We build wire right: no sub-standard materials and no reduced conductor or jacket thickness. In short, this is the wire we would install in our own homes:

- Full thickness, 16 gauge/awg conductors; no skimping or reduced thickness
- High performance, 65 strand, oxygen-free copper conductors
- 100% copper conductors; no inferior copper clad aluminum (CCA)
- Black outer jacket
- Red & black conductors
- 500 foot, bulk payout box

Time Saving Features
Speaker wire isn't the most exciting product in the world, but we still found a way to pack ours full of features that will save you time and and eliminate frustration:
- Proprietary REELEX II wind and huge 4" payout hole combine to eliminate kinks and tangles as wire is pulled out of the box.
- Reinforced handles, super-strong cardboard, and a water resistant coating ensure that the box can withstand a lot of abuse.
- Foot markers ensure that you always know how much wire is left in the box.
- Room labels allow you to keep track of which room (and wall) each wire goes to.
- Rip cord and low-friction tissue make it easy to remove the outer jacket when terminating.

Ratings
Our speaker wire gets installed in your home. That's why we take fire-safety ratings seriously and why all of our wire is tested by Underwriter Laboratories (UL), the industry leading testing laboratory:
- In-wall (CL3) rated
- In-ground (Direct Burial) rated
- Approved jacketing material meets all fire safety standards
