All depends really. Is this the only amp you have? Do you plan on upgrading? If it is the only amp and you do not plan on upgrading 8 gauge power and ground should be enough.

Yes I agree 8 Guage should do fine. Especially since that sony amp prolly wont put out what its rated for but will still do a fairly large number dont get me wrong. I would say that 8 guage wire would be good for up to about 1000 watts rms on a class D amp, and about 600 watts class a/b amp.
