.28AWG for all connections except power cables which must be .22 or .20AWG.

Also, you shouldn't need any resistors etc...Unless you plan to do PWM audio and build your own low pass filter. The low pass filter is optional, but you can look at this thread for the resistors and caps needed:

Also, if you want more input on your parts, post the list, anyone can look it over and give input.

I am preparing for my first build and I bought 22 and 24 AWG. Will this work or do I need to buy different gauge wire?

Of course it will work, the only issue you could have is having difficulties to close the case due to too thick wires...

Quick Question:
Is this a good soldering iron for something like this?

It looks better than what I have...It has a variable temperature which is great, and Weller is a good brand I believe, should be good!
