I need some help.

I have a punch 7005 that I plan on running two 10" Pioneer Premier subs with.

What would I run for power wire I would think 4 gauge but it only has big enough power hook up for 8gauge. Would 8 gauge be fine?

Also the subs I have are dual 2 ohm and can handle 350 watts rms, would I bridge the amp at 2ohms? I dont have any of the paper work for the amp since I bought it used but I know it will run bridged since I had it powering 2 twelves that I don't know the ohmage of.

On the back of the amp it says

175x2 rms at 4ohms

350x2 rms at 2ohms

a good quality 8ga would be fine but you may want to run 4ga for future upgrades...don't use both subs or you'll most likely fry the amp...I'd recomend one 12 step it to 4ohms and run it in a ported enclousure....That would be a nice setup //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Well I already have the box and it's custom made for two 10's I guess I'll just use my audiobling that I used before. Now i need to save up some more money for a better amp.

I would run 4 gauge to be safe and then use a distribution block to go from 4 gauge to 8 gauge.
