The issue is not fundamentally wire gauge (of the voice coil) but resistance. The resistance of the voice coil is part of the calculation of the DF along with the resistance of the speaker cable and of course gauge effects resistance. Here is wikipedia's explanation. It might be of interest to see Tre's calculation. Wonder where Tre is??
