CaptainzPlanetz Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 i do. bigger wire = better voltage To an extent that is true, it wont really make a difference the distance he is running it(though it wouldnt hurt), now if his subs were 20 ft. from his amp then he would definitly need a larger guage wire. http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/amps-wire-gauge-d_730.html I dont know if you will understand this but it is just a simple basic chart of amperage pulled vs. Guage and Length of a Wire, I used to have a good chart in my Electrical ASE book, but that is in my tool box, and I dont want to go find it.
