Default knukoncept RCAs

Has anyone bought RCAs from kunkoncepts? If so, which ones did you buy? Do you recommend them?
I want good RCAs, not necessarily the highest of the high, but I want good performance. Which ones are recommended? Thanks

Yes. Nice stuff at a nice price. Not custom made, but they work and have a decent EMI shield. I have not had one go bad yet, and I have already been through 2 pair of Rockford Fosgate RCA's in that same time!

More than half of us use Knukonceptz. Their Krystal line is exceptional, and ALL of their wiring is very high quality stranded copper, or oxygen free silver plated.

just a suggestion - if you're running 4 channels to the same amp (front &
rear) get the 4-channel RCAs - easier to run than two 2-channel ones (very
important to me as I went through the center console).

How "fat" is the 4-channel Krystal? looking at the pictures of the center tunnel, it appears that there are two raised areas, one at each side, under which you could pass the wire. Would this 4-channel cable fit?

The shortest length of 4-channel cable offered is 4M. I have the amp mounting board for the spare tire area, and can't imagine that I'd need 16' of cable to reach the back of the HU from there. What is the minimum length of cable needed for that run, and would I be better off finding an alternate cable in that length?

I'll be running components and a sub from a 4-channel PPI amp.

I have one 4-channel and one 2-channel Krystal RCA, as well as two
twisted-pair speaker wires running through my center console. If you're
going through the console to the spare tire area, 3-meter RCAs should
work, if you find ones you like in that length.

I assume you have the 4M cables. Did you just wind up the excess in the trunk area near your amp?
