    I bought it for wiring up a deck for sound. The electrician seemed impressed with it, so theres that. The staples didnt break the wires and it was very flexible. There were no breaks in any of the stretches. Monoprice seems to have a sizable chunk of their offerings on sale at any time, so it was priced lower than the comptition. If you can get it on sale, it is afforable and works great for in wall cabling.

    There is not much more I can say. It is a nice wire that does a great job. I will be buying more if I need it.

    For about $100 I pre-wired our new houses media room for 7-speaker audio with 12AWG wire. Cant beat that value!

    This is a quality cable. 12 gauge is perfect for a excellent for my 5.1.4 speaker layout. Cables are fished through the walls for a clean look and this is what the cable is rated for. Remember this is a THICK cable so when routing take that into consideration.

    Great for running in walls to binding posts. Nice and heavy for carrying over long distances.

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.
