Monoprice 113726 16AWG 4-Conductor CMP Speaker Wire

The Monoprice 113726 Nimbus Series 16AWG 4-Conductor Speaker Wire is built specifically for installations where building codes require plenum-rated cabling. Its CMP rating certifies that the jacket material meets fire safety standards for use in plenum air-handling spaces, the areas above suspended ceilings and below raised floors where fire-resistant materials are mandatory. This makes it suitable for commercial installations, conference rooms, retail spaces, and residential builds where code compliance is required.

Each cable contains four 16 AWG conductors made from 100% pure oxygen-free bare copper, delivering low resistance and reliable audio signal transmission. The four conductors — color-coded red, black, white, and green — support bi-amplified speaker connections or dual-zone wiring from a single cable pull. Monoprice has addressed one of the most common complaints about plenum cables by engineering a jacket material that is noticeably softer and more flexible than typical CMP-rated cables, reducing the effort needed to route wire through walls, ceilings, and conduit. The 100-foot spool provides enough wire for most single-zone installations with material to spare.
