Speaker Wire Recommendations
We recommend using high-quality stranded speaker wire. Connect the left and
right wires from the AV receiver or amplifier directly to the corresponding left and
right binding posts on the speaker.
Use burial-rated wire for all installations. For maximum performance:
• For runs up to 30.48 m (100 ft.), use 16 ga wire or better.
• For runs up to 60.96 m (200 ft.), use 14 ga wire or better.
• For runs up to 91.44 m (300 ft.), use 12 ga wire or better.
You can use smaller wire gauges, but performance degrades depending on gauge
and distance. The chart below shows the signal loss that you can expect on a
typical run based on gauge and distance.

NOTE:
Following the wiring recommendations for the Terrain system creates a
nominal impedance on a standard multichannel or 2-channel amplifier. The chart
above outlines the expected impedance per the system configuration.
