OSD Audio 16/2 Speaker Wire — 16 AWG, OFC, UL Listed, In-Wall/Direct Burial, 500 ft

Overview

OSD Audio’s 16/2 Speaker Wire blends rugged build quality with installation versatility. This two-conductor cable uses 16 AWG sizing and oxygen-free copper to support clear, consistent signal transfer over longer runs, while its UL listings (CL2/CL3) reflect a design built for consumer and professional environments alike. Whether you’re running wiring behind walls or burying cable outdoors, this line is prepared to handle the demands of real-world setups with confidence.

Durable, versatile construction

The jacket is UV-resistant polypropylene, a shield that helps guard copper strands against moisture and sun exposure. This means it’s better suited for outdoor paths, basements, crawl spaces, and exterior walls without sacrificing interior performance. The combination of robust insulation and OD-free copper helps maintain signal integrity across typical installation distances.
