C4CA Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Can someone tell me the appropriate speaker gauge installer should be using for a 300 ft wire run for landscape speakers. thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lippavisual Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 This will vary greatly depending on what type of system and speakers. But in general, 10 awg would be what I’d install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BraydonH Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 You will be fine with some nice 14/2 speaker wire. 12/2 would be overkill and i have never needed 10/2 speaker wire for any application before. Landscape speakers are usually 70v and aren't as prone to volt drop as an 8 ohm speaker would be. If your landscape speakers are 70v you could prob even get away with 16/2. Long story short use 14/2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tekki70 Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 14/4 is totally sufficient for 8ohm and 16x2 for 70v. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
