I think you want to revise the AWG of the speaker runs at 33 feet. 20 AWG will be VERY lossy, terrible !!!

I would use three, maybe even four runs of 12 AWG in parallel, to equal ( 3 is ) about 8 AWG, and ( 4 is ) about 6 AWG . Then, you will have proper PEAK current capability,, and great, really good transfer-efficiency !!

Reasonable-in-cost 12 AWG would be military surplus, copper stranded, and silver plated in a Teflon jacket, Apex Jr, etc has it, ask for Steve and tell him I sent you.
