8 gauge power and ground wires for your amp. amp kits do not include speaker wires. you can go pick them up cheap tho!

You dont need anything more than 16 gauge to High Frequency Speakers. Id use 12-14 gauge for Subs.

4 gauge for 1600W?!
That is awfully tiny.
I am putting in #1 or #0 for mine, and I am looking for a fuse holder.
I was hoping they would have an amp kit with big wiring cheaper than buying it by the foot.
