I've used 4awg to 8awg aluminum reducers before. No scientific testing to prove it was the best alternative but it worked for a build I did a while back. Still running strong today. Try Knukonceptz, good gear affordable. Proly someone got a better solution. See what they say first

@WhiteLightning Damn you made me feel like i posted in the wrong section haha. 

@8ten8 so the terminal you need to fit two wires in, you use the reducer used on the power and ground on amps instead? Interesting

yeah, use something like this: https://xplicitaudio.com/shop/ill-customz-4ga-to-8ga-reducers/

fwiw i've had a great personal experience with ill customz stuff so far :)

The chances of most people exceeding the AC voltage/amperage limit of a 8 awg wire is highly unlikely so stepping down to a smaller size is fine.

If you must run 8 awg wire then do multiple runs from the terminal cup or amp so you dont have to make wire fit when your trying to daisy chain from 1 speaker terminal to another.
Like so then each coil has its own pair of wires:
