Also, need to get a amp wiring kit, will the 8ga kit be suffice for the B52 or should I go with a 4ga or 6ga? Cant wait to get this stuff installed. Thanks again everyone for the advice. I know I have asked a lot of redundant questions but I like to have full knowledge of what I am buying before I take the leap. Cheers!
Dude go to eBay. Look up the motos 602, there's a guy that sells them for 270.00. I've ordered stuff from him before and he warranties all his sales. He's legit and has the best prices on anything I've asked him for.

Edit. Just looked and he doesn't have any listed. Let me dig up his email and I'll PM u.

Haze, been looking at his items. All he has are the mpak kits at the moment. I sent him a message asking if he had just the 602's but haven't heard back from him yet. I sure hope he has some. Would much rather pay 270 vs 380 from arc. Thanks!

I found some 602's from Phat Performance for a really good price, almost seems too good to be true @ $208. Anybody bought them from Phat in the past? Are they legit? The pics on the site looked like the real thing but some of the specs listed didn't match with the Arc website.

Someone recent purchased the comps 62 version from there. I'd call.

I think Arc has regular 602 not the motos, maybe they have those specs listed.

Ok last question. Is 8 gauge enough for the B52 or should I go with 4 gauge?

Got the Sony HU and B52 amp installed, just waiting for the 602's to arrive. The install has been a breeze so far. But have a quick question. The amp came with a bass boost controller. Do I need to use that for anything? Or just leave it in the box?
