Speaker Cable LP SMYp 2 x 0.22 mm² black 300 m

LP SMYp speaker cable 2 x 0.22 mm² on a 300 m spool is a twin-conductor, low-voltage audio cable designed for connecting amplifiers and speakers. The cable's compact conductor cross-section and flexible insulation make it suitable for installations where space is limited or where runs are short to medium in length. Supplied in black on a large spool, it is intended for professional and residential audio wiring tasks that require a discreet, unobtrusive cable profile.

Advantages

The cable offers a balanced combination of flexibility and compact size, making routing through conduits, wall cavities, or tight spaces easier than thicker speaker leads. The twin conductors are sized for low-power speaker connections and allow quick identification of polarity during installation. Being supplied on a 300 m spool reduces the need for frequent reel changes and supports bulk deployment across multiple rooms or zones.

Suitable for

• Short to medium-length speaker runs in homes, bars, or small venues
• Fixed installations behind walls, under floors, or in conduits where space is limited
• Multi-room audio systems and distributed speaker setups
• Temporary or permanent installations that require a long spool for multiple runs

When it may not be suitable

This 2 x 0.22 mm² conductor size is not recommended for long-distance runs or high-power speaker systems where voltage drop and power handling become critical. For high-power amplifiers, subwoofers, or long cable runs, a larger conductor cross-section is typically required to maintain audio quality and safety. Also, the cable is intended for low-voltage audio use and may not meet requirements for exposed outdoor runs without additional mechanical protection.

Key specifications

• Conductor configuration: two parallel conductors
• Conductor cross-section: 0.22 mm² per conductor
• Color: black outer insulation
• Length: 300 meters on spool
• Application: low-voltage speaker/ audio signal connections
• Construction: flexible insulated conductors suitable for concealed or surface routing

How to use

Measure the required run length and cut the cable from the spool, allowing extra length for termination and routing. Strip the insulation from each conductor for a clean connection to speaker terminals or amplifier binding posts, observing correct polarity. Route the cable through conduits or cavities, securing it with appropriate clips or fasteners to prevent movement. For in-wall installations, follow local electrical and building regulations and, if required, use protective tubing or conduit where the cable may be subject to mechanical stress.

What to consider before purchase

• Required conductor size based on run length and speaker power to avoid excessive voltage drop
• Whether the cable will be run indoors, in-wall, or outdoors and if additional protection is needed
• Number of runs needed relative to the 300 m spool length to ensure sufficient material
• Compatibility with terminal types used on your amplifier and speakers

Usage recommendations

For typical home and small-venue setups, use this 2 x 0.22 mm² cable for runs under a few meters or for low-power satellite speakers. For runs beyond moderate distances or for high-power applications, choose a cable with a larger cross-section and, for exposed or outdoor installations, add appropriate conduit or rated outdoor cable.
