14 Gauge Speaker Wire Cable,UL CL3 Rated 14 Gauge Wire 100ft,Copper Wire with Polarity Mark,Audio Cable for in-Wall,Home,Car,Outdoor,Garden,Commercial Audio Systems,OFC(Black,4-Conductors)

We recently changed our family room carpet to Luxury Vinyl Plank. So, I could no longer hide our surround sound speaker wires under the edges of the carpet. We have a concrete foundation. They only idea I could come up with was to make outlets in the walls, go through the walls and run the cable around the outside. So that's what I did. I had about a 60-foot run, so I wanted this larger 14 gage wire. I also wanted all copper. This cable fit the bill perfectly. The sound is great. The cable was easy to work with. It has great outdoor protection. I used banana plugs on the ends of the cable inside the boxes. This way it makes for an easier install as well as removal. I sealed off the entrances on the outside walls. ON one wall the cable you see in the picture is still it's original color. However, I do plan to use some touch up paint that is closer to the stucco color to make it even less visible. On the other wall I used some sheathing over the cable just because I thought it would look better. I used silicone to hold the cable up out of site under the sliding door and the wall bottom around the patio. I am confident that this installation will last for many years.

These wires fit the lifestyle of someone who like clean looking wires that are sturdy.

Exactly what I ordered!!!

Oxygen free copper stranded copper wire is what you want for speaker wire and this is it! Copper is getting very expensive, but for long term use, it is worth it. Copper coated aluminum is getting popular because it is cheaper. But copper and aluminum expand at different rates and eventually the copper will flake off like paint often flakes off plastic. So for something that is going to be reusable and last for years and decades, you want oxygen free copper for speaker and signal wires. 14-gauge or 1/14 of an inch in diameter is thick enough that it would be very hard to beat professionally in sound quality with thicker, more expensive gauges, usually the best bang for your buck. I used to use 12-gauge, but the cost is so much higher and sound improvement is so hard to tell in side by side testing that I am now sold on 14-gauge. This is my choice and the black color casing hides the red and black wires quite well and can also be used inside of walls or buried in the ground outdoors. My speakers are black and so are the speaker stands so an uncovered black wire shows less than other colors.

I used this wiring to set up my new home sound system (7.2 Klipsch Reference series speakers, connected to a Denon AVR). It does the job perfectly well—definitely better than your run-of-the-mill copper coated aluminum wires, or the official Amazon OFC wiring (which has far too few strands of metal). The wire is well shielded, and although you may have an issue getting tight 90-degree bends or whatnot due to its thickness, you can rest assured that your audio signals won't have any disturbance from outside signals. tl;dr: this is a great product for its price range, with pure copper wiring and good shielding. If I ever needed good-value audio wire again, I get this.

This high quality cable was exactly what I needed. I purchased a moderately expensive low voltage lighting set that came with generic 14AWG direct burial cable. That would have been fine, but I needed to mount the transformer inside my basement, and since the cable passes into the interior of the house, it needs to pass the CL3 requirements for fire resistance. I contacted GearIT's Customer Service Department just to be sure the cable met the fire safety requirements, and also that it can be used for low voltage lighting (it's called speaker wire). The rep responded to my email immediately and cited the fire rating standards and confirmed the suitability for 12V landscape lighting and interior pass-through. She even gave me a few additional cautions about making sure I don't exceed a 15 amp load (transformer is 10 amp so I'm good on that), and also took the time to comment on my overall plan in terms of the number of cable runs and their length (which could cause voltage drop if they were too long). The cable arrived quickly and appears to be very high quality, with CL3 markings on the jacket and a small spec sheet showing the CL3 rating. Some people comment about the cable being too tightly coiled when it is removed from the spool, but I didn't encounter that issue at all. I'm really impressed with the GearIT product, and their Customer Service Department is one of the best I have ever dealt with!

The product appears to be as described and will function as intended. It was a good purchase.

Excellent product and quality, easy to install and was as expected.

Cavo di qualità, ideale x installazione all’ esterno

Ok

Much cheaper in price than at the store and seems to work great!

i like the high quality of the wires with the tough outer sleeve that will keep the wires protected from outdoor harsh conditions while keeping the signal transfer strong

Muy buena calidad
