I'm trying to run an 8 gauge wire from the inside of my box to the outside. But i can't fine any Speaker Terminal Cups that will do anything larger then 12ga.

Would it be ok for my to drill a whole in the wooden part of the enclosure (the enclosure is made of wood and fiberglass) that is just big enough for the pos and neg wires to run through and then fill in the extra space with some kind of glue or caulking?

IDK if you need to know this but its an Alpine Type-R SWR-1221 wired at 4ohms - powered by a RF 360.2 wired at 4ohms

Ya drill a hole just big enough to fit the wire then caulk it.
