Great value for the money. 16 Guage fit my needs perfectly and 100' was more than enough for my Klipsch Reference Premier L,R,C, and surround speakers I got on a holiday deal. Sound quality is great and worked with banana plugs for easier use.

I was looking for a speaker for a sound system and I was able to find this quickly. It was the best choice after looking around and was readily available and has worked great for the sound system so far.

Speaker wire at a good cost, how it should be. The massive downfall is that the wire has no polarity indication so you have to work harder than you should to make sure you have it correct.

I had to return it because the wires had no markings to differentiate between the polarity of the wires.

I'm an installer for bestbuy (car audio specifically but still have a strong understanding of home audio due to how similar they are) and I would of given these wires one star for the somewhat misleading info that's listed but still went with two stars as it actually is a good product especially for price. They at least specify under "features" that copper clad aluminum is better than the basic aluminum but not in the description. they simply state "higher conductivity and unmatched sound quality". If you want true quality and conductivity you'll want "OFC" speaker wire which is oxygen free copper especially if you need the 100' for long runs. To put simply CCA wire like this can suffer from huge voltage drops if the wire stretches longer distances. To avoid this you either need to buy thicker CCA wire or switch to OFC wire as it won't drop in voltage as quickly and be able to deliver to your speakers a much healthier amount voltage. As i said these wires are good and worth the quantity you get for the price but my company shouldn't be wording this product the way they did. I hope anyone who reads this finds it at least a lil helpful.
