[QUOTE="Konstantin, post: 5017599, member: 573257"] I got yet another dump question: can I mix 2 different speaker wire gauge sizes? This is because I am wiring everything with 16awg speaker cable, but the rear speakers that I bought have wires soldered directly to the crossover and I dont want to touch that, and I am not sure what gauge they are (LOOKS like 16awg, but could be 18awg as well, or maybe 14). Can I just connect a 16 -> 18, or 16 -> 14 and similar? Or is it a bad idea? RMS per channel would be max 200, 250 at most. And another question I have about the fans: I am going to build a fake floor box kinda thing to house the 3 amps and 4 crossovers, plus the distro blocks and the relay, and I was planning on adding 6 fans, 3 ******* in and 3 ******* out (overkill maybe, but the cooler the inside of the box the better), and I will be putting the subwoofer box on top of it. Will it affect the fans? Maybe the magnetic field caused by the sub's magnet will cause harm, or the constant fierce vibrations will screm them up? [/QUOTE]
