[QUOTE="jasonbillnelson, post: 8164523, member: 645368"] You don't need to replace it with 4ga. You can....but don't need to. I run 8ga to my 15" Threatcon 2 but thats just because I had it available to me. I'm only running 1k. The larger wire can carry more current/volts/watts to the subwoofer. If i was running 1500 watts I wouldn't use anything smaller than 12 ga and that would be in a pinch. I'm running 1k watts and 8ga speaker wire but I have 8ga readily available so i figured why not. So if you do change the wire out...go to at a minimum 12ga. If you have it available 8ga will be plenty. [/QUOTE]
