Heavy-duty, easy-to-install speaker cable
This pro-grade speaker cable from OSD is ideal for large commercial and residential installations. It's rated for both in-wall and direct-burial use, and its 16-gauge thickness is suited for shorter wire runs of under 50 feet and 8-ohm speakers. The reinforced, flexible polypropylene jacket is UV-resistant and protects the copper conductors from heat, cold, dust, and dirt.
It comes in a helpful reinforced box with a large payout hole and an easy-pull, snag-free design. The cable itself has tissue-wrapped conductors for quick stripping and two-foot increment markers so you can see how much cable has been used and how much is left in the box.

Used this to rewire all four speakers when buying new ones. Superior in quality to the typical clear speaker wire sold everywhere. Also very easy to run the cable behind shelves, through cubby holes and other hard to reach places.
