I'm about to upgrade my subwoofer wire to 8 ga. from 14 ga. I think I know its real real small, but anyway when upgrading so I need to run the 8 ga. to connect the voicecoils also? I know I have to run the wire from the subs to amp but not sure about the voicecoils

Yes , try upgrading that wire too, i don´t know how much of a difference you would get to your ears, maybe it will sound the same, on the meter it would help you out a few tenths if you decide to compete sometime :)

yes it would be best to upgrade all of the wires to the same size. also if your going to compete, you will get a few tenths if you connect dual voice coils in parallel and then speakers in parallel instead of the other way around.
