The connection block should be able to take 8AWG cable? If its too big for the connectors then you'll need to cut the copper down abit so it will fit in. 8AWG is overkill unless your chasing SPL or are running several thousand watts rms.

Ideally, the wiring inside the box should be the same size. But if you cant do that then dont worry too much, chances are you wont hear the difference.
