What gauge speaker wire is recommended from the amp to the sub. the amp puts out 400rms at 1ohm and the sub is a jl 12w3 D2. Thanks for any replys.

I ran 18 gauge, works fine for me. I have 2 subs that are being run at 400rms apeice. Hope that helps.

anything between 12-20 gauge wire should do fine.

I personally wouldn't use anything less than 10 gauge. Otherwise you're running the risk of having it short and light you car on fire from the inside.
