I've done plenty of installs with shitty RCAs and been fine. Just make sure your power cables are big enough. Bigger is always better. I've installed a lot of 100-200 watt amps with 4awg wire.

What's the use in using oversized power wires? for 100-200 watts especially given how short our cars are, 4awg sounds ridiculous.
