The big three ?

Alright, so I am not too familiar with the term but a friend of mine was telling me that it would be important to replace the big three. To my understanding these are the top three wires that you should replace. Does anyone have any experience replacing these wires and is it very difficult. I took a look at the alternator and it looks like it'd be a SOB to get to. Also, at what rms levels would you think it'd be necessary to replace. The current system I plan to run is 150 watts rms to the front speakers and 650 watts rms to the subwoofer. Later on I might run a T2 which eats up 1000 watts.

Also, I was thinking I would replace just the power wire from the alternator to the battery, and the ground wire for the battery. I can see why these would be important to replace, but why is replace the ground wire for the engine as important.

thanks in advanced
