High-Quality 500ft 18AWG 2 Conductor CL2 Rated Loud Speaker Cable Wire - Ideal for In-Wall Installation (18AWG / 2 Conductors, 500ft) Review

I was very surprised to find out when checking the code on the speaker wires going through the walls that require a specially coded wire. wow, true! Checked online and found it to be very expensive at your local brick and mortar store. This was the best purchase I researched using this particular code. I'm really impressed with the quality of the wire and the coating.

Excellent speaker cable. Get a lot for the price and it sounds good. The only downside is that this wire smells pretty bad, like chemicals. I know smelling like chemicals makes sense, but he was pretty strong and annoying with his power. Luckily, the smell wears off after a few days and completely disappears after a few months. Keep in mind. Disgusting smell. for your information

This is a very cheap 4 core wire which reminds you how thin the 16 AWG gauge wire is. It works once installed, but if you want to use it in an existing build, don't even think about it. I pulled a few feet through a solid piece of drywall and the outer shell almost collapsed in places. You could probably scratch it with a miniature fingernail if you wanted to.

The plastic insulation is very soft, it bends easily and just as easily breaks. If you're not careful when stripping, you'll cut a lot of wires inside. I thought it might come with a ground wire but it doesn't. It includes a cord that easily cuts through the wire insulation and keeps all 4 wires out of the winding. If you just need cheap wiring for any project this is for you, but I wouldn't use it for something that will last forever because it's so soft and brittle.

I use it a little off label but we'll see how it holds up. with thicker UL rated wire. Less than 16g is hard to come by with a rating so it was pretty much all I could find in a short length. Small enough to stick in cracks. There is no direct pass where these speakers are. but there is extra packaging for a little extra protection. I'm worried about how it will hold up in temperature changes as it's not designed for outdoor use, but we'll see how it performs.

In my opinion, this cable is not suitable for use in audio cables and especially in high-end audio equipment. When using CCA, and in order to achieve the desired results upon delivery, the audio cable must have a certain percentage of copper plating. This was not stated anywhere in the manufacturer's description, which I think is very important and should apply to anyone using this product in high quality audio equipment. When I was soldering bare wires the copper jacket came loose as soon as…

Received the cable in the mail quickly and was very happy to be up and running. When I laid my first cable, everything was taut. I cut the wire, tore off the outer shell. and inside it was damp. I have never seen any liquid in the cable. At first I thought it was some kind of oil, and I thought maybe it was supposed to be there. But then the liquid dried on a paper towel, so I'm guessing it's water. It didn't smell of oil or isopropyl alcohol. Also, there were portions of the wire itself that…

Bought exactly what was needed for the outdoor rewiring... 100ft of white wire 18g And another 100ft of black wire 16g ( from another seller). Excellent goods. Unfortunately, the 18g white wire was exactly 21 feet shorter (missing) and we had to finish our project with the 16g black wire. I didn't notice the lack of wire as it was locked in a box and there was a wire sticking out of the hole in the center that was secured with clear tape. The other black wire was on a spool wrapped in clear…

Installing a modern home theater system with height channels requires LOTS of speaker wire. I've walked over 300 feet of this stuff by inserting a 5.1.4 Dolby Atmos enabled system into a 20 x 14 ready room. And since I was trying not to completely destroy the space I had to do some fun runs to get the wires where they needed to be and work around most of the existing drywall. This material was pretty easy to work with, you just have to be careful when removing it so you don't pull too many…
