Description

16 Gauge

Direct Burial Audio Cable

This 16 gauge speaker wire is composed of 2 or 4 bare copper conductors composed of 65 strands of copper per conductor. It has a black PVC outer jacket and 16 gauge conductors. This speaker wire is ideal for providing high-quality digital audio signals from audio components to a receiver or amplifier. It is supplied in a wooden spool of 500 feet.

14 Gauge

Direct Burial Audio Cable

Our 14 gauge speaker wire is composed of 2 or 4 bare copper conductors composed of 105 strands of copper per conductor. This 14 gauge speaker wire is ideal for speakers, low voltage lighting and many other applications. Our 14 AWG speaker wire is also ETL-listed. 14 gauge speaker wire provides high-quality digital audio signals from audio components to a receiver or amplifier. It is supplied in a wooden spool of 500 feet.

Choosing The Right Gauge

Gauge, the thickness of the wire, matters significantly when installing cable that stretches across a long range in your residential home or commercial property. Generally, higher gauge wire will create more resistance for the audio signal because the signal has a narrower path to travel. The more resistance a digital audio signal encounters, the more the signal will degrade, leading to poorer audio quality. To solve this, purchasing and installing the appropriate wire will ensure high-quality digital audio delivered throughout your property. The chart below shows the recommended lengths based on the impedance of the electrical device you are connecting.

Recommended Length/Gauge Ratio

Gauge/Speaker	4 Ohms	6 Ohms	8 Ohms
18 Gauge	16ft	24ft	32ft
16 Gauge	24ft	36ft	48ft
14 Gauge	40ft	60ft	80ft
12 Gauge	60ft	90ft	120ft

Gel Filled

PetroleumBased Waterproofing Solution

Gel-filled direct burial cabling is a great solution to your entertainment installation if you want to make sure the cables you purchase last through years of seasonal weather changes, moisture, pests, and short-term temperature shifts. Should cracks or gashes develop on the cable's outer jacket, the gel can seal them up, providing a barrier of protection between the environment and the copper wiring.

Tape Shielding

Multiple Layer Based Waterproofing Solution

Utilizing multiple layers of dry waterproof tape to ensure a substantial level of waterproofing. Each individual is wrapped in PET with a layer of Mylar shielding wrapped around the entire bundle. These layers protect and shield the audio cables from weather conditions similar to the gel-filled cable solutions.

2 Conductor

Two-conductor speaker wire is effective when wiring a single wall speaker powered by a single amplifier. A wire with more conductors does not equate to better sound; each is designed for purposes unrelated to sound quality.

4 Conductor

Designed for bi-amping, which involves using two amplifiers for a single wall speaker, a four-conductor speaker wire has a higher power threshold compared to a two-conductor speaker wire.

Banana Connectors

Banana plugs make wall speaker installations a breeze. They are designed for use with amplifiers or wall speakers that use traditional binding posts. Banana plugs make it much easier to plug into your receiver or speakers system and they prevent the wires from being exposed, which reduces the risk of wear and tear, preventing loss of sound quality.

Pin Connectors

Spade connectors are almost exclusively used with binding posts. They provide the same features as the former two connectors but allow for an external connection to the speaker system or amplifier.

Spade Connectors

Pin connectors work with spring-loaded terminals (also known as spring clips), but they can also work with binding posts that have a hole in the side of the inner connector. This connector also reduces wear and tear on the end of the speaker wires, thus preventing loss of sound quality.
