What gauge speaker wire?
I was wondering what gauge speaker wire I should use from my amp to the components?? The amps rms is 55watts p/ch, and will be powering Eclipse 6x9s and Alpine 6 1/2 Type R components. I'm thinking 12....

Thanks

16 is MORE than enuff for that. if you dont mind paying more, by all means, go for it, it certainly would not hurt [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
