WIRING INFO - 70V/100V OPERATION

Speaker cable

Wiring speakers for 70V/100V systems is simple and easy.  A single run of 

2-conductor, stranded wire is run to every speaker location leaving a small 

loop (2-3 feet is usually more than sufficient depending on the speakers and 

their mounting type) at each speaker location.  You can place additional loops 

for future expansion or for making speaker location changes if needed.
Note: This is very different from typical low-impedance wiring used for 

residential audio installations where a dedicated run of wire goes from each 

speaker back to the amplifier/receiver.   70V/100V wiring uses much less wire 

and the wire used can be a much higher gauge (thinner wire) even though it is 

used in a longer run.
Here is a chart showing some of the differences possible among wire lengths 

for both low impedance (4Ω-8Ω) and high impedance (70V/100V) systems:
