Monoprice Access Series 18 Gauge AWG CL2 Rated 4 Conductor Speaker Wire/ Cable - 100ft Fire Safety In Wall Rated, Jacketed In White PVC material 99.9% Oxygen-Free Pure Bare Copper

There is no question that Monoprice has prioritized a cost-saving strategy Now both the outer white sheathing as well as the insulation on the bare wires are much thinner. The construction of the device feels cheap and flimsy. The new paper-based system was used in an application that was going the be seen, so I was able to implement it in a way that was more visible It is not acceptable to have thin sheathing. The individual conductors in the cable are clearly visible and it looks more like a rope than like a nice round cable as it did previously. That they are still able to meet their CL2 rating amazes me. The 4-star I need for my writing will have to be found elsewhere There are cable needs when it comes to conductors.

Here are some pictures of the spool - you can see it is less than usable The end disks are made of cheap cardboard that falls apart and the round core is made of cheap plastic that breaks even during shipping. A broken centre core was found in all four boxes of 250' and a cardboard side was broken in one box. As a result, the wire unravels to a great extent if you pull it. the second picture. )

They also give me crappy packaging on their 1,000-foot It's a lot of effort to move them by the grip holes, and the cardboard tears and the installation is a hassle. Unless you plan to use them at home for more than one install, you can use them at home. Nevertheless, if you have a business using these products, you should purchase a higher-quality product. This is not a good option if you are running a business. Over the past 24 months, Monoprice has cut a lot of corners and lowered the quality of its products. I've been a customer of Monoprice for many years. Despite the fact that some value is being delivered for the money, the aggravation and problems are interfering with any competitive advantage the company has.

A version 11 has been installed. The cable was used on two audio systems and we regret it greatly. As a result of several attempts to get good sound quality from the cable, I ultimately requested a refund for an additional 100ft spool. It would be nice if I could get a refund for the two previous ones that I bought, but I am not optimistic they will My new cable worked exceptionally well and the audio now comes out clear as bells and the bass hits like a ton of bricks.

The Monoprice Access Series 12 gauge AWG CL2 rated cable/wire comes in a package of 4 the following. As I have purchased falsely labeled wire in the past, I recommend that you weigh and count wire when buying it The total length of the wire and cardboard spools on the entire spool is 14Kg x 12" length with both conductors and all insulation equals The spool weighs 7 grams, so it is reasonable that there are 250' of thread on it.
If you strip off all insulation from one conductor, the answer is There are 65 strands in one conductor, so 7grams*65strands = 8grams of bare conductor (65strands) is equivalent to 12" or 30cm of bare conductor. This is 98%, or 7grams, of what was expected to be I can get an accurate reading of 888grams using my scale and measuring precision. A thick cardboard and plastic construction makes Spools durable and functional.

According to amazon, there are 82 reviews at the time I'm writing this, and I won't go through them all again, but I read some of them ahead of time. In this case, I want to point out something that may not have been mentioned The wire in each foot is clearly marked. In other words, a unraveled string of 100 feet indicates This can be helpful in some scenarios, and I thought it was helpful in this particular case. The roll, purchased at a discount because it was an open box deal, came clearly marked at the 100 foot level, so I did not feel the need to unravel it all to check. There is a nice touch here and something you don't see on most wires.

One hundred feet for a low price. got this cable because the online store where I just bought my powered subwoofers said that the cable had to be 18 AWG 4 conductors. They are the worst cables I have ever seen. An old four-conductor cable from a five-conductor cable is available for me to use There is a set of headphones I bought from monoprice 10 years ago that I still have. It is easy to tell the difference between them. It was hard to believe they were made so well. It took me five minutes to order and receive these cables. I consider them to be a total waste of time. I wouldn't recommend buying anything from them. If you have to do wall installation, this is the most costly mistake to make. My first job of the day was to install these cables in the wall. There are so many complaints about these cables I feel compelled to come back here to read what other customers have said. The reviews are great! Thanks to everyone who came and read them. My contractor wants to close the walls soon, so I have to snake some better cables for my subwoofers. Monoprice cables must be sold by another company on Amazon under a different brand. This is the first time, after ordering from Monoprice for over 20 years, I have encountered such a poor product and I have always ordered directly from Monoprice. Due to the time constraint, I had to order on Amazon in order to get the item in 2 days. This cable looks like an off brand at Amazon, which makes me wonder if it really comes from Monoprice.
