    Having the 4 wires bundled makes for easy wall pulling thru small openings. Shipment arrived in great condition. Jobs done, music outside great...

    Perfect for Atmos installs due to having 4 wires available!

    Simple review: product is exactly what it says it is and seems to be of good quality. I would buy again if I need more.

    It did what we wanted it to do. Good value.

    Very heavy-duty with a jacket almost as rugged as Romex. Nice to have the length printed on the jacket at 1-ft intervals.

    Ran about 75 for speaker wires. Did a good job.

    Im using this to extend the wiring on some Christmas pixel strings. Works great. I know it isnt rated for outside installation, but who cares. Low voltage, plenty of insulation, easy to position. Just what I wanted.

    This is some really darn nice cable. Ive been installing home theater and AV systems for a few years now and had until now been using 100 to 200 spools of standard speaker cable. Ya know the flat clear kind? It had always worked fine for me.

    El cable es excepcional el cobre es del hilos delgados muy manejable y de muy buena calidad, el forro es resistente a la instalación y su precio es bastante acorde al producto tal vez hasta mas vara que otros de menor calidad.

Get the most out of your home audio system with high quality, oxygen-free, pure bare copper speaker wire from monoprice!

this speaker wire features two conductors made of high purity (greater than 99.95% pure), oxygen-free bare copper. Pure bare copper is a superior conductor to the copper clad aluminum (CCA) conductors used in most other inexpensive speaker wire. Cca is only about 68% as conductive as pure bare copper. This additional resistance is added to the impedance of your speakers and can negatively effect The sound.

for the wire to have no audible effect, The total wire resistance should be no more than 5% of the lowest impedance of your speakers. Even speakers rated for a nominal 8-ohms, may dip to as low as 4-ohms at some frequencies, which further reduces the total cable resistance allowed in the wire. Using pure bare copper speaker wire ensures that the total load put on the amplifier remains as close as possible to the impedance curve of your speakers.

for example, a 16AWG 2-conductor pure bare copper speaker wire has a total resistance of 0.803 ohms per 100 feet (both directions must be considered). by comparison, a 16AWG 2-conductor CCA speaker wire has a total resistance of 1.181 ohms per 100 feet. Assuming 4 ohms is the lowest impedance of your speakers, a speaker wire run can be no more 0.2-Ohms total. 20 feet of 16AWG pure bare copper would be 0.1606 ohms, well under the 0.2-Ohm limit. On the other hand, 20 feet of 16AWG CCA would be 0.2362 ohms, well over the 0.2-Ohm limit.

each conductor is jacketed with color-coded PVC for easy polarity identification. The entire cable assembly is jacketed in a white, CL2-rated PVC material. The CL2 rating indicates that the cable complies with fire safety and insurance requirements, making it safe for use inside the walls of residential class buildings.
