I have a Ford E-250 conversion van that I am putting four new speakers in the back. I need a recommendation on speaker wire and gauge to use. The runs to the back are kind of long. I have heard everything from using audison sonos wire to using copper lamp cord lol. The amp is a Memphis 16-mch1300 that will power Focal K2 6.5 165KR components in front, Focal K2 5.25 130KRC in back, and a JL Audio 12W6V2 sub. The sub is already installed. Just need good wire for four for the Focals and best gauge. OFC instaler wants to use Audison, but am not spending $5 a foot.

Thanks

I agree with every one above. OFC is much better. Copper is a much better conductor than aluminum.
