RE: Is 16 gauge speaker wite ok to use with my Merlin TSMBME

"I find the heavier gauge to give much better bass performance"

After going from 2 runs of 18awg (Mapleshade Golden Helix) to 2 runs of 12awg (JW Audio Cryo Nova), I found to my surprise that the midrange is what improved the most. By improve, I'd say my soundstage has increased in size in each dimension, creating more space for sounds to develop more/better. That's not to say bass didn't improve, but not like I would have thought.
