Just a question on current drop when using 18g for amp to speakers. I've got two 2ch amps(80W & 75W0 which I will use for front and rear, is there an issue with using 18g wire from amps to xovers and then to speakers?I've been able to get about 300ft of it for free.

Since amplified output runs at a much higher voltage than pre-out voltage, 18 AWG is fine.
