BTL15

BTL Wiring Size

Recommended Posts

I currently have a fi btl 15 fully loaded and i planed on using knu konceptz 8 gauge speaker wire but when i tried to wire the sub up the wires were too big haha...so is there anyway i can make the wires fit ive looked at banana clips and wire reducers but i dont know what to use and if it will distort or loose power

Cut some wire off or use smaller gauge. When I had 8 gauge in my SSDs, I had to cut quite a bit off to fit knu 8 gauge.

x2, smaller wire will work as well since you dont really need 8 gauge for subwoofers.

12 gauge works just fine, no need to break the terminal forcing so much wire in.

I would use 12awg for anything up to 1,500rms. 10awg for up to like 2,500. and 8awg up from there.

Since it seems that you already have the wire, just cut strands off.
