Can i wire all of these speakers to the amp and what wiring kit would i need, any help would be grateful. Thanks for your help |

You have a to have two or 3 amps for your setup. 1 for the sub, and one for 6*9 and doot speakers. you could run these on separate amps if you wanted as well. My knowledge on the Type R subs isn't too great but from what i've heard these bad boys can take a lot of punishment so you might need to buy a new amp to get the most out of it. with regards to wire gauge, heres a link with some information on it http://www.bcae1.com/wire.htm |

What you can do is bridge two channels to run the sub (we would need to know whether it's the 2 or 4 ohm version to tell you how it needs to be wired). And you can run the 6x9's and door speakers on the other 2 channels. An 8 ga amp kit MIGHT work ok, but to be sure it would probably be a good idea to go with 4 ga, plus it would give you room to add another few hundred watts worth of amp power in the future. |
