big 3- need help finding 2ga wire

[lemmez]

Im going to be installing the big3 this week (to stop the hissing noise from installing a 4 ch amp with stock hu). Where can i buy the 2ga wire locally? ie: best buy, compusa, radio shack, etc.

uhm... when i was looking for some to install my subwoofer and amp, of all of the places listed, the only place that even came close to having what i wanted was Circuit city... they had a couple of kits, but they were all like 4 awg wire... they had SOME 2 awg wire, but nothing near long enough for what i wanted. To run a wire from the battery all the way down the driver side, and across the back seats (my amplifier is mounted to the back of the rear passenger seat) i needed 21 feet, and circuit city was selling it in like 6 foot lengths so you can see where this is going. I ended up buying mine on on ebay for a great price and it came in like 3 days...

is 4awg wire sufficient for the big 3 upgrade? what wire is in there now, it doesn't really look very thick. i have 4awg wire running to my amp right now and i think it's plenty, but im not sure if its enough for the alt/battery connections.

what is the big 3?

[Aotoyota]

alternator
battery and power/ground cables.

for what you are describing, have you checked to see if
its ground loop noise?
