Item description

Its hard to believe that years ago KnuKonceptz brought CCA center stage to the car audio community. A product then known as our KLM series would go on to change the car audio world. Today its the standard all other CCA cables are held to as demonstrated in our Amp Kit Review.

The KCA Kable is the next generation of our Copper Clad Aluminum (CCA) power and ground cables. Succeeding its fellow models before it, the new KCA 8 Gauge uses the same of 12.61mm^2 of Copper Clad Aluminum (CCA) and then wrapped in ultra flexible PVC for amazing flexibility. This rugged PVC outer jacket is impervious to grease, oil and can with-stand the extreme temperatures (-40 to 105 C).

Included in the KCA-K8 Amp installation kit are all the parts required for one complete amplifier installation. All the proper hardware, fuse holder with an 50A Mini-ANL type fuse, ring terminals, and cabling are provided to deliver the a maximum current transfer to your amplifier. Signal is transferred from your head unit via our Bassik Twisted Pair RCA Cable, a 5 Meter Oxygen Free Copper RCA. From the amplifier, our Bassik CCA speaker wire guides your music to the speakers, twenty(20) feet of 14 gauge speaker cable is included with this wiring kit.

Oversized vs Other CCA Cable

Our Kolossus Copper Aluminum (KCA) series cable was designed specifically to be larger than the competition. Copper Clad Aluminum is less conductive than Oxygen Free Copper when comparing like sized conductors. CCA however is also much less expensive. So by increasing the area in our KCA cable, KnuKonceptz was able to achieve similar performance to OFC, but without the higher cost.

For this exact reason is why our cable is larger, to achieve similar performance as OFC amp kits, for less money.

Bassik RCA Cable – Simple and Solid

  • Oxygen Free Copper construction.
  • Twisted Pair Geometry for noise rejection.
  • Ultra Flex, soft touch PVC allows this cable to fit in tight places.
  • Simple color coded channel identification.
  • Gold plated RCA connectors

Plain and Simple Specifications

 

  • Wire type – CCA or OFC

These materials are commonly used, but not commonly stated when shopping online. Know what you are purchasing. Both metals are capable of performing up to their rated loads.

  • American Wire Gauge

Wire gauge is crucial to powering your system correctly. Undersized cable will create unsafe conditions and may shorten your amplifier’s life.

  • Max Load (amps)

Wire’s ampacity changes with gauge and materials. KnuKonceptz does not rate cable based on watts. Amplifier manufactures do not always truthfully state the output of their product, check your on board fuses!

True American Wire Gauge (AWG) Products

  • Using American Wire Gauge standards, the gauge of stranded wire is determined by the total area of the conductor.
  • To calculate this you would take the area of each strand and add it together. This area, in square mm, then determines gauge.
  • Diameter is not as critical with stranded wire, this is due to the tiny air gaps between each strand. Diameter may fluctuate with strand size and how tightly wound the rope of the cable is.
  • The smaller the number, the larger the wire, until you reach zero or aught (0). From zero, you then have double aught (00 or 2/0), three aught (000 or 3/0) …
  • Based on AWG, the true gauge of this cable is 7 Gauge, larger than traditional 8 gauge

Copper Clad Aluminum – Best Value

  • Copper is the best conductor, but the price, Oversized CCA is the best value.
  • By Increasing the conductor size, we can offset the conductivity differences while maintaining a lower price.
  • Always follow the manufacture’s max rating on battery cable.
  • Excessive loads will cause more distortion in amplifiers, create more heat, and will shorten the life of your electronics
  • Proper termination is crucial, poor connections will create poor performance.
  • CCA is not recommended for Marine or UTV applications.

Frequent questions

  • How many watts can this amp kit handle?

    At KnuKonceptz, we do not use “watts” to rate our amp kits. This is a very inaccurate method to determine what the proper gauge wire required for your amp installation. There are many amp manufactures and not all of them represent the output of their product accurately. Please refer to your amplifier’s fuse rating, this is a number a manufacture can not fake, well they could but it would put their product in harms way! Add up the fuses on the end of your amp (two 30A fuses = 60A total draw) If this number is under 80A, this kit will fit your application. If over 80A, a larger gauge wire would be required or use our Kolossus Flex 4 gauge amp installation kit.

  • Can I alter this kit in any way before purchasing?

    Our amp kits are made in large batches to reduce cost, which is passed onto you. We can not alter them in any way. Should you need to make alterations, you would have to purchase the items individually from our shopping cart.
