Go with 4 gauge / www.knukonceptz.com is your best bet price wise.

Yeah you can. It may cost more at retail price. Look for monster cable if your going to pay retail price.

You will need speaker wire to jump the voice coils on the sub and to wire it to the box and from the amp to the box etc. Get like 6ft of 14-16 gauge wire. Doest make a differance either way. Dont really need anything else for the box.

on the outside of the terminal is where you are connecting the speaker wires from the amplifier. then when you connect ur subs you connect the + and - from the inside of the terminals on the inside of the box.

and what do people put in the inside corners of their boxes, just like some kind of glue or caulk?
