Wirepath SP-144-500-BLK 14AWG 4-conductor Speaker Wire

Product Description

The WIREPATH SP-144-500-BLK is a 14 AWG, 4-conductor speaker wire designed for in-wall and structured wiring audio installations. Sold in a 500-foot spool, this non-plenum rated cable is intended for residential and light commercial audio distribution where plenum-rated cable is not required by code. It provides reliable signal transfer between amplifiers, receivers, and passive speaker loads. Licensed electricians, low-voltage installers, and A/V integrators are the primary trades who work with this cable during rough-in or retrofit installations.

This speaker wire is suited for whole-home audio systems, multi-room speaker distribution, and home theater rough-in work. The 4-conductor configuration supports dual-voice-coil speakers or allows a single run to serve two speaker channels from one cable pull. The black jacket blends into standard framing cavities and is appropriate for installation inside walls, ceilings, and conduit runs in non-plenum spaces such as standard stud-framed residential construction.

Key Features

• 14 AWG conductor gauge for low-resistance signal delivery over longer runs
• 4-conductor design supports dual-channel or dual-voice-coil wiring from a single pull
• 500-foot spool reduces the need for mid-run splices on large projects
• Non-plenum jacket rated for standard residential and commercial stud-wall installations
• Black jacket finish for discreet routing in walls and ceilings

Compatibility

Designed as a non-plenum, in-wall speaker cable suitable for passive speaker systems in residential and light commercial audio distribution applications. Verify local building codes to confirm non-plenum cable is permitted in the intended installation space.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or electrician in accordance with applicable NEC Article 640 requirements for audio signal cable. Confirm the installation cavity is a non-plenum return-air space before pulling this cable, as plenum-rated cable is required in air-handling spaces. De-energize all amplifiers and source equipment before making terminations. Avoid sharp bends, staple over-compression, or routing near high-voltage conductors without proper separation.
