About this item

  • Home Audio and More: Our bulk spool of 16AWG speaker wire is perfect for your in-wall installations. The 65 Strand 0.16mm conductors provide exceptional performance for speaker and audio connections, as well as low voltage applications such as LED lighting, security systems, motion detectors, and other devices connected to a central control panel.
  • Protective Jacket: These low voltage wires are wrapped in an insulating white jacket that enhances flexibility so you can conquer those tricky corners. The durable yet malleable jacket features a convenient rip cord for easy stripping, and is NEC (National Electrical Code) CL2 rated to ensure the safety of your home or office.
  • Reliable CCA Conductors: Our CCA wires offer premium signal frequency and lasting corrosion resistance that you can count on. When it comes to flexibility, weight, and affordability, choosing our CCA cables is a no-brainer.
  • Installation Made Easy: These speaker wires feature our lightweight and pliable CCA (Copper Clad Aluminum) conductors wrapped in an insulating and flexible CL2-rated white shielding jacket for easy maneuverability. Plus, the bulk cable comes in our standard Easy Pull Box with sequential markings every two feet so you know exactly how much wire is left.
  • Your Source for Speaker Cables: Cables Direct Online is an industry leader in speaker wires. Whether you’re a DIYer designing a backyard paradise for your family, or a licensed electrician wiring a new building, our speaker cables are designed to tackle the task at hand.

I use this wire for low-voltage LED strip lights. 12 V and 24v. It works fantastic! It’s the only wire I’ll use.

I've heard all the rumors about CCA being far inferior to "oxygen free copper", so I decided to try this stuff out and see just how bad it was.16/2 gauge, 250ft = 2.4 ohms (measured using a NIST traceable DMM with milli-Ohm precision)-> this translates to 0.0048 ohms per foot (single conductor)16/2 gauge Oxygen free copper = 0.004 ohms per foot (single conductor)So CCA is definitely high resistance, but only 20% higher. What does this mean in terms of power dissipation?10ft run = 0.096ohm CCA, 0.08ohm OFC-CCA 4/6/8 Ohm speaker % loss: 2.4% / 1.6% / 1.2%-OFC 4/6/8 Ohm speaker % loss: 2% / 1.3% / 1.0%25ft run = 0.24 ohm CCA, 0.2ohm OFC-CCA 4/6/8 Ohm speaker % loss: 6% / 4% / 3%-OFC 4/6/8 Ohm speaker % loss: 5% / 3.33% / 2.5%50ft run = 0.48 ohm CCA, 0.4ohm OFC-CCA 4/6/8 Ohm speaker % loss: 12% / 8% / 6%-OFC 4/6/8 Ohm speaker % loss: 10% / 6.6% / 5%So for >25ft cable runs you start getting significant losses (the lost power is dissipated as heat), but then it's probably time to go down a gauge or add more conductors. Event at a 12%/10% loss driving 200W into a speaker, that's 24W / 20W (CCA/OFC) worth of heat which is easy to dissipate along a 50ft run.OFC just isn't worth the extra fraction of a percent in power savings.Note: I also look at high frequency characteristics of CCA using a network analyzer (sorry, not NIST traceable so I don't fully trust it). It looks fine up ~20kHz which is beyond where I can hear. At >100kHz it's almost the same, but that's due to the skin effect.

After giving up on a Denon wireless speaker, I resigned myself to running speaker wire to two rooms. When doing this in the past I bought regular clear jacketed speaker wire, so for stereo audio that meant two separate wire pairs to each room. As other reviewers have said, the 14 gauge wire in this product seems smaller than the typical 14 gauge speaker wire; but the audio quality is fine so I guess it's OK. This cable is fairly flexible, not much less so than ordinary 14/2 speaker wire. And it's a pleasure to work with--it did have to go 60 feet in two directions "over, under, sideways, down" to get where it needed to go--with less of the pull resistance standard speaker wire usually has. A very good buy when you need a lot of wire.

Used this speaker wire to run my 7.4.6 and I can't be any happier. Very easy to work with and is in-wall rated. Inexpensive route for the avid DIYer!!!

I’ve been using this for under cabinet lighting it’s perfect and fits into channels haven’t had any issues with them.

Con este cable no se requiere usar canaletas, el mismo cable da un aspecto muy agradable a la vista. La transmisión del sonido es excelente, aún cuando las bocinas no esté muy cerca de la fuente emisora del sonido. En lo personal me agrada su funcionamiento, además como trae cuatro cables internos es muy práctico conectar dos bocinas con diferetes distancias sin necesidad de usar dos cables diferente.
