will this make me more power

I have a alpine 12 sub and a sony xplod 600 watt amp. My problem is it works awesome for my first install, I am 15 and want it to be a little more annoying to the older people lol , So if i increased the amp power wire from 10 guage to 6 guage would it hit harder. It may be a stupid question.

Re: will this make me more power

The 10g wire is a bit light for an amp but going to the larger wire will just prevent a meltdown, it won't make your amp more powerful.

That amp is a bit light for a 12" sub. I have one of those bridged to drive a 10" sub in my yota and it is just barely up to the task. I think that amp puts out about 35w rms when bridged.
