toast .. I have 2 pieces of breadboard I could use, but isn't just soldering the leads to each end of the coil equivalent? And is it ok for them to be sitting in open air as long as they don't come in contact with ground/power leads?
I have everything I need except speaker wire and RCA lines. I'm leaning towards 12 AWG for speakers and Stinger 4000 series rca. Reading up on this stuff, I'm trying to decide if buying the oxygen free copper is worth the extra $20-$40 in total. I've read it's a much better conductor and would produce less resistance. I need to check my power lines too to make sure it's not the bad stuff and maybe replace it with OFC if so. Is this a sales scheme for the car audio market or is it legit? I watched a video that showed an amp putting out 300 less watts using the crap stuff vs OFC.
