Ancor Super Flex Audio Cable 14/2 AWG, 100-Foot

The Ancor Super Flex 14/2 AWG Audio Cable is a 100-foot length of tinned copper with a clear jacket and unidirectional lay.

Fourteen gauge is the heavier of the two Super Flex audio sizes, for longer speaker runs or higher-power systems where 16 gauge would lose output. Speaker cable resistance costs volume rather than causing a failure, so an undersized run sounds acceptable in isolation and only reveals itself against a properly sized one.

The unidirectional lay refers to how the strands are wound, and drawn copper with that construction is specified for audio performance rather than current capacity. That is the distinction from ordinary marine wire at the same gauge, which is built for power rather than signal.

The clear jacket disappears against most interior surfaces where cable has to run visibly. Tinned copper resists the corrosion that degrades household speaker wire in a boat, and super-flex construction handles the tight bends inside a tower leg or console. Explore more duplex and triplex cable.
