[QUOTE="Papermaker85, post: 8487089, member: 572595"] as an lisenced electrician ive done this alot. im not blowing anything out of proportion. you idoits refuse to look at the facts. in this situation if he was to run one 12ga per woofer fine its not that much power anyways but you have to know the facts. again im gonna do the math so we can find hte approiate wire for the application. 1600-RMS so on a contunious cycle @ 1 ohm that is 40 amps. lets say its 20 amps for impedance rise to 2 ohm. the piramary conductor should be 12ga. there is NO ARGUING with this. now the dynamic power is 2400. and i dont want no BULLSHIT arguing look at hte test that was done. the amp did 2400 ON MUSIC. thats 25 amps. again Id use 12 ga for the LOAD.. if you where to use 16 ga PER COIL that would be fine. but its really senseless to get some cheap small speaker wire wheb you could use the larger wire. your probably going to up grade in the future anyways.
