Should I run 14 gauge speaker wire to my diamond HEX S600s's. It's really hard to find and I'd have to order it off ebay but it might be such sh!tty wire that its basically 16 gauge. Im running the wire from my trunk (xovers in trunk) all the way to the front doors. An ED NINE4 should be givin them about 170 rms when the car is on and I don't wanna be choking my HEXs. SHould I use 14 gauge or just go the easier route and buy the 16 bc i can buy it around here. I won't be doin the install for like 2 weeks so I don't mind waiting.....

14 gauge will be good and it is easy to find. Radio Shack has it, Home Depot carries Carol wire which is good stuff, even Walmart has decent speaker wire:
