So go for something a lil better then those. Sony makes a nice amp, as do Rockford Fosgate, and Hifonics.
And yes thicker guage wire does make a difference, i would run the thicker guage wire to help keep the voltage constant across the path of the wire, plus if you ever upgrade your stuff and go with a more powerful amp which needs the thicker wire, then you wont need to re-run the wires again.

When was this? How did you "test" your amp?
Also yes, I dont like to use power wire smaller then 8 guage ~ the bigger the wire the easier it will be for power to flow to your amp. Depending on how much the amp is I would say pick it up!
