Monoprice 16AWG 4-conductor speaker wire

This 1000-foot reel supplies 16AWG oxygen-free bare copper conductors for whole-house audio runs. The CL2-rated jacket meets in-wall fire codes for residential installations. Four colour-coded PVC jackets simplify polarity identification during long pulls. It suits installers wiring multiple zones from a single spool.

Who this suits and who it does not

The four-conductor design serves stereo pairs or bi-wire layouts without pulling separate cables. Buyers needing only a single pair for short runs will find shorter two-conductor rolls more practical. Systems requiring heavier gauge for very long distances or high-power loads should evaluate thicker wire options.

CL2-rated 16AWG oxygen-free copper

The cable uses 99.95 percent pure bare copper rather than copper-clad aluminium. CCA conducts only 68 percent as well, adding resistance that can alter speaker impedance curves. Pure copper keeps amplifier loading close to the speaker's nominal impedance. The black CL2 PVC jacket is approved for in-wall routing.

Questions about this item

Does the 1000ft reel include connectors or must I buy banana plugs separately?

The 1000ft reel supplies only the raw 4-conductor 16AWG cable; no connectors are included, so banana plugs, spade lugs or pin terminals must be purchased separately.

When should I choose the 4-conductor 16AWG version instead of a 2-conductor alternative?

Choose the 4-conductor version when running a single cable to a pair of speakers or to a 4-conductor wall plate, because each of the four 16AWG conductors is colour-coded for easy polarity identification.

How does the 99.95 percent pure oxygen-free copper affect amplifier load compared with typical CCA wire?

The pure bare copper conductors are about 68 percent more conductive than copper-clad aluminium, keeping total cable resistance lower so the amplifier sees a load closer to the speaker's actual impedance curve.
