Answer 1

You may be able to marginally hear some difference in the performance of the sub. Using technical equipment you could measure the difference but it will be difficult to truly hear it.

The larger power wire will ensure more power can get to the amp and sub. A better wire will ensure better connectivity and less loss of power. That is about all it can do

You still would need to upgrade your signal wire (RCAs) if you really want to hear a difference and again it would be minimal.

Answer 2

YES, you will hear a noticeable difference

and the quality of the RCA cables in correlation to sound quality or volume is negotiable (not worth the money for high quality RCAs, it only makes a major difference in home theater setups, not car audio- especially for subs)
