For my 4 channel amp, I used a kit by Scoshe, which I got at Walmart. It comes with a power wire, ground wire, remote turn on, and a set of RCA's. Alls you need then is speaker wire.

Before you dog the Scoshe kit, check this out: from what I have read, the make/ quality of the RCA's in a wiring kit really make no difference... its more important that you wire your car correctly. Don't run your RCA's next to your power line, and you will not get any interference or alternator wine.

Because I was using a 4 channel amp and the kit only came with 1 set of RCA's, I had to buy another set. This was before I had researched, so I went to Circuit City and bought a $90 silver lined, super insulated Tsunami RCA cable. I wired it up to my front components, and it sounded good, and then I wired the Scoshe kit RCA's to see if there was any difference in quality: there was NONE. They sounded exactly the same.

So save yourself some money and check out the kit by Scoshe

just some good 12 gauge wire would be fine.
