I believe someone did a study and found no benefits for anything over 16ga. So anything huge is all for bling appeal

Takes your power or ground wire and distributes it from one wire to two.

I use 40 gauge wire for speaker wire...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbcool.gif.25d3f515a7f948dd6be51428263071ef.gif....the wire is as thick as this line: -

jk, the price difference between 16g and 12g is minimal, so i stick with 12g

thats the wire i thought i included in the last post but do you think thatll be good enough for a hifonics bxi2006d??

to subs? or regular speakers?

EDIT: nvm, i see the Brutus amp, thats a mono. so to ur subs...

25ft is more than enough.

that 2006 i think is 2000W RMS. get a 1/0 amp kit. no smaller
