sure for my future builds.

Side note. I did not use the RCA’s, so I can’t comment on them, but seeing the quality of the kit itself, I wouldn’t be worried about using them.
