it the thickness of wiring the smaller the number the fatter the wire and the more amps it can handle
it normally say's what it is. it will be printed on it i.e 8AWG etc.

If your amp has mosfit on it,the amp when gets to hot cuts off to stop it blowing.also a bigger size battery helps if your light start to dim with the bass

if the amp cuts out because of this mosfit, what can i do about that? i played about with the settings on the amp yesterday, the bass was set to full. so i turned that to half, turned up the volume to when it cuts out, and it didnt. so i turned it up higher and then it cut out. but you know the settings on the head unit where you can change where the sound comes from, front or rear? i changed it to -2 rear and the amp doesnt cut out until you turn it stupidly loud now. so problem solved i think
Hi mate your right with changing the settings i had the same problem with my first amp,it was only a small amp and i was asking to much of it when i wanted loud bass.the only answer was to get a bigger amp for the sub and it works fine.i used the small amp to run my 6x9s and it did ok never cut out so problem was sorted hope this helpsOriginally Posted by NovaBoi92

i work for maplin and wire is good quality and cheap. would reccommend. i would also suggest you go for 4awg which is pretty thick stuff.
