What are the best wires to use for my 700 watt rms (4ohms) set up, as far as power, ground ,remote, speaker, and rca's. What brand do u think i should buy and what guage thickness??
I also want to dynomat my truck as expensive as that stuff is i think it could help my sound quality. What are your oppinions on dynomat, and where would it be nessisary or unnessisary to install it. Thanks for any help guys!

For power wire i used welding cable which is the same just doesn't have as high of a strand count and it can be found very cheap. If you are only planning on running the one amp, use 4 ga from battery to inline fuse/circuit breaker, then to your amp. Use 4 gauge for your ground aswell. If planning on running two amps (i'd highly reccomend running speakers off another amp), then go with 1/0 gauge from battery to fuse then to a distribution block. From there run 4 gauge to both amps or 8 gauge to your speaker amp. I went with stinger dream series rca's but their are bettter ones out there. Use at least 12 gauge for your subs to your amp and any remote wire will do. As for dynamat, don't bother with that expensive stuff. Look into raamat (can be found at raamaudio.com) which is a lot cheaper and is just as effective. I bought 150 sq ft. for my ext cab and have 25 or so ft left to do the roof.
