It's appearant your have no clue what your talking about, and your advice is flawed. Wire is wire, it doesn't matter what you use, and the gauge doesn't matter nearly as much as you'd think. Power and ground wire certainly need to be a certain size relative to the amperage being pulled, but the current passing through the speaker wire is ac, and the size of the wire doesn't make near the difference. You'll be fine with anything 20 gauge and lower. |

The quality of speaker wire will not effect the performance. Like I said before, wire is wire, there is no real big difference between a 10 dollar spool of 12 gauge and a 80 dollar spool of 12 gauge. |

Gold Member Username: InvainMichigan United States Post Number: 4061 Registered: Aug-04 | Wire will in no way effect the sound quality, and almost all wire is made of the same basic elements. As long as the gauge's are the same, there is little to no difference, besides the large corporate company trying to r@pe you by charging 50 bucks for "high end" speaker wire. |

Bronze Member Username: Bga44Post Number: 51 Registered: Nov-05 | he said he had nice wire, but now has thin wire, obviously gauge change. gauge change will effect it. speaker wire wouldnt effect the sound that much i agree wit u, but he said he went from nice to thin |

Silver Member Username: Iufan4lifeulPost Number: 745 Registered: May-05 | how "thin" is thin? That might be your problem. Sounds a lot more like you don't have the subs wired down to a low ohm like the must have been before. Check all of your wiring and make sure it is all wired correctly. |

Silver Member Username: PikeshToronto, ONtario Canada Post Number: 252 Registered: Jun-05 | well i had it parallel wired putting 2 ohms of load..( mono amp and 2 subs) the subs are SVC and 4ohms so yeah.. the wire is kinda sh!T becuz everytime i try to peel it off, the outside of wire stretches... its a bad wire... |
