Product Description
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 percent 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 68percent as conductive as pure bare copper. This additional resistance is added to the impedance of your speakers and can negatively affect the sound. For the wire to have no audible effect, the total wire resistance should be no more than 5 percent 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. Each conductor is jacketed with color-coded PVC for easy polarity identification. The entire cable assembly is jacketed in a black, 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.

Being 14 gauge is great as well, though you'll want to make sure you strip & twist the wires correctly as it's a very tight fit if you have spring loaded speaker connections, and they can be a little tight when connecting them to banana plugs. That said, the positive & negative color coding is great. I really can't say enough great things about this wire. It's extremely high quality and Monoprice hit it out of the park with pricing. If you're looking for great high quality speaker wire, Monoprice is the way to go. Don't be fooled by the "scary monsters" out there, with their extremely overpriced wires & cables... Monoprice will have you rockin & rollin with their amazing quality & pricing.

I am using Mediabridge Banana Plugs - Corrosion-Resistant 24K Gold-Plated Connectors - 12 Pair/24 Banana Plugs (Part# SPC-BP2-12 ) to connect everything together. I am getting great sound everywhere. I had this same Monoprice in-wall speaker wire in my old house, 16 gauge instead of 14 at the time, and it worked great for years there, too.
This speaker wire is a good value and the copper strands twist together without fraying. I purchased speaker wire from Belkin once that frayed all over the place when trying to twist the copper strands together tightly. This wire is a quality product.
