I am going to install a KX600.1 in my car....looking for info on the smallest size I can use this is going to be the only amp for now...I also need info on the best style box for a Kicker L7 DVC....its been a long time for car audio for me..and the last box's that were how back in the day were 5orders and 7order quazzi's...like I said its been a long time..

 

smaller the better, but you probably won't need more than 4ga.

use a kicker 4 guage wire kit

 

what about the Box?

 

the best sounding L7's i have heard have been in ported box's that were designed pretty much dead on to the kicker specs. hope that helps

 

You say "only amp for now", you planning on installing more down the road?

If so, I'd run 0/1 to a distribution block and save any pita later.

 

well...for now I am going to stay with one amp...more then likely it will stay this way...this set up is for my MiNi Van.

 

for the length of the van you'll need 4ga. or bigger on that amp and like the guy said the ported box will probably be the best for your mini

 

amp is going under the passenger front seat...that way I can still fold the rear down if needed...so I only need a short piece of wire...I would also rather have a sealed box...only because of all my kids...any thing thats over sub is going to get poked/stabed/kicked....

 

an 8ga wire will carry 150 amps over a 10ft length with no problems. If its a family car I would just run 8ga with 14ga output wire.
