Review on πŸ”Š High-Quality Amazon Basics 16-Gauge Speaker Wire Cable, 100 Feet – Ultimate Sound Solution for Your Audio Setup by Jason Ampongan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good choice if you don't need 100% copper

It's not real copper, but doesn't claim to be. Considering that, it's actually a pretty decent cable. It is very flexible and easy to work with. If you're okay with the limitations of copper-clad aluminum (because you don't work as long, or have conductors that are too big, or just don't want to pay for 100% copper), then it's really nice to work with. The insulation is soft and flexible and there is a clearly visible black line on the cable for the negative conductor. If it were pure OFC copper it would probably be one of my favorite grades.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Decent. 16 gauge? Sure; but about AWG17 64/35 CCA.
