Product Manuals

Q: What's gauge do I need for 400 watt car speakers

A: 400W RMS or 400W Peak? 400W RMS would be more for a subwoofer and you should run 12AWG wire for those. 400W Peak which will be about 100-150W RMS (continuous and what really matters, peak is an advertising gimmick and means absolutely nothing), you’ll be perfectly fine with 16AWG copper wire. Make SURE you are getting COPPER wire because there is a PLETHORA of cheap CCA (Copper Clad Aluminum) wire on the market today and there are no disclaimers or warnings on the packages. CCA can only flow about 20% of what copper can for the same gauge! Also be careful of the terminology “AWG” and “Gauge” or “Ga”. AWG is what you want. Gauge/Ga is a junk Chinese standard. This wire is AWG even though the packaging states “Gauge” but that’s because quality companies haven’t caught up with the fact that cheap companies are cheating with sub-par standards!

Q: What is the best gauge wire for a speaker connection?

A: 16 gauge . I did a lot of research and this was the best gauge for any type of speaker

Q: can you use this speaker wire inside the walls?

A: There is a different type of wire for inside walks.

Q: Is this wire rated CL2 or CL3? Can it used inside walls or ceilings?

A: This wire is rated CL3, you can use it inside walls.

Q: Can you cut and use different lengths of wire off this spool?

A: Yes. The spool is intended to be cut to whatever lengths of wire you need.
