Pro:
*Very, very thick power and ground cable. Seems to be of good quality. Extremely Rugged.
*3000 watts rated. Severe overkill for my application, but I doubt my amp will complain (though I will have to get a smaller fuse.)
*Lots of connectors included
*RCA cable is shielded, seemingly of good quality.
*Speaker cable is impressive, 12g, better than some home theatre wiring. As previously noted, however, there is only 20 feet of it, not 33 as stated in the details.
*Free shipping (and quick, too)
*Cheap! (26$ vs 80$+ for Monster 1000w, and thats a 4&8 gauge kit)
Con:
*Fuse holder arrived with a chipped cap, so the rubber seal is loose. Might compromise water-tightness, but could easily (if unattractively) be solved with a bit of electrical tape. I am pursuing the possibility of a replacement cap with Amazon.
*Ground cable shorter than advertised, closer to 2 feet.
*Fuse holder allen screws are apparently metric. Inconvenient, as I only have standard.
Neutral:
*Severely overpacked, as Amazon often does. Arrived in a 12"x12"x10" box filled with air bags. Wasteful.
*Included rubber grommets are too large for the cable. Easily replaced at any hardware store.
*Split loom feels a bit cheap, but I had no intention of using it.
Overall I would recommend this item. Thick, quality cable, everything included to wire a single amp, at a very competitive price. Despite the chipped fuse holder and shorter-than-advertised ground cable, I would buy again. Would have gotten five stars but for these two issues.

this was my first purchas for wiring. it was a very cheep package that came with everything needed. my only complaint is the interconnects provided are not of high quality. they produced awfull scratching noises caused from the oddest things, like turning on the air conditioning on high or turning the fog lights on and off. my recomendation is that if you buy this kit, that you replace the interconnects with some Monster interconnects. after switching to monster my system performed perfect.

The Description is a little off but for the price paid - this is a great kit - the description states that the wire is 2 gauge - maybe the insulation makes it that thickness but the actual wire itself is only 4 gauge wire - other than that - a very well put together kit - everything for what you need - 17 feet went from my battery to the capacitor in my trunk of my Grand Cherokee - but I needed to go out and buy another two feet for the connection between the capacitor and the amp - Id definately recommend it to anyone just trying to hook up an amp and not looking for show or overkill

this is very good product but the length of the power cord is a little short it is a 17ft power cord and a 3 ft ground cable. the power cord nearly fits into my trunk of my oldsmobile cutlass supreme. otherwise great product for price @ best buy the price just for the agu fuse holder is twenty dollars and its a 8-4 awg holder not a 2 awg holder that comes with this one i bought here. So very good product but could use a little more length.

It says 2 guage but the package i recieved definitely was not a 2 Guage. On the wires themselves they say 2 Guage but its at best a 4 gauge. Dont get me wrong, I think its a good deal still especially with the free shipping. If you need to wire more then one amp then this isnt what you want.

I had my sub installed at Best Buys and the kit worked perfect.
Also, it was delivered pretty fast.

The product description says that the power cable is 20 long. I opened the kit and noticed that the power cable couldnt reach my trunk. Then I read the front of the kit, and I found out that the power cable is only 17 long. 17 of power cable should be long enough for most cars, but if you drive an SUV or a long car (like my linc. towncar), youll most likely come up short.
