[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 1764518, member: 561023"] It will be entirely dependant on the actual output of his amp. If it is 3 or 400 watts then 10awg should actually be sufficient. ( I wouldn't imagine that it is, though, if he's trying to successfully drive a pair of L7s with it...) There's never anything wrong with overkill as far as wiring goes, however, and if you've already got a run of 1/0awg cable run then you have plenty of room for expansion later. It boils down to do you want to go through the trouble of running it now or later (since we all know how contagious this audio addiction is so there [B][I]will[/I][/B] be a desire to upgrade later....)
