Can this wire be used in electrical applications like routing power from a battery to a car radio? Around 15A or less? Is the color coded jacked rated for heat resistance?

BEST ANSWER: As any 12ga. wire is rated at 20 amps, very seldom does voltages under 50 volts ever come to question through my 45 year Profession Career in Electrical Repair. Ambient Heat generated underneath a hooded engine compartment doesn't melt the insulation of factory installed splitloom(used throughout when encompass wiring harnesses from injury and heat extremes up to appr. 300+ degrees) which is very similar to the sleeve insulation on Monoprice Nimbus Series 12-2 cable. The cable stays where it is put even under those conditions mentioned. If that isn't confidence, then simply buy a section of splitloom to critical areas where it touches sharp metal edges and engine parts.

12 gauge wire is good for 20 amps. The jacket is not heat rated.

Is this suitable for direct burial?

BEST ANSWER: Typically, if not specifically stated suitable for outdoor use, assume it is not. I personally would never direct bury cable even if it were rated for outdoor use. You may want to purchase conduit for this purpose. I would feel safe running cable of this type through conduit.

Nice speaker cable.
Great conductor. I was impressed that both sides are pure copper and wrapped clearly black & red, so no guessing or close inspection needed before putting on the ends. It was a little hard to fully flatten out, but that was expected. Great quality for the price.

Excellent and quite the bang for the $
Received the wire and replaced some 15 year old wire for my Hi-Fi system. The wire itself is nice and fine and easy to work with. If I had to comment negatively it would be the wire when received was twisted and a little stiff to work with in long lengths. That got easier to work with after I cut into the lengths I needed. Sounds great! Glad I made the purchase.

Too Stiff
I purchased the wire with the white jacket back in 2011 and it was perfect. The wall has since been repainted so I decided to purchase the black but it's too stiff and I hate it. I put a length of each color side by side thinking it was the wire, but the white jacket is round and loose, while the black jacket is a smaller diameter and causing it to feel stiff. This was a letdown and may just paint the wall another color and go back tot the white.

Nimbus 12 Gauge speaker wire
I received the product within the time frame stipulated by Monoprice and it was in good order. The product itself was exactly as described and works as it should. I have no problem recommending this product.

Heavy duty speaker wire
The gauge was correctly sized. The wire was protected and strong. I'd buy this again any day. Worked perfect.
