You can hook a 18 gauge wire to your system or a 00 gauge the voltage will be the same, but the 18 gauge wire will melt with anything more than a couple of amps applied to it and the oo will laugh at you. Google "ohm's law' and learn something about electricity before you waste your hard earned money. Really!

f you're ADAMANT you need bigger cables/wires just run a cable/ wire slightly smaller that what is already there, in parallel to the existing. Electrically it accompishes everything you think bigger cables will.

Unless, of course, you're after more bling than zing.

I'm done!
