The connectors you use and how you install them will make a bigger difference than whether or not you are using "audiophile" wire.

Edit: The "marine" wire you mention usually has very rugged insulation. Not a bad idea for automotive use but a little overkill. The "audiophile" wiring is snake oil - any difference that they might make (extremely little in the best of circumstances) will be drowned out by road noise.
Not exactly man you should look into quality research a bit.

OP as long as your ground wire is the same gauge/kind as your power wire you will be fine. Just don't run a 4 gauge wire to your amp and a 8 gauge ground. I recommend knu for your power wire.
