tacomabanga1986 Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 ya, and car audio wire is rated at voltage to, u can run 600v threw 4guage i think, n i use 8awg mobile engineering inc. 8awg "torsion balanced" hyper stream speaker wire i get from local shop, n works fine, but i dont see why you guys dont get a reducer to step 4awg down to 8 at the amp, n then run it to some dist blocks or somethin n run 8guage into each sub post instead of tryin to put 2 sets of 8guage into one terminal, n i used (sence i already had it inside the box from old setup) monster cable 12awg twisted speakerwire, n 8guage mobile engineering speakerwire from amp to subs, works fine for me, but would look cool if someone did there setup like steve did in the hoopty for multi sub setups, kinda like a buss bar setup for subs, run 4awg from amp from a 8awg reducer to buss bar, n then split it off to 8 awg or what knot might work better n help clean it up a lil to, n prolly easyer to wire up that u kno ur ohm loads just wire into buss bars how ever u see fit?
