I've never heard the dB idea, and it sounds ridiculous, but 12g would be a great choice. The extra cost is minimal so heavy up and don't worry about it.CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.
