[QUOTE="SicAudio, post: 5871907, member: 609136"] welding wire (if you get good quality wire) will work as well or better than standard audio power cable and most times costs alot less. aluminum wire ratings are lower ampacity compared to the same guage copper wire but it does not get as hot as fast either. almost all new construction in homes ect have stranded aluminum transformer runs to the main breaker panel then solid copper from there. As a car audio wholesaler, if I didnt get wire so cheap I would only use welding wire in my personal installs, my brother is a welder and I have seen how many volts and amps that, that wire carries over very long distances. far more than most car audio applications.
