West How big of wire do i need?

My setup consists of:
-Kicker 06VS10L74(sub)
Single 10" Solo-Baric L7 Loaded in a Vented Enclosure(750-800 WRMS@4- ohms)
-Kicker 06ZX750.1(amp)
750W Class D Mono Amplifier(750< WRMS@2ohms)
Should i go with 4 or 8 gauge power wire?

The bigger the better. Do the 4 gauge, or even bigger in case you ever upgrade your amp.

you should go with 4awg power and ground wire
anything larger and you will need distrobution blocks to downsize the wire just before the amplifier
