Review on Voltive 12/2 Speaker Wire: Enhanced Audio Performance with UL Listed In-Wall and Outdoor/In Ground Rating - 100 Foot Spool, White by Anthony Cayton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for my purpose (not used as speaker wire)

My house has white eaves and trim and my lover wanted lighting in said under loft spaces. The low voltage landscape lighting for sale appears to be black throughout, which contrasts like, well, black on white. After several days of unsuccessful searching for 12 AWG white landscape cable, I stumbled across this one and decided to go for it. It's rated for direct penetration, which led me to believe it would work well outside in shady, rain-protected eaves. I've installed entire home stereo systems in the past and this speaker wire seems to be of good enough quality for the purpose. Again, I can't say anything, I didn't use it for that. As for the low-voltage white landscape lighting wire, it was a little painful to strip compared to the "normal" landscape lighting wire, but the conductivity is great; I have 3 runs in the 50-200ft range and the lights show no difference in brightness (read: no voltage drop) on any of the runs. My multitester confirms this.
