Me Too My Friend, Me Too - Today’s purchase is the DS18 branded 16 gauge speaker wire, 100 feet spool. I did in fact get five, 20 feet runs, for each of the 5 channels of my small amplifier. These runs were more than ample length to reach the speaker locations. Each pair is wired in parallel at the speaker terminals and then run to the amp via a single run per channel. This is how I was able to wire four tweeters, four midrange speakers, and two subwoofers to my 5 channel amplifier on a single spool, with some extra to wire up the garage stereo as well. I really prefer black and red jackets, and was looking for some good quality 16 gauge wire that would hold up to the job I had planned for it, roughly 17V, 10A per channel in vehicle, and up to 40V, 22.5A in the garage. This offer totally checked all the boxes and was an amazing value for the money. The wire itself seems to be a decent strand count, with a nice thick jacket for thermal and interference protection. The wire is very pliable, which is a total plus, making it super easy to work with, maneuvering around all the tight places. The one down side for some people might be the CCA, but not for me. The loss in efficiency at this level is negligible, with no audible difference in sound quality. I have used CCA for almost years and don’t have anything negative to express, so I am super confident that this wire will last a very long time. If you’re like me, and prefer black and red jacketed, quality wire from a name you can trust, then I would highly recommend giving them a try. Review: DS 18 - What can I say this wire. I love this stuff & it is very durable and easy to use. It will give your system quality sound. It’s a great value for the money. It’s very soft and it’s compatible with any system along with the length being perfect. ## Features - OPPER CLAD ALUMINUM (CCA) - CCA wiring provides a good conductor for power transfer. This is the most economical option when choosing power or ground wire. Systems that require more power should consider OFC wiring. - Allows free, wide and seamless adjustment of the required physical properties of this wire such as flexibility, elasticity, and impact resistance. - PREMINUM SPEAKER WIRE – Use this DS18 Speaker Wire Cable that’s build quality stranded conductors to build this professional grade speaker wire audio cable - Never stop innovating attitude - DS18 stands out from other brands with our progressive designs and unwavering commitment to delivering the most technologically up-to-date products on the market. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08L5GRGXT | | Best Sellers Rank | #6,906 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #32 in Speaker Cables | | Brand | DS18 | | Brand Name | DS18 | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 650 Reviews | | Gauge | 16 | | Manufacturer | DS18 | | Material | Copper Clad Aluminum (CCA) | | Material Type | Copper Clad Aluminum (CCA) | | Model | ChaVMT-816 | | No. of wires | 2 | | Number Of Wires | 2 | | Number of Cable Strands | Multi Strand | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Part Number | ChaVMT-816 | | Strands | Multi Strand | | UPC | 810005185066 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | manufacture | ## Product Details - **Brand:** DS18 - **Color:** Black - **Gauge:** 16.0 - **Material:** Copper Clad Aluminum (CCA) - **Number of Cable Strands:** Multi Strand ## Images ![SW-16GA-100RB 16-GA Ultra Flex Speaker Wire Red and Black 100 Ft - Speaker Cable for Audio Applications - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/7115SVh8O1L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Recommend for a boat?** A: Yes. Black and red are the colours of DC electrical systems. **Q: How hard is it to remove plastic jacket.** A: Not hard at all.!! It has a very soft casing around it, and works really well. **Q: Would this last if used for marine applications?** A: It would assuming you’re connections are waterproofed. Salt water will erode the casing over time though of course. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We Like It Loud.
