WOW! I just installed an amp in my boat and then saw this video. I really hated the way the amps set screws damaged the wires. I had a defective amp and ended up removing and reinstalling many times and the wire kept getting damaged. I pulled the amp one more time and installed ferrules on all power and speaker wires. I never knew ferrules existed before this. Such a clean and professional look.. Thank you!!

Great video! Some folks in the comments recommended tinning the wires. DON'T DO THIS! That would be unnecessary and indeed a bad thing. A good crimp connection is gas tight (sometimes referred to as a "cold weld"). There's nothing to gain in using solder. Tinning the cable instead of crimping would also be bad practice. "the reason this is so is that the differing thermal expansion rates of copper and solder cause a problem. The solder in the tinned wire end expands more than the copper (brass) terminal and a big peg in small hole causes the softer metal to yield (it gets softer with increasing heat as well). When the temperature drops later the parts contract again but now the tinned wire end is smaller than it was and causes a bad connection." (Wire termination for screw terminals. (2014, December 29). RepRap)

Not if you twist the stranded hard and go heavy with the solder. Then file the end down to make a perfect hard cylinder with copper exposed from filing. I'm using number for so there is room for expansion inside the poor and the screw I tighten it every two weeks and it's embedded in the end. My way gives a direct contact between the wire and the brass port. For extra measure I wrap electric tape around the cable ends where they go into the ports

Well done for spreading the word about ferrules/boot lace crimps! I have been using them for years for electrical / electronic work . The one thing I will say is it didn't look like you had stripped the wire quite enough , the wire needs to reach the end of the ferrule as demonstrated on the first power cable otherwise when you screw down the terminal it only catches the ferrule and not the wire , after a couple of wiggle the end off the ferrule will break off!

Thanks for the excellent video! Love ferrules & am surprised that more folks in the US don't know about their uses & how essential they are. Have been using them recently on some projects including my outside AC condenser unit. In other countries, but not in the US, in 120V/220V applications, it is against code to connect stranded wire to screw lug terminals, as it will result in splaying of the strands resulting in a poor connection (wires mashed down & not all strands making a good connection). I installed a SureSwitch contactor to replace my standard contactor in my AC unit. It has screw lug terminals & I used ferrules to make the connections. Even though the connections were round, I still believe that there is better contact than using bare strands. As others have pointed out, there are crimpers that make a hex crimp instead of a square crimp to better fit in round terminals.

I still don't understand the concept of setting gains/EQ and finding distortion/clipping, but I'm just gonna have to sit down with some SMD tools and read the manuals I guess before starting my next build.

I have been recently watching a lot of videos on car audio, upgrading the factory sound in my 22' Telluride from the pretty unimpressive system it came with. This video was probably the best one to just make the install look cleaner. I ended up ordering the kit through the link and it is so much nicer having those little metal end caps crimped onto the wires than constantly re twisting the bare copper ends anytime I remove a wire to check something and have to get it back into the LOC or amp.!

I actually just did my first install and I used ferrules on all my wires 1/0, 4, 14, 16, and 18 awg. I had all insulated ferrules and I would slide on a heat shrink wrap then the ferrule then crimp the ferrule on the side closest to the insulation with pliers (either needle nose or a fatter grip for the big wires) then slide the heat shrink back up just over the insulation and heat it up for a tight fit. This gave a clean result for me and the wires didn't have any issues going into any of the holes.

Mark, I have to say, these ferrules are great! I tried them recently to install an extra battery for a friend and the cables look neat, coupled with a heat shield under the hood they look fantastic! Also, they hold on the strands so well it's hard to pull the strands out once they are crimped.

Thanks for suggesting the ferrules. They offer a professional look and give a low resistance connection. Also, there are ferrules that crimp the barrel, behind the contact that fits under the set screw. This style keeps the contact round, doesn't flatten it out. I don't know, however, if they are made for wire that size. You are definitely a pro!! Thanks!

Hey mark, I strongly recommend using a light around of copper antiseize on the bigger amplifier ferrules. Sometimes the connections can seize inside the bore after the set screw forces the O.D. Of the ferrule out and the copper will prevent that and promote conductivity.

I used "1/0 to 1/0 Input Reducers" in my install for all of my 0 gauge. They're similar, just slide the wire in, tighten down the allen screw and add heatshrink. I should get some ferrules for speaker sire, remote wire and such but I think they're more necessary on larger wires as they are usually harder to fit into amps as most don't have true 0 gauge inputs.

Even home audio can benefit from crimping ferrules to speaker wires for regular spring loaded hold down terminals. I try to get speakers with binder posts like my Polk bi-amp monitors, but my Yamaha surround and Dayton B652's have the spring loaded pin or ferrule connections. Ferrules would have helped along my set up, rather than waiting for my Nakamichi pin connectors to arrive. I will be using your source for cables. Some connections on amps can use spade connectors as well. old school installs always used spade, or ring terminals or soldered wire.

I think the tool would result in greater area of contact, which is one of the purposes of using a crimping tool.

Not sure if I missed if you covered this or maybe someone commented already but my first thought is wondering if the conductivity of Tin makes a difference here? Relatively small spot in the circuit but, this is infact a connection point.

Do ferrules work in the KnuKonceptz bassik 2 way fuse block? The 1/0 gauge input of them is flat and oval shaped not circular.

On my amp, I have to use lugs instead of ferrules, but I work at a place where all I do is run wires and crimp lugs all day, so I get it for free. Good knowledge and skills to have, though.
