If i have a 1100w amp, can i use a 1200w wireing kir or a 1000w wireing kit??

Question

Because i cant get a 1100w wireing kit...

Answer 1

The engine power is not what powers the amps. The bugatti comment is strange. I would  just get the bigger one. The actual current for a 1100W amp is not the same depending on what the real current rating is. Manufacturers can state power different ways. The same rated amp from 3 different companies can have very different power requirements. Also depends on the type of amp it is too.

Answer 2

Close enough is good enough  

use this guide as a rule:

100-400 rms = 8 guage wire kit

500-1200 rms = 4 guage wire kit

1300-1500 rms = 0 guage wire kit

over 1500 rms = 0 guage kit and spare battery near amp

Answer 3

You can always use heavier gauge wire than specified. If you are are going to play a 1.1KW RMS amp from your car, you will need a big engine, a 100bhp engine is ABOUT 75W. You are going the need a Bugatti Veyron to power your amp. And that's without driving it.
