Speaker Wires
Cmple.com features one of the largest selections of speaker wires and cables. Variety of lengths, thickness and colors will help homeowners find the right way to connect pro audio, consumer electronics, and home theater audio system to receivers and high definition devices. Important factors to consider before purchasing speaker wires and cables include choosing the correct gauge, length, and connectors. For example, a simple, home theater set-up with relatively small distance between speakers and signal output devices would require 14-16AWG (abbr. gauge) cable.
AWG – American Speaker Wires and Cables Gauge standards
Optimal gauges proposed by the American Wire Gauge standard, suggest using 16AWG for set-ups with less than 80 ft. distance, 14AWG for 80-200ft distances, and 12AWG for set-ups with over 200ft distances.
Speaker Wire Connectors
Type of connectors used to patch speaker wires and cables ends are determined by brand and format of output speakers. Primarily serving as a short circuit preventive measure, categories of speaker wires connectors can be divided into five categories: banana, pin, plugs, spade, and dual. To determine the correct format of speaker wires connector, users can refer to the manufacturer’s website or the installation manual.
