Hi, I was wondering what gauge wire i should use to wire 2 Alpine Type R's. I dont want anything too big, but nothing too small. Also, when i wire the subs together, they are in separate compartments. It is ok to just drill through the middle of it? If so, where should I drill it at?

wont ever need more than 10ga. 14 or so should b fine. if they are in separate chambers then they should each hav their own terminal cups.

yea, but the subs have to be wired together, should i just loop a wire from one terminal cup to the other?

Also, does it matter the brand of speaker wire? Could i get some 12 gauge wire from walmart so i dont have to pay double the price and drive across town for circuit city's overpriced sh!t?
