Knukonceptz, because they're all you need and I can't see a lower price overall for their products. They have everything, and all is quality for the most part.

I've used monster cable, stinger and streetwires in my installs. My most current setup is using mainly streetwires cabling. My reasoning was that it is good quality stuff, and reasonably priced. I'm also using some monstercable XLN speaker wire which seems to be quality stuff as well.

I would agree with Chad as well, Knukoncepts stuff is very reasonably priced, and seems to be of good quality.

copper is copper therefore wire is wire. As long as you have sufficient gauge then i wouldn't worry.

Thanks guys, but if all you look at is low price, then you get what you pay for. A good is example of this is 4 gauge power wire, compare a good Scosche EFX 4 gauge wire to a "cheap" brand like Vizser and you'll see the difference. Can you say stick it up your a$$ with cheap wire. Nothing worse than having to replace something 2 months later, strip it out of the customers car and replace it with the better product. Use a good quailty wire like some of those listed above and I'll add Lightning, EFX, Rockford and there are a whole pile of others.

Ya I like the hooker stuff. I am tryin to do a clean setup, and everything that matchs nicly... I also wnat just 1 company. I do agree that copper is copper and wire is wire... But I still want something that has a nice looking and quality.. Ilike the hooker battery clamps, and some of the distro blocks... I also like the Tiff products... I love the connecters and the design theyy have put on them... I guess I want something that looks really nice and really clean after install... I like some of the Knu stuff, but after I have seen more companies, Im starting to like the other stuff just as much, except I havent seen the prices for all of it... So if someone can let me know if they can get deals from Tiff, Streetwires, Hooker, Knu, and anyother that can match the looks and quality... Thanks guys!

Hooker Audio by far has the coolest logo and name [img]smile.gif[/img]

I have it throughout my Regal, but I have Streetwires in my Accord.

You will pay more for Streetwire though...........

Tiff is long gone by the way, it didn't make it thru the Mitek purchase........Tiff was originally made by a seperate company but they had streetwires make it for them then they were sold to Streetwires.........
