Heavier wires do not necessarily mean better sound.
Typically, 18 or 16 guage wire is sufficient for home audio systems. If you are going to be running extremely long distances, say 100 feet or more, then increase the gauge size to like 14 or 12 to keep from losing too much audio signal.
In a car, 18 guage wire should be quite sufficient.
Gauge relates to the diameter of the wire.The larger the wire the more power it can deliver. A basic rule: 6 gauge=50 amps. 8 gauge=40 amps.10 gauge =30 amps. 12 gauge= 20 amps. 14 gauge= 15 amps.16 gauge= 13 amps. And so on. These rules are affected by wire lengh, and other factors.

The size of the wire is stated by its gauge under American Wire Gauge. Six gauge wire is size 6 AWG.
You listed no gauge wire. This is the required breakers.14 gauge - 15 amp12 gauge - 20 amp10 gauge - 30 amp8 gauge - 40 amp
No - the two have no relationship to each other at all.
The American Wire Gauge (AWG) is a shorthand way to identify key characteristics of the size of a wire and pertinent specifications associated with the size. So you will often hear someone ask what gauge wire do I need for a 15 Amp circuit in my home. The shorthand answer in this case would be 14 AWG for a typical residential wiring job.
The wire size depends on how much current it will conduct.

see American Wire Gauge. The larger the number the small the wire size.
Far as I know it's just size of wire, smaller the gauge the thicker the wire. which means the 4 is going to be thicker than the 8.
Wire size is the gauge (thickness of wire) hazard is almost anything not wired correctly.
The nearest wire size is #6 AWG which is .162023.
on a 4000 watt amp the best gauge wire woul be between 2 and 0
No, the higher gauge means a thinner wire.

#10 refers to the size in AWG (american wire gauge)
Size of bore, size of ammuntion
The size of the bore.
Yes. It is abbreviated as AWG. For example, in residential wiring the size wire to use on a 15 Amp circuit would be 14 gauge or 14 AWG.
