Stinger all around definatly. It will be a little pricey, but definatly worth it. Stiner Dream Series RCA plugs are the shit!

I like Kunlonceptz for their Collossus Power wire, Karma speaker wire and Krystal Kables for RCA's.

Or you can have some custom made Canare Quad star RCA's made.

The AMP KING brand of power wire offered by Parts Express is good stuff, with a low price. High strand count. Very flexible. Worked fine in a 1800 watt install in my buddie's GMC 4x4 Sonoma extended cab.

Monster hands-down has the "best" cable, albeit it's ridiculously overpriced. That being said, I'd opt for KnuKonceptz. You're getting a great product at a very good price. Personally, I'd stay away from Rockford Fosgate, Stinger, etc... There's nothing wrong with it, but it's a matter of bang for the buck and quite frankly, you're not getting the same level of quality as KnuKonceptz without paying more.

Hope this helps. If you need links, just Google it.

not to bust anybody's bubble but the difference between one power wire and another power wire is almost negligable

As for RCA's anything that has good connections on the end and has Twisted and shielded wires is good

i had a set of monster cable's 100+ dollar RCA's and they sounded no different than a $20 set of speaker wire with RCA ends on it

ill put my inexpensive lightning audio twisted shielded RCA's against anybody's stinger or monster audio RCA's and you wouldnt be able to tell any difference at all...

does spending a lot on Cable make you warm and fuzzy?
cause thats all you get from spending 200 bucks on cable that you could get for 40

Read that.

And then reread what you just said.
