KabelDirekt – Pure Copper Stereo Audio Speaker Wire & Cable – Made in Germany – 14 AWG Gauge – 50 feet – (for HiFi Speakers and Surround Sound Systems, Pure Copper, with Polarity Markings)

Worked as expected, Good quality and a fair price

My main motivation for getting this cable was the speaker manufacturer for my new front LCRs recommended 16 AWG for all short runs. I only had 18 AWG, and this wasn't expensive, so why not? Despite a handful of reviews mentioning the plastic getting stripped off when pulling apart the two cables, I didn't encounter that at all. I was able to separate the cables without any issue of the plastic insulation ripping. The first thing I noticed about the wire was that it didn't actually appear wider than my 18 AWG cable. That aside, one thing that was noticeably better was that each individual strand was significantly larger than in my previous cable, and in spite of that, the cable is still plenty flexible. I found this to be important in a good way because I've had issues with many individual strands breaking off, particularly when stripping the wire or attaching banana plugs. Did not encounter that issue at all with this cable and its meaty strands. After setting up one of my speakers with the new wire, I was curious to see if it would sound any different. After playing some music in Mono mode, I found that the low end mid range came across a bit deeper and richer than the speakers connected with my older 18 AWG cable. The highs were basically the same, but an obvious improvement at the lower end. I even asked my wife to do a blind test (she didn't know which speaker I connected), and she also picked the one with this wire as the best sounding one. All and all, this is a great copper speaker wire to get, particularly at its price. If you need new speaker wire and don't need CCA, just get this and be done with it. You'll be happy.

This is very good speaker wire. The 16 AWG seems to be well suited to most speaker A framer’s nd an dGodc need byqds build needs and DYt wi7n, seqkee

This is a decent speaker cable with good real ofc copper 16 gauge! I used this 16awg ofc to splice in a second subwoofer to my Samsung Q990C soundbar as well has add external side surround and front and rear Atmos speakers! Overall good quality for the price, but the one thing I don’t like is how stiff the cable is. The pvc around the copper is thick but the strands are also thicker which makes the wire harder to bend. Only an issue is trying to run the wire in Certain scenarios. Side note, after getting this wire 50ft 16awg, I bought the Amazon basics 14awg inwall speaker wire in white 100ft for about $5 more. The flexibility of both wires (excluding the hard white outer shell) have about the same flexibility. I think I’ll have to spend more $$ if I want a truly flexible speaker wire.

Great quality wire, super fast shipping!

This seems like solid high quality speaker wire. I am satisfied with the product.

This is made in Germany and claims to be Pure Oxygen Free Copper (OFC). I think to save weight on shipping, it does not come on a spool but is wound nicely. It comes with a card and contact information for Service, Support, & Warranty in Germany. As soon as I picked up this 14 gauge wire I could feel it was heavier and thicker than my old 16 gauge. Do not try to separate the ends by hands since the jacket is thicker. Use a sharp utility blade to get a clean cut in-between the positive and negative wires. For the ends I used Amazon Basics self crimping, gold plated zinc (non-magnetic) banana plugs. Non-magnetic metals are the way to go since magnetic metals can have a negative effect on the audio signal. These sound great on my Left, Center, & Right speakers. This was for short runs of 2 x 8' and 1 x 4'. For unshielded wire I think it sounds better than the 16 gauge, shielded, 20yr old Monster Cable it replaced. I would definitely recommend this speaker wire to anyone looking to upgrade their speaker connections.

I had a vintage Nikko stereo receiver where one channel started having a different tone than the other. That channel had a weaker output as well. So I sold that receiver and replaced it with a higher-powered Nikko. Soon, the same problem popped up. It seemed like too much of a coincidence, so this time I replaced the speaker wire. The old speaker wire was a high gauge (small conductor), copper/aluminum mix, kluged together from 2 or 3 lengths of wire for each speaker. Replacing the speaker wire not only fixed the difference between the channels, but it improved the sound of the receiver tremendously. Honestly, I wouldn't have believed it if you told me the difference it would make, especially on the low frequency parts. It's like I bought new speakers.

I used this wire almost a year for my denon amp to connect with SVS speakers system. Very good quality. No any lags, bumming noise, Pure sound output you get serves best👍

Received KabelDirekt Pure Copper Speaker Cable in Good Condition and the Sound is 👍👍👍 Really good 👍👍👍

I bought this item three times: just to replace my 25 years-old Monster cable for speakers. The first time( 50 ft) didn't cover all my job.The second round did it all ; but my cuts in both cases were too straight, kind of too short, not allowing room for speakers cleanup and maintenance; as results some bananas plugs used in combination to perform the speakers wiring got slightly bent. The third buy is making some existing wiring longer and provide the ability for moving attached devices back and forth or around. The cable doesn't strech and is Oxygen Free Copper; the sound is perfect: fine, clear and clean, all great compare to the one of my old cable which was little heavy. In all it's a Great product for a fair price. Thanks!

Great cable - 14 gauge is perfect for a small lounge room. I installed a new 5.1.4 speaker system using this cable along with a heap of banana plugs and a couple of speaker cable wallplates. Make sure you measure correctly (especially for in-ceiling runs) - I underestimated what I needed (I ordered one 100ft roll plus a 50ft roll). I had to order an additional 50ft roll later. Would have been cheaper to get two 100ft rolls in the first place. Love the red line on one side to indicate the positive wire - more intuitive than the usual white line.

un muy excelente cable para audio en casa o en car audio especialmente si tu sistema no tiene cable 100% cobre (si tu sistema ya tiene cable 100% cobre y es del mismo calibre o mas grueso creo que no notaras diferencia al cambiarlo), este cable se lleva a varios por la calidad-precio ya que para conseguir un cable de marca reconocida de estas mismas características por el mismo precio que este solo te estarás llevando de 5 a 10 metros a lo mucho. al instalar este cable para sustituir un cable de calidad baja de un set de medios de un sistema de car audio (amplificador arc audio ks 300.4 del cual los canales delanteros alimentan unos 2 tweeter dd audio VO-B2 y con los canales traseros 4 medios dd audio VO-M6.5 de los cuales cada par los tengo en paralelo en cada canal (todo lo manejo en modo estéreo no en modo mono no soy un monstro) y al momento de reproducir la música note de inmediato una mejora en la limpieza del audio y menor distorsión al subir el volumen. ventajas: 1- por el precio de este producto es una ganga ya que se lleva a varios de marca reconocida por el precio-calidad. 2-el protector es muy grueso y protege muy bien el cable. desventajas: 1- al ser el recubrimiento muy grueso es un poco difícil de maniobrar en instalación de car audio. 2- los cables no esta centrados al recubrimiento (incluso los de baja calidad están centrados), los cables están mas pegados hacia la orilla de la unión con el otro cable y es un poco difícil la separación bien cuando quieres para conectar de un amplificador a unos parlantes (te recomiendo una navaja para hacer la separación esto lo hace algo fácil), pero cuando lo quieres separar por completo para conectar unas bocinas o un subwoofer en serie es difícil hasta el punto que de uno de los lados el cobre se desprende del protector si no lo haces con mucho cuidado (yo diría que demasiado cuidado). pongo imágenes referente a la desventaja N° 2, los cables de mala calidad es de calibre 16.
