Any guage wire will work for you, thicker doesn't make it better.

even 22 gauge?:p
it may not matter in sound quality differences, but the amount of power the subs will recieve sure will! for the most part..i would take 14 gauge.

LOL! I used 10 gauge for my Subwoofer wire! I guess I did not really need that thick of a wire!

Same here. I used 10 gauge wire inside my self fabricated prebuilt box for my sub, so connect the sub to the spring terminal contacts on the back of the box, then used 10 gauge wire to connect between my amp and the spring terminals on my box. I figured can't go wrong with thicker wire. :)
