There is no reason why the speakers as such "require" a certain gauge of wire. The cross section of wire is basically dependant on the current to be conducted and therefore the peak power/watts/volume involved.
Wire sold as high performance, is a con. The cross section and current carrying capacity is the only factor to be considered. It is extremely unlikely that the existing wires could have corroded or become frayed to the extent that overall resistance could be increased to any marked affect.
Unless you are subject to placebo, I would warrant that the existing wires will be completely adequate.
