Know before you buy
The 15 AWG (American Wire Gauge) rating indicates the thickness of the copper conductors. This gauge is well-suited for most home audio setups, providing a balance between flexibility for routing and sufficient current capacity for clear, reliable sound transmission.
AudioQuest designs their cables with directionally controlled conductors to manage how RF noise is drained away from the signal path. By maintaining a consistent orientation during installation, you ensure the cable performs as intended to minimize interference.
The G2 features a durable PVC jacket, but it is not specifically rated for in-wall (CL2 or CL3) fire safety standards. It is best suited for external runs, such as connecting speakers to an amplifier or receiver across a room.
This design uses fewer, larger strands than standard cables, which reduces the interaction between individual strands. This helps minimize dynamic distortion and ensures a cleaner, more accurate signal transfer from your amplifier to your speakers.
No, this is a bulk spool of raw cable. You will need to strip the ends and attach your own banana plugs, spades, or pin connectors depending on your specific speaker and amplifier terminals.
