best place to buy wire???

ok guys, im at the point that im ready to wire up the truck. whats the best place to buy wire? i checked the local stores and no one carries any good wire. all their 1/0AWG is the size of 8 gauge with a lot of insulation. i have had good success with stinger HPM wire, but im open to suggestions.

1) best place to get wire at the lowest price.

2) suggestions on the "best" power wire.

3) what is a good distribution block to get?

i need to get 1/0 AWG, 4 gauge, speaker wire, and a 1 into 2 distribution block.

thanks in advance

Most beople on this forum go to:

They are great and prices are very reasonable. They also have really good distribution blocks, fuse holders, etc. You name it they've got it, plus they ship really fast. I dropped a number of $$ at their online store.

Stinger isnt what they used to be... They started skimping on their wires more and more.

I put my faith in Kicker, Knu and RF. And yes, I know im running some POS Tsunami wires... Dont rub it in anymore than necessary please.

Great stuff here, got my RCAs and speaker wire here at knukonceptz. My power/ground 1/0 is a kicker amp kit i got off ebay. Excellent stuff, the power wire is thick yet surprisingly flexible.
