Question
What gauge of power wire do I need to use for a 300W/220Vibe amp and 2 10 in. sub of 300W total?
I have a 4 gauge power wire running through but do I need a smaller gauge for example a 12 gauge?

Nissan Maxima 1989

Answer
Hello Marinda,
You can never have too large of a battery supply wire/cable. If you already have the larger wire why not use it. You might need to connect the wire to a terminal post and then insert a smaller wire that fits snuggly into the terminal block on the amp and then connect it to the terminal post.
