With 4g...you have a lot of headroom. It will not hurt anything but your wallet. If you are going with 8g and decide to upgrade later, you might have to add another lay of wire to provide enough power. Thatll take more time and money. Do it right the first time.
4g. :hs:

this would be my reccomendation to you if you plan on adding. you should run the 4g wire back with a distribution block. from the d block run 8g out to your amp and when you upgrade just run another 8g wire to that one (d block should have 2 8g outputs). also run your 4 channel rcas along with your 2 channel ones at the same time that way it is done. DO NOT run your rcas down the same side as the power because it will cause crosstalk.

I don't think you can get phoenix gold wire @ wally world. further more 0awg is to much, why don't u run a bridge cable to it, oops thats right it not plyable.
