[QUOTE="x2o, post: 5609402, member: 582175"] Plenty of people use 8gauge for speaker wire. Mainly when dealing with huge amounts of power, for the amp you can probably use like 14-18gauge without a problem.. But no, there's no negative to using 8gauge for speaker wire besides cost, and aesthetics if it bothers you. Reason the amp is heating up is, well, it's an xplode. Just make sure your running it at a stable ohm load and you'll be okay. [/QUOTE]
