CodyHendo Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 I will be wiring 8 dual 4 vvx 10s together for a 1 ohm load. that is not the issue, but what i am wondering is what size wire i should be running for this many subs. The setup will eventually be ran on 5-7k watts once i get my electrical up and an amp. So basically what size wire would: 1. Fit in the terminals of the vvxs 2. Properly supply power to the subs. Let me know y'all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CleanSierra Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 It's a 600W sub, 12 or 10 gauge is fine for those. Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fecupe2001 Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 8 ga is perfect, 12ga it´s more than enough, depends on your budget i guess, but you won´t hear any difference , maybe a couple of extra tenths on the meter if you care about that I´m the SPL Gains topic creator!! wanna get louder?? check this: SPL Gains.

CodyHendo Posted December 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 It's a 600W sub, 12 or 10 gauge is fine for those. only 12 throughout 8 of them? Shouldn't it be bigger if i am running 5k-6k? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
