Yes the brand of the wiring kit does not matter, any 2 channel kit will do. A 2 channel 8 awg will do the job fine ...

So will that kit i listed be alright? I can't tell if it is an 8awg or not, it says it is 8 ga.

Hmmmm, i just noticed something. In the Amps item description it says requires 10GA cables. Would the amp work with 8GA cables?

your 10 G in a car should do 50 amps easy
your 8 G in a car should do 100 amps easy

Hi Rob,
Thanks for the info, very helpful.
The amp im getting is:
50 watts RMS x 2 at 4 ohms
65 watts RMS x 2 at 2 ohms

And im only powering 1 set of splits so an 8 G wiring kit should work fine hey

8ga wire is still pretty small. If it doesn't fit in the amp then the amp probably isn't worth having. It probably means 10ga is the minimum
