Monoprice 12AWG CL2 Rated 2-Conductor Speaker Wire 500 Feet Black

Description

Oxygen-Free Bare Copper for Home Theater AV Receivers - Access Series

Get the most out of your home audio system with high-quality Monoprice™ 12AWG Speaker Wire, engineered for exceptional sound clarity, durability, and safety. This premium cable features two conductors made from oxygen-free, pure bare copper with over 99.95% purity, significantly outperforming copper-clad aluminum (CCA) alternatives commonly found in lower-cost speaker wires. While CCA is only about 68% as conductive as pure copper, Monoprice’s use of pure bare copper ensures minimal resistance, preserving signal integrity and ensuring no audible degradation in your sound. This is especially critical as speakers rated at 8 ohms can dip to 4 ohms at certain frequencies demanding a wire that maintains a low resistance to accurately match the impedance curve.

With its robust 12AWG thickness, this speaker wire supports longer cable runs with minimal signal loss, keeping amplifier loads stable and delivering consistent, high-quality audio performance. Each conductor is jacketed in color-coded PVC for easy polarity identification, while the overall cable is enclosed in a durable black CL2-rated PVC jacket, meeting fire safety and in-wall installation standards for residential buildings. Whether for home theaters or professional installations, Monoprice™ speaker wire offers the reliability, performance, and safety trusted by audio professionals and enthusiasts alike.
