[QUOTE="AnthonyO, post: 8854839, member: 563887"] Wrong again. Has nothing to do with the connection or connectors as you put it. It has to do with current or amperage. Most of the wiring from the factory is 16-18-20 gauge unless it’s higher amperage. Then they will up to 12-10-8-4 gauge. Most factory speaker wires in cars are 18-20 gauge. I run Crutchfield 9 wire speed wire 20 gauge for my speaker wire from the amp to the factory wire. But I am only running 50 watts per speaker. I run 12 gauge on my sub. [/QUOTE]
