so ive decided to get the amp in the link below to power everything in my car (pertaining to audio). 2 channels will be used for the speakers mounted in the kicks and the remaining 2 channels will be bridged at 4ohm for the 4 8" subs. The amp itself since it is 25" long, will be mounted to the rear hatch door in a flush "enclosure". A single run of 4ga wire will power the amp and a combo of 2con and 4con will be used for the subs/speakers. I will be making my own RCAs from shieled home speaker wire which has 3 pairs of wire - perfect for front, rear, and sub channels. Ofcourse I will only be using front and sub, but oh well.

TXA-6004

Great choice on the cadence... they're BBBBIIIIIIIIGGGG though! What do you mean it will be mounted to the rear hatch in a flush enclosure? Please elaborate.

meaning I will take the existing panel off of the rear hatch (the door part, not the window) and make my own which will house the amp - custom fiberglass ofcourse possibly ABS plastic too.

Sounds interesting... you will have to leave slack in all the wires for when the door is opened right?

small update. My cadence 6004 showed up today. Quite impressed with it. Cant wait to get it installed.

This is how it will be installed (flush ofcourse)


(external bass controller for a nice little added bonus)
