So is it gonna be a issue if I use the 12gauge and trim it to a 16 gauge ? Like I said I already have wire and I’m gonna use it because I’m not gonna spend more money buying more wire.

Canare Star Quad microphone cable is under $.50 a foot. Why put yourself through the brain damage to save a few dollars?

Belden, Mogami, or Canare microphone cable is best. Use whatever you can find the cheapest.
