With 10 AWG wire on a 15 ft run with a 400W RMS amp, you are loosing up to 1V or more according to the voltage loss calculator from

Per their site, you should use nothing smaller than 6 AWG for the amount of power you have assuming a 15 ft wire.
Using smaller wires than you need can cause the wire to heat up and is a potential fire hazard because it can melt the insulation.
Here is some more information and calculators you can play with:
