Car stereo wire gauge Videos

@shaochiavang Sure, try it! Speaker wire is really not all that expensive per foot and I know that the bass frequencies seem to carry better over larger gauge wire. I suppose at the end of the day it's still just an electrical connection but you have to choose the wire that will best send those electrons from one device to another...EXPERIMENT! Only you know what sounds good to you.

um thay say smaller fans work great but i like one big fans i might ave to say a bunch of small fans whould cool better but just to say if you whant to move alota air and keep it silent use a 120 any thing lower might get a bit louder because it needs to spin faster kuz area of the blades on a smaller fan is not so big so it has to spin faster to get that air flow. ~omellykim :P

I thinking about running 8 gauge wire from my Rockford Fosgate AMP (320 watts rms @ 4 ohms ) (500 watts rms @ 2 ohms) to my //////\LPINE type R12. If the 320 watts @ 4 ohms isn't enough for me, i'm gonna run it down to 2 ohms. What do you think of that setup? The Sub is rated at 500 watts rms and 1,500 watt peak (not 100% sure on the peak)

I use 16 g for my surrounds (polkaudio) which are ran about 28ft through the wall. they sound just the same as when I ran 12 g right through the room. I use 12g on my mains because they draw lots more juice with 12 inch Cerwin Vega Re 30 series.

DON'T LISTEN TO THIS MAN! Even if your distance is not long from the receiver to the speakers you will STILL hear a difference in sound quality by using a larger gauge speaker wire! Even if your setup is crummy!!

also remember he is not talking about physical distance to the speaker, rather how long the length of cord needs to be after you have run it up and down your wall, under the bed or sofa and all that.

definately not. if anything, its better. its even stated in this video. a thicker wire has less resistance. your amp doesnt have to work as hard to produce the same signal.

I hate it how on most pc cases for the front audio plugs they have such thin wires going to it. It reduces the quality too much, so you just have to plug it in the back

Hi,am i ruining my receiver amp? i have 8 awg speaker wires. Hsuresearch says,they recommend at lease 16 awg for runs under 10 ft. and the front stage is under 10 ft.

hi . i have a questions.. my receiver has 140 wt/ch and is 7.1 system what kind of wire i shot use for front , back(loudspeakers) centre,??????please help me

I use 2 gauge wire to hook-up my speakers cause I buy all the hype and dont understand science. I also ensure to buy only Monster branded cables.

GO HERE >>>GOOGLE>>>"what speaker wire gauge per feet" Click on the first hit "speaker wire". I'm so old I remember the Stereo Review article.

Stop giving bullshit advice to people. The speaker-wire gauge required it depends on the impedance of the speakers as well as the distance..

kind of old school..idk if your talking about powering it or whatever...but to be on the safe side id go with 12...no matter what

I have a 400w rms amplifier running at 200w rms @ 4 ohm and will need about 19ft of wires for my car...what size wire do I need?

Cheers

+Laviec Ellis you can get banana plugs that accept 10 gauge wire from Amazon.com and other audio websites. This wire is a bit over-sized but I'm sure it will fit with a little trimming.

+XShadowHazeX is it too big?

+Laviec Ellis If the banana plugs can except 10 gauge wire then I would assume so.

Nice science, doc! :)

Roy was funny xD first i thought it was ur mom :)

@Rubenwbrk Roy Is a weird one :)

Help, lets get his pot of gold.

Spoiled batch

- Hey man, judging from the headunit performance, it has not missed a beat, So that being said, it's a pretty amazing headunit :) I love it.. its amazing :) so yeah i would recommend it man :) Its allgood! :D thank you for the comment man. hope i could help :D

That's good but to get the best connection you need a flame torch and soldier. You melt the soldier inside the connector then put the wire in the connector and let the soldier cool. It's the most reliable way to do it.

- That's good man :D ill be honest.. i sparked a few lights when i was installing this wire haha, oh well.. at least we all know the battery has some power in it :P Goodluck with the big 3 man! :D

Hey dude just a Q.. Im about to buy a pioneer headunit you had an unboxing of.. The PIONEER MVH1450UB. Can you confirm that headunits allgood? Cheers man

Thank you dude, yeah the big 3 is one of the main things in car audio in my opinion haha :) - Thank you for the comment man!! :D

- Hey man, yeah scratched the paint off, and oh god no man.. I got a hammer and slammed tthem/Cripped them haha :)

Hey man i did the same thing with my corolla turns out it was the power lead for the acc

- Thank you for the tip, i did shorten down one before :D Thank you for commenting :D

Hey man good work.. I did the big 3 upgrade last year. Made a big diff. Good shit

Shorten the cable to the Alt dude make it as short as you possibly can

did it? :O, Thank you so much! That Brighten my day Thank you :D

Damn it your advertising worked way too well, subbed in seconds.

You give me the courage to wanna do the big 3 by myself ^____^

- Thank you man :D Hopefully i get more videos up soon!!

- yeah true man, Cars have many problems :(

please get a torch and solder next time

looks like he used birch wood which is stronger then MDF

Aww man... Here we go LOL. Look, I DO know audio stuff... I might not know as much details like you, but I KNOW what I got, and know it's wired correctly now. Also I know what it would take to really have it BOOMING.... But I already have a trunk setup that was built around the box (which was built for specifically B-Body's to keep trunk room). It is the wrong box for those powerful RF subwoofers. I could change it, but that's more $$ than I want to spend right now. And the trunk looks good as is, and I'm happy with how loud my system gets. But appreciate on helping out if I needed it..

Singer Alternator... Read description for more info. 

I have 0 gauge all the way thru. My mid/high's amp can only hold 4 gauge wire.

I seen ur second video u sound dam good

I got the same ones in my box check it out

Yes sir!

Nope a ported box need to made and tuned to a certain hertz it won't work just making a hole as a port also dividers aren't needed this type of sub box is called shared chamber look it up he just didn't build it proper.

Pretty much what +yungkidnf just said. It was dressed up, but all the internal stuff was messing up! Now I've fixed it.

He jus had it "beutified" before, NOW he beefing it up
