uhoh_45 Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 i'll be redoing my doors soon and i always need wire for something so i was wondering is this wire any good its cheap so im guessing it might not be exactly 16 gauge? here R.I.P!

Ram Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 16 guage is really thin. I rarely use that for anything. I use 12-14 guage for my interiors, and 8-10 guage for my subs. YES, 8 guage for the subs. You have to think 1000ft for just 45 bucks? Ive bought 13guage for about $170 for 320feet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uhoh_45 Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 i was thinking 16 gauge is little small and yes i know i use 6 gauge speaker wire and i'll look into 500 feet 12 gauge and yeah i need 80+ feet for my interior and what not R.I.P!

Ram Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Yea, thats precicesly why I bought bulk. It works out cheaper. 16guage isnt really worthwhile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kentb Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 depends on how many watts and how long you will be running that wire.
