4ga wiring and 4ga terminals Options

[Stogbob]

Looked around a little bit, couldn't find anything. Just a simple question, is it alright if I use 4 gauge terminals with 4 gauge wiring? I know it sounds like a dumb question, but just to be safe should I buy higher gauge terminals to make sure I'm getting full power to my subs?

Thanks in advance!

it all comes down to how much power you are running and what brand of wire you are buying(because of strand count)

so tells us how much power how long of a run of wire, and someone can better tell you what ga wire to use

for anything over 1200 watts or 130 amps i would suggest 1/0ga wire andthing less and i would be fine with 4ga
