AudioQuest
AudioQuest G2 15 AWG Bulk Speaker Cable
Best upgrade for discerning listeners seeking enhanced audio clarity.
The AudioQuest G2 is a 15 AWG bulk speaker cable designed for clarity and reduced distortion. It features a Semi-Solid Concentric conductor design, which minimizes strand interaction, a common source of dynamic distortion. The cable utilizes high-purity Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors to further reduce distortion caused by grain boundaries. Directionality is controlled for RF-noise, ensuring a cleaner signal path. This cable comes on a spool for convenient installation and is sold separately from connectors. It's an excellent choice for home theater or professional audio setups where sound quality is paramount.

Know before you buy
This design uses fewer, larger strands that do not change position within the cable. By keeping the strands fixed, it minimizes strand interaction, which is a common cause of dynamic distortion in traditional multi-strand cables.
No, this is a bulk cable product sold on a spool. You will need to purchase your preferred connectors separately and terminate the ends yourself.
AudioQuest controls the directionality of the metal grains to ensure that RF noise is drained away from sensitive components. Following the directional arrows printed on the jacket during installation ensures the cleanest possible signal path.
15 AWG is a versatile gauge suitable for most home theater and stereo setups. For very long runs exceeding 50 feet, you may want to consider a thicker gauge to minimize resistance, but for standard room sizes, this cable performs reliably.
LGC contains fewer oxides and impurities within the metal structure than standard oxygen-free copper. This reduces grain boundaries, which helps prevent signal distortion and results in a clearer, more accurate sound.
