Anyway what I haven't found is this: Has anyone considered replaceing the stock speaker wires? They are a very small gauge which with the seperate amps and low resistance speakers makes sense. Now we introduce at least twice if not 4 times the resistance (my bose speakers say and test out at 2 OHMS) with the same guage wire. Basic electronics, increased load/resistance increased wire size. Too small a wire creates more resistance=heat=equals more resistance.
Or maybe as usual I don't know enough and my "Gotta do it right perfectionism" is taking over. Anybody got input?

many have ran new wire for the speakers as a larger gauge is more efficient in sound reproduction. I did not, I used the stock skinny wires and it sounded fine to me.
