Audtek 1 ft. 13 AWG 8-Conductor OFC Portable Speaker Cable 1 ft.This Audtek Electronics cable is designed from the ground up to guarantee the best possible transfer of signal from your amplifier to your speakers. It also possesses quality materials and superior construction that will provide years of service in all portable and touring pro sound applications. The cable features high strand-count pure copper conductors, and durable PVC insulation and outer jacket. Available by the foot, as well as 30 m (99 ft.) and 100 m (328 ft.) spools.
Audtek uses pure copper strands in its OFC speaker wire. You'll see OFC (Oxygen Free Copper) in many places which means the copper strands go through an additional process making it more than 99% pure copper and the result reduces resistance which increases conductivity. Increasing conductivity delivers more wattage/current to speakers or other components.
Available at a lower cost is CCA (Copper Clad Aluminum) speaker wire, which is aluminum strands covered by a thin layer of copper. Pure copper's conductivity is 35% to 40% better than CCA due to the resistance that aluminum strands add to the signal transfer. That means you would have to buy a larger gauge of CCA wire to get the same result as OFC wire. CCA wire is also very hard to get good solder results when making your own cables. Even in premade cables, the wires are more likely to separate from the connectors and cause intermittent failures. This is why we strongly recommend Audtek OFC wire and cable for all you hookup needs.
