[QUOTE="Mills561, post: 7875124, member: 621946"] Installing a set of components and small amp to power them. The amp is about 200 watts total (~50 watts x 4 ch). Currently half way through the set up but need a power wire. I used 4 gauge for the ground wire. Wondering if there would be any adverse effects of using different size wire for the power and ground? For example- 4 awg for ground wire and 8 awg for the power. Money is an issue... I am a broke college student so I try to save money in anyway possible. Thanks for any replies. [/QUOTE]
