Right, with almost all my bits of kit having arrived (apart from my feckin blackbox 4 amp ), I need to start laying down some wiring for my new system.
My question is, what type of wiring am I going to need?
The wiring needs to cope with a CBR 12 Active EVO sub. The amp on that puts out:
However, when my blackbox 4 amp FINALLY arrives, that puts out:
Anyway, providing your still following (I hope you are), my question is, what is a good kit to get? I have been advised on a 4awg kit, but havent seen many which cope with 2000w which arent very steep in price. Something which I did see though was 1awg kit (didnt know it even existed) which can hold up to 3500w, and at a very reasonable price, being reduced and all.
Only problem is, im not sure how thick 1awg cable is? would it be a hassle to run down the door sills, etc, or would I be better off with a 4awg kit?
Sorry for the very long post, but any help would be apprieciated guys.

The wiring needs to cope with a CBR 12 Active EVO sub. The amp on that puts out:
- 600 Watts Max
- 300 RMS (at 4 Ohm)
- 800 Watts Max
- 4 x 100 RMS (at 4 Ohm)
However, when my blackbox 4 amp FINALLY arrives, that puts out:
- 1400 Watts Max
- 4 x 110 RMS (at 4 Ohms), or 4x175 (at 2 Ohms)
