[QUOTE="Helge A. Bentsen, post: 82574, member: 263"] Re: Fun with Damping Factor 200 ft is roughly 61m. According to my calculations, running a 4 ohm load requires a wire with a cross section area (square) of 7,6mm for that kind of cable length. That is roughly 8 awg. 14 awg is roughly 2mm square. I wouldn't use that kind of cable thickness for more than a 16 m run on a 4 ohm load :) [/QUOTE]
