Default Wiring Suggestions and recommended wires...

I am hooking this amp:

up to 2 of these subs:

In the Scion tC Box QD-TC-2 from this company:

I am a little confused on what wire i should b using and what wire would give me the best sounds, but not for an obsurd price... i already have the stock sub in my trunk, hoping to use the wires from that to connect to my main stereo system... also i was planning on a parallel wire format from these subs to the amp, so i get all 300watts i paid for...

You will need a LOC and then set of RCAs. Also necessary is power wire from the battery, ground, and a remote wire.

Id order this http://www.knukonceptz.com/productDe...rodID=KOL-AK44

and search ebay for a Line out converter. I used a Stinger SALOC in my car and it worked well

NOt sure how much help the wiring from the stock sub will be, Id just run new wires from the back of the HU incase you decide you wanna upgrade that later.

Get an 8ga. power and ground wire for the amplifier (4ga. probably WOULD be better in case you wanted to upgrade later). The stock wiring isn't enough for hardly any power. Like mentioned, you'll need a LOC to hook RCA's to the back of your HU

For the price, Id go ahead and get 4 guage from the link above. I mean $40 for everything with speaker wire is cheap as hell. Good stuff too.
