Speaker cable Cabletech KAB0380, 0.2 mm cross-section, black-red, two-conductor audio cable

Cabletech KAB0380 is a two-conductor speaker cable with a 0.2 mm cross-section and a black-red jacket. It is intended for basic audio signal transmission between amplifiers, receivers and loudspeakers in home and small audio setups. The compact conductor size and two-core construction make this cable suitable for short to medium length runs where space and flexibility are priorities.

Advantages

The cable combines a clear color-coded jacket for easy polarity identification with a slim 0.2 mm conductor cross-section that provides flexibility and neat routing in confined installations. Its straightforward two-conductor design supports unbalanced speaker connections and DIY audio projects, and the plastic insulation reduces the risk of short circuits when connecting bare wire ends. The black-red coloring simplifies installation by allowing quick visual detection of positive and negative conductors.

Suitable for

• Stereo systems and bookshelf speakers
• Short to medium length speaker runs in living rooms or small venues
• DIY speaker builds and hobby audio projects
• Temporary or discreet installations where thin cable routing is required

Key specifications

• Type: two-conductor speaker cable
• Conductor cross-section: 0.2 mm (per conductor)
• Color: black and red jacket for polarity identification
• Insulation: plastic sheath around conductors for basic protection
• Application: analogue speaker signal transmission for home and small audio setups

How to use

Strip a small section of the outer jacket and insulation from each conductor without nicking the wire, then connect the exposed conductors to the speaker terminals and amplifier outputs, observing correct polarity (red = positive, black = negative). Ensure secure mechanical contact by tightening terminal screws or using suitable connectors. Route the cable away from power lines and heat sources to minimize interference and avoid damage. For best performance, keep runs short to medium in length and avoid excessive bending or kinking of the cable.

Usage recommendations

Use this cable for short to medium speaker connections where a compact, flexible conductor is acceptable. For long runs, higher power systems, or where low resistance is critical, choose a cable with a larger conductor cross-section. When terminating the cable, consider using ferrules or binding posts to improve contact and reduce oxidation at the connection points.
