subwoofer connection options

Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

i have a HT sub (one of three in my HT) connected to the right/left amp speaker taps and using a Speakon connection at the sub. The wire is pretty thin, it's the one that generally ships the subs that have this connection option. My question is: would there a sonic benefit to using bigger gauge, higher quality speaker cable from the amp taps to the speaker in connections on the sub? I've got either 10 or 12 gauge wire for this long run. And maybe this belongs in Cable Asylum.
