Larger wires are better, but don't think it's going to drastically beef up your sound quality.

Think of it as upgrading your intake or exhaust. It helps, but it's not a real dramatic increase.

This of course hinges on just what you have in your system. The bigger the build, the bigger the improvements will be.

All my charging and ground wires were upgraded to 1/0 and the wire to my amps is 2/0 so I guess I am good.

It all depends on the size amp that you have. The bigger the amp the bigger the wire required. Some amps get away with 6awg and some require larger 4awg or 2awg or whatever. If your wire is correctly sized already there will be no difference. Bigger is better, to a point then you are just wasting money and making it more of a PITA to route the wire. Check the fuse rating on your amp and that will tell you what size cable to use

8awg-60amp
4awg-100amp
1/0- 150amp
