FAQ

For most home theater setups, 16-gauge or 14-gauge speaker wire made of 100% copper is recommended. The choice depends on the distance between your receiver and speakers, with thicker wire (lower gauge) better for longer runs.

Yes, you can route speaker wires inside walls or under carpets using in-wall rated (CL2 or CL3) speaker wire. Cable raceways and wire covers are also useful for concealing wires along baseboards or walls.

Both options work. Bare wire connections are common, but banana plugs offer a cleaner, more secure connection and make it easier to plug and unplug your speakers.

To maintain correct polarity, connect the positive (+) terminal on your receiver to the positive terminal on your speaker, and the negative (−) to the negative. Most speaker wires are marked or color-coded to help you match the terminals.

While there’s no strict maximum, longer runs can cause signal loss. For runs up to 50 feet, 16-gauge wire is sufficient; for longer distances, use thicker 14-gauge or 12-gauge wire to ensure optimal sound quality.
