The shorter the run, the smaller gauge you can use with minimum power and damping factor loss. The longer the run, the heavier gauge you will need to minimize power and damping factor loss. You will also want to consider the size of power amplifier you are using.

My amp has only one 8-Ohm output and my second speaker is wired for 4-Ohms. What do I do?

Tonebone Cabbone speaker cabinet switcher - Frequently Asked...
As detailed in 'Using the Cabbone' on this web site, in situations like this, you have to make decisions based on manufacturer specifications and your desired tone. If your amp manufacturer does not recommend connecting speakers below 8-Ohms you will have to change your speaker cabinet to accommodate this. It is always best to consult your Tonebone dealer as he can help you set up your system for optimum performance. Try changing the 'switch mode' on the Cabbone from momentary to latching.
