First off, this is CCA, so be aware of that before purchasing. This company does offer OFC wire.
Packaging:
The wire comes on a good size spool. Lots of logos, and if you scan the QR code it takes you to the seller’s Amazon page. Looks good.
The wire:
This is nice, 10 AWG wire. The insulation is thick, the blue and silver are a nice, subtle color. This is great stuff for indoor audio systems or small wiring projects.
Conclusion:
I will definitely use this in various home audio builds. It’s a lot of wire at a gauge I prefer for speakers. For vehicle builds I prefer OFC, and as it looks like this company offers OFC wire I’ll be checking out their offerings.

Install Link is My jam!
You’ve probably seen some of My other Reviews, so you know that We are now using Install Link cable exclusively in our shop!
Aside from the amazing pricing, their cable comes in generous 50 and 100 foot rolls which contain some of the softest, most compliant, yet incredibly durably jacketed cable on the market!
This 10 Ga. cable is plenty large enough for most of your average powering, and Subwoofer applications. Of course you’d want a single digit gauge for huge amps, and woofers, but for your run of the mill aftermarket radio install, this stuff more than does the job!
The jacket is so tough that I have no reservations about installing it in the frame, and it takes a ferrule, solder, or screw post beautifully!
If you’re an installer, failing to give this cable a try is doing yourself a massive disservice!
Install Link kind of came out of nowhere, and blew me away with the quality, value, and performance they offer!
This cable is the real deal!

Pleasing to the eye
The outer jacket of this wire is aesthetically pleasing, featuring a captivating color that draws the eye. However, upon closer inspection, it becomes evident that the copper layer is rather thin. Additionally, the soft and flexible jacket raises concerns about its long-term durability, as it may potentially shed its material over time and become sticky inside a hot car due to its perceived instability of the outer jacket. Despite this drawback, the wire’s dimensions are accurate, and it exhibits excellent sound transmission capabilities.

High quality wire
This wire is a number 10 and it is big enough that I’m not gonna have any drop going to my speakers. It’s solder as well. I think it made my music sound better.

Cost effective 10 AWG speaker wires
At less than $3.50/10ft the Install Link 10 AWG Gauge Speaker Wire is a cost effective copper clad aluminum audio solution compared to pure copper wires. The technical downside is the lower electrical conductivity but I suspect the 10AWG more than makes up for it – I normally use 16 AWG wires from The Home Depot for my surrounds and I couldn’t tell a difference with these. I also like how flexible these are which makes it easy for me to route them out of sight for a clean look.

Personally I feel like 10gauge speaker wire is just the perfect size.
This is legit 10g speaker wire. It IS CCA (copper clad aluminum) speaker wire but most of the time that’s what it is. And CCA wire is perfectly fine for being used as speaker wire because that wire carries AC current from your amplifiers to your speakers. CCA is perfectly fine for that in the wattages that you would be subjecting your speakers to I know it’s a big debate between CCA and OFC or oxygen free copper wire, but there’s a place for everything and CCA is perfectly fine for speaker wire, I’ve never use it for power wire or ground carrying power to an amplifier but it has its place in some applications as well. This wire is very nice and flexible the insulation jacket on it cuts easily and 10 gauge is the perfect size for speaker wire unless you are running a thousand watts or so. You should probably consider running eight gauge or maybe even 4 Gauge Way more than most people need for component systems and home audio type systems. This is perfect. This wire will be used to wire 210 inch Subs inside of a box and also another 10 inch sub by itself in a box running about 600 W.
