Speaker Wire to Tweeter

[ghawkes10 10+ year member]

Hi. I am going to install my component speakers today. What size wire should I use from the crossover to the tweeters. Comp set is Boston Acoustics RC-620 receiving 120 rms from Alpine MRV-F450 with gains set low. Thanks in advance.

anything bigger than 22 gauge.

Eh...I went a little overboard and installed 14 gauge from amp to c/o and 16 guage from c/o to tweeter and midrange but anything bigger than a 22 gauge wire should work as AneonRider said. Anything smaller than that and you might have some issues with the wires having too much resistance and losing power between the amp and components.
