Question power wire size

when i first started the system in my truck i ran 4awg wire to power 500/1, i didnt think i was gonna add more to the system,stupid that never happens..... well now i am adding a 300/4 jl to the system. the book says more than one amp run 2awg, other people said it wont matter leave the 4awg. what do u stereo gurus think, so im not sure what to do about the main line, increased or leave it. in reality does it actually matter?

2AWG is the minimum.
