Q: What's gauge do I need for 400 watt car speakers
A: 400W RMS or 400W Peak? 400W RMS would be more for a subwoofer and you should run 12AWG wire for those. 400W Peak which will be about 100-150W RMS (continuous and what really matters, peak is an advertising gimmick and means absolutely nothing), you’ll be perfectly fine with 16AWG copper wire. Make SURE you are getting COPPER wire because there is a PLETHORA of cheap CCA (Copper Clad Aluminum) wire on the market today and there are no disclaimers or warnings on the packages. CCA can only flow about 20% of what copper can for the same gauge! Also be careful of the terminology “AWG” and “Gauge” or “Ga”. AWG is what you want. Gauge/Ga is a junk Chinese standard. This wire is AWG even though the packaging states “Gauge” but that’s because quality companies haven’t caught up with the fact that cheap companies are cheating with sub-par standards!
