Monoprice 16 AWG Speaker Wire 500ft

This 500-foot spool of 16 AWG speaker wire uses 99.95 percent pure oxygen-free bare copper conductors. It is designed for home audio installations where long cable runs are required. The two-conductor cable carries a CL2 rating for in-wall fire safety compliance.

CL2 In-Wall Installation Basics

The white PVC jacket protects the conductors during pulls through stud cavities and meets building-code requirements for in-wall use. Oxygen-free copper resists corrosion better than copper-clad aluminium alternatives. Installers should avoid sharp bends that could damage the jacket or conductors.

Check Your Run Length and Polarity

Verify that 152.4 metres covers the distance between your amplifier and each speaker with enough slack for terminations. Confirm your equipment accepts bare-wire connections or plan for compatible connectors. Ensure you can identify the two conductors for correct polarity at both ends.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the 16 AWG 2-conductor wire is performing correctly after installation?

Measure DC resistance with a multimeter across each conductor; values should be consistent with 16 AWG copper and both channels should show continuity with no shorts between conductors.

What comes in the box with the 500 ft spool and what must I purchase separately?

The package contains the 500 ft (152.4 m) 16 AWG 2-conductor CL2-rated speaker wire on a spool; banana plugs, spade terminals, wall plates or any connectors are sold separately.

Which version or capacity of this Monoprice 103846 wire should I choose for my run length?

This listing is the single 16 AWG 2-conductor 500 ft option; select it when your longest speaker run is within the distance 16 AWG supports and you need CL2 in-wall rating.
