Outdoor Speaker Wire 14AWG 4 Stranded Conductors OFC Direct Burial Black 500ft
Run audio to two pairs of outdoor speakers with one burial — this 14AWG 4-conductor OFC direct burial speaker wire carries two stereo pairs underground in a single cable. One pull covers pairs at the pool and backyard, or a bi-wire outdoor speaker with separate tweeter and woofer terminals.
The FR-PVC jacket and paper tape layer block moisture, UV, and temperature extremes underground and outdoors. 105 strands of OFC per conductor stay flexible during burial through soil and obstacles. CMR and CL3R rated for runs through walls or risers before exiting outdoors. Four color-coded conductors keep wiring fast and accurate at every terminal.
