Wirepath SP-164-500-WH 16/4 Speaker Wire 500ft White

Product Description

The WIREPATH SP-164-500-WH is a 16 AWG, 4-conductor speaker wire supplied on a 500-foot pull box in white jacket. Designed for in-wall and behind-wall audio distribution in residential and light commercial installations, this non-plenum rated cable carries audio signals from amplifiers and receivers to passive loudspeakers. The 16 AWG conductor gauge suits mid-length runs where low resistance and clean signal transfer are priorities. The 4-conductor configuration supports dual-voice-coil speakers or two independent speaker zones on a single cable run. Audio installers and low-voltage technicians are the primary trades working with this product.

This cable is suited for residential home theater, whole-home audio distribution, and light commercial background music systems. The white jacket blends with standard drywall finishes and is common in new construction and retrofit installs where cable will be routed through standard stud bays or along surface-mounted raceways. The 500-foot box format is practical for multi-room wiring projects where continuous pulls across multiple drops are needed from a single spool.

Key Features

• 16 AWG conductor gauge suitable for runs up to typical residential and light commercial speaker wire distances
• 4-conductor configuration supports dual-zone or dual-voice-coil wiring from a single cable
• 500-foot pull box minimizes handling and supports long or multi-drop runs
• White jacket finish compatible with standard interior wall finishes
• Non-plenum rated for use in standard stud-bay and non-air-handling spaces

Compatibility

Designed as a non-plenum, 16 AWG 4-conductor speaker cable for use in standard residential and light commercial audio distribution systems where NEC Class 2 or CL2 wiring methods apply in non-air-handling spaces.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage audio technicians and structured wiring installers are the primary trades handling this cable. This cable is rated for non-plenum spaces only and must not be routed through air-handling plenums or ducts where plenum-rated cable is required by local code. Follow NEC Article 640 and any applicable local low-voltage wiring requirements when routing and terminating speaker wire. Disconnect all amplifier and receiver power before making connections at either end of the run.
