i was thinking of running 8 guage wire to my subs, is there a special kind or is it just basic power wire? also i would need new terminals for my box, anyone know were to get some?
only if you're pushing like 2-3k watts through 16 gauge right now, and even then not too much gain will be noticedokay thanks. will i see any gains from running 8 guage?
okay thanks so its basically pointless for me then since im only putting out about 1500 hahaonly if you're pushing like 2-3k watts through 16 gauge right now, and even then not too much gain will be noticed
if you already have 12 gauge or bigger, I doubt it'll even be an audible difference by going any bigger, hell even if you had 16 gauge i doubt it'd be audibly louderokay thanks so its basically pointless for me then since im only putting out about 1500 haha
i want every little bit i can get haha 0 gauge would be badass mad props to anyone that uses that as speaker wire haha0 gauge speaker wire looks even more badass...
He's talking about speaker wire. Also, even with power wire, once the wire is big enough, going bigger has no effect.Bigger wire helps keep the amp cooler too due to reduced resistance. But in your case its not needed.
