    The copper wire is all that fills the casing, not plastic filler! The CL casing is slightly loose... but, come on, for the price they are selling this copper wire, it is all fantastic. I will definitely buy this product for next wiring renovation.

    Very nice quality wire. Inner jackets are thick and well made. Only dislike is the outer jacket is very loose. Not a problem, and I do not expect it to cause a problem pulling the cable, but would be nice if the jacket fit a little snugger.

    no issues, cheaper on amazon than anywhere else I looked. Glad I bought the 250 roll. used all but about 10, stereo sounds awesome

    Couldnt be better - fast shipping, great quality, great price! What more can be expected from a product? I reviewed other user reviews and I would only echo them. If you need speaker wires for INSIDE OF WALLS, this is the product to consider.

    Great for running in walls to binding posts. Nice and heavy for carrying over long distances.

    Good cable. Little stiff but was easy to work with.

    500 feet later, wire appears to be good wire, will not know for 45-60 days, still wiring, then sheet rock, texture, paint, tile, then awesome surround sound!!!!!!!! Wire is beefy and well twisted.

Get the most out of your home audio system with high quality, oxygen-free, pure bare copper speaker wire from monoprice!

this speaker wire features two conductors made of high purity (greater than 99.95% pure), oxygen-free bare copper. Pure bare copper is a superior conductor to the copper clad aluminum (CCA) conductors used in most other inexpensive speaker wire. Cca is only about 68% as conductive as pure bare copper. This additional resistance is added to the impedance of your speakers and can negatively effect The sound.

for the wire to have no audible effect, The total wire resistance should be no more than 5% of the lowest impedance of your speakers. Even speakers rated for a nominal 8-ohms, may dip to as low as 4-ohms at some frequencies, which further reduces the total cable resistance allowed in the wire. Using pure bare copper speaker wire ensures that the total load put on the amplifier remains as close as possible to the impedance curve of your speakers.

for example, a 16AWG 2-conductor pure bare copper speaker wire has a total resistance of 0.803 ohms per 100 feet (both directions must be considered). by comparison, a 16AWG 2-conductor CCA speaker wire has a total resistance of 1.181 ohms per 100 feet. Assuming 4 ohms is the lowest impedance of your speakers, a speaker wire run can be no more 0.2-Ohms total. 20 feet of 16AWG pure bare copper would be 0.1606 ohms, well under the 0.2-Ohm limit. On the other hand, 20 feet of 16AWG CCA would be 0.2362 ohms, well over the 0.2-Ohm limit.

each conductor is jacketed with color-coded PVC for easy polarity identification. The entire cable assembly is jacketed in a white, CL2-rated PVC material. The CL2 rating indicates that the cable complies with fire safety and insurance requirements, making it safe for use inside the walls of residential class buildings.
