New wiring - any issues with Knukoncepts?

[howie777]

Hello,

Like an idiot, I did a temp install for my SR6500's and C400.4 amp and didn't leave any extra speaker wire so I could clean up later. I bought everything from KnuKoncepts and had some quality issues with what I got and just a pain in the ass issue. The RCAs I got from them are not very good for two reasons, one the length of the RCA connnectors is a bit too long (still fits under the amp cover plate, but would be a lot nicer if I had shorter cables). Two, one of the covers for the RCA connector (covers where the wire is soldered to the terminal) doen't actually fit, it slides on/off without any twisting motion so you can't grab the connector and pull it off, just the cover will come off. The pain in the ass issue is with the twisted pair of speaker wire, it is a pain to get through the rubber tubing used to shield the cables in the door jam due to its size, any tips on acccomplishing this easier or should I go with non twisted pair which is smaller due to not having the plastic cover around both wires.

All that being said, since I want replace both the RCA and speaker wire, any suggestions to brand names (RCA's with shorter connectors, or speaker wire that isn't twisted pair)? Or should I just get more knu speaker wire and get them to fix the RCA?

Yeah, you can't use a full size locking RCA connector with the 400.4. I ended up using Stinger IC's.

I've never had issues with their stuff either. I think the only issue you have is the RCA connection not being secure. This I am sure that they can help you with. All the other issues are not a knukoneptz quality problem. I have a set of Monster Cable Micro XLN cables on my 4ch amp. My old Kicker amps (ZR and ZX) did not have alot of room for RCA's under the caps either, so this worked out great. By the way, Cody gave you some good options to use.

You get what you pay for I guess. 20' of RCA's for $10 and you may get some crap.
