[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8874346, member: 689267"] Box rise, more accurately, impedance rise, is the reactive load changes the woofer exhibits at different frequencies and it will happen, it's normal and you cannot mitigate it so don't sweat it. Resistive load can be minimized with all the other stuff you are talking about such as adequate gauge wire, parallel grounding, etc. My subwoofer leads are 12 gauge and at 6ft, way overkill, 16 would probably be adequate for the 1590 watts they could potentially carry. Get the largest gauge the leads will accomodate. This 10 gauge OFC is a pretty decent buy and if the runs are less than 5 ft each, will cover it.

And as others have stated, only using it because I got it! [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009O4JN9C/?tag=caraudiocom-20[/URL] [/QUOTE]
