Power cable ?

I'm not too familiar with the building wire; but I'm fairly sure the strands in that wire are much thicker than the car audio wire. The hosehold wire is designed to carry AC current which I beleive travels more on the inside of the wire; whereas DC travels on the surface. Thus, smaller strands=more surface area somebody correct me if I'm wrong; I'd like to knowLife moves pretty fast; if you don't stop and look around once in a while; you could miss it.

You are wrong. AC travels on the surface, DC uses the whole wire. It's called "Skin effect" Look it up. (Not trying to sound smart mouthed about that either, just trying to give you a starting point.) That being said, 60Hz skin effect is STILL so deep (at 8.5mm) , that it really won't matter WHAT size wire you use in a house - it still uses the whole wire. The bad part about using household (building) wire, is the flexibility. It is not as flexible as wire designed for use in the car, and tends to have a higher failure rate.It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."
