Suggestions on amp wiring kit for JL Audio J2 1000.1 amp?
As the title says, I'm looking for an amp wiring kit that work with my amp. Its a 1000 watt ( at 1 ohm) monoblock amp that will be powering 2 10 inch JL Audio w3 subs. I want a kit that will have everything necessary for the install. I know I'm able to buy the wires individually but I rather buy a wiring kit that includes everything that I'll need.

Any suggestions on a specific kit to get?

Thank you in advance!

Wow that's pricy. Isn't that a bit over the top? Also, wouldn't that kit apply to someone using 2 amps?

I realize that, but I've done the math. It's still able to carry the amount of current you want without issues.

If you really want 100% copper, they sell those too. And I'll put their prices and customer service against anything else you can find.
