Speaker wire
Three 2 conductor 18 gauge speaker wires are included with all powered models (CSF48A, CSF55A and
CSF65A) to connect the amplifier module to the three speaker modules. The passive model (CSF48P)
requires a two-conductor wire of sufficient gauge for each of the three speaker modules. The actual gauge
required depends on the length of the wire. For recommendations, please refer to the chart below:

When running loudspeaker wire inside walls or ceilings, use special jacketed cable (CL-2 or CL-3 rating) to
protect the wire and to provide fire prevention. In some municipalities, conduit is required. For a trouble-free
installation, low voltage wire such as loudspeaker wire must be in accordance with the National Electrical
Code and any applicable provisions of the local building code. If you are unsure of the correct installation
techniques, wire jacket, or type of conduit to use, consult a professional audio/video installer, building
contractor, or the local building and inspection department.
