i was not expecting this item till next week but found it on my porch today!!! shipped very fast. it is worth it to pay a little more for good speaker wire, and monster is good wire. i used 14 guage (not 16 or smaller) to wire up a whole house audio system. some spans are as much as 48 feet away from my receiver and everything sounds great. the white housing trims easily to reveal the standard 2 wires jacketed in red and black.

This review is from: Monster Cable CI Pro 14-2/500 14-Gauge 2-Conductor In-Wall Speaker Cable (500-Foot Spool) (Electronics)

First, let me say that I typically steer clear of anything with the Monster Cable brand on it because I feel it is overpriced. That's why I was surprised to find this 500ft spool of 14ga cable for such a reasonable price.

Last year I used this cable to wire a surround system in my family room and it has worked perfectly. The cable is very flexible and has a marking for every 1' of length, so it's easy to tell how much you've pulled. (The mark isn't just a tick, it actually has the number of feet printed.) It has a low-friction shielding so it's easy to pull and an internal rip-cord helps remove the shielding when you're tying this into speakers.

This is 14ga wire, which was perfect for my usage. Anything smaller starts to impact sound quality on longer runs, and larger wire is a pain to work with for some connectors and speakers.

Overall, I would highly recommend this cable. To me, this strikes a perfect balance between price and performance.

Stay in-line or above your local electrical codes. If you run speaker wire behind walls, use this type of wire.
