Default what cables do i need

hey guys i will be betting my pdx-f4 amp and spr-60c components installed early next week. i already have a pioneer 3200ub headunit in place. i wasnt too sure on what cables i need. crutchfield told me i needed a 4 gauge amp kit and an extra rca cable. will this kit suffice?

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...pf_rd_i=507846

can someone recommend an extra rca cable if i need it? some seem to be $40 and some seem to be $4. thanks in advance!

Yes, that will be everything you need. The only thing you might be short on is some speaker wire. The kit comes with some but you'll also have to run you lines from the head unit to the amp. I didn't see how much the kit came with so you'll just have to see if it has enough and go from there.

hey thanks for your reply.

i have researched on the kits more and it seems like most people advise not to get a cheap kit. a lot of people recommend knukonceptz. iyo, are those kits and RCA cables something i should be looking into? thanks!

There are a few things that you get with a crappy amp kit. Bad RCS's, the actual out of copper used in the power and ground.( 4awg of insulation but only 10awg of copper), crappy fuse holder and low amp fuses. So if you have had good feedback, then I wouldn't be to worried about it. Good luck with the install.
