Knu Konceptz KLM Line

Hey guys, just found this site, heard a couple good things about it, actually great things. www.knuconceptz.com .. Just wondering if any1 has tried the KLM line of power wire, i know its the cheapest so its probably not the best, but Im not looking to compete. Ive got an Ultra Linear Amp(requires 1/0 wire) and a 400 rms Kicker comp cvr12. Any ever tried the KLM stuff?should i stay away or just go for it. money is one of the main factors right now for me as i have school in the fall and extremely high insurance lol. Thanks!

I dont think so, thanks tho. Im probably just going to buy the AMP setup kit. I read a review on the CCA stuff, and they say its actually bigger than the normal 1/0, so it is equal in curreent flow.

alright thats good, i figured 1/0 of the KLM would be fine since i really only need 400 watts max. Thanks for the help.

i ran 250 rms off 0 gauge, best possible way to get clean current. Voltage never dropped. And yes i know you wont see much voltage drop from 40-60 amps, but bigger is always better when it comes to wire.

don't forget the upgrade ability aspect

i started off with 300w + 140w rated amps off 0 ga, moved on to almost 1kw to more later in steps...

well the amp calls for 1/0 wire. I thought that if i ran 4 ga it wouldnt be supplying a sufficient ammount of power and would fry the amp or something. I dont know much about this stuff. Am i ok to use 4ga if im only running 400 rms?even if the amp is supposed to be wired with 1/0?thanks
