Excellent idea!
Don't forget guys that wire size is not like pipe size for water. Lemme explain. If you want more water to flow you'd get a larger pipe. However this is not true in electricity. Electrons flow on the surface of wires not within the wires. This is why multiple strands of oxygen free and tinned wires make sense in audio especially harsh environments like car audio.
You'd probably never hear the difference between Radio Shack 16ga and Rockford 16ga (or any other reputable brand), but you might see a difference months later when it turns black from oxidation.
Black wires = oxydation=less current carrying capability.
Just to resume . . . oxygen free and tinned makes sense!
This is what we call a sound decision! (Sorry, couldn't help myself.)
Prepare your future. It wasn't the lack of stones that killed the stone age.

but do you honestly think that there will be a noticable difference after it has oxidized??...  my neighbors ben running regular wire from like radioshack for almost two years with no difference in sound...perhaps going with a larger wire would sound the same as the tinned wire of smaller size but i really dont think there could be a noticable difference
