Speaker wire gauge - zzattack - 7:th-May-2017 Wondering if anybody knows the wire gauge going to the door speakers. I'm assumings it's equivalent among astra/insignia since basically the whole cd400/dvd800 seems identical. If it's 20awg or thicker I suppose there's very little point in running new wires from the amp vs extending them from behind the headunit and then to the amp. RE: Speaker wire gauge - vocky - 8:th-May-2017 it certainly will not be more than 20AWG (0.8mm), car makers tend to use the smallest wires they can get away with RE: Speaker wire gauge - Rusty2009 - 8:th-May-2017 Vauxhall use 1.0mm on the infinity setup up-to the doors then drop to 0.75mm inside the door to the speakers RE: Speaker wire gauge - zzattack - 8:th-May-2017 Not too bad. Will have to give it some more thought as to whether that suffices for my 80W RMS Focal's. RE: Speaker wire gauge - zzattack - 8:th-May-2017 Looks like it's a no-go, rears would cover over 20ft so I better wire them myself. |
