I have had great luck with knukonceptz...

It might be a little more expensive, but it is super flexible, which I have always found to be a benefit in car audio environments.

Thanks guys. That's not TOO bad of a price on that knuconcepts wire.

Shizzon is their wire ofc and of correct size?

Well, They must sell the standardized size per code.

 

It is Stranded TTHN wire.

 

Meaning, it's stranded but when you touch it, it won't feel like feathers in your hand.

 

They use larger strands in their wire rope.

However, i personally prefer this because the wire is so small already, it makes it easier to fish through holes and gives stronger connections because it's not prone to moving all over the place.

 

Just go to Lowes and check it out yourself.

I know I'm just repeating but EBAY.  Im not gonna post a link but within 30 seconds I found a ton of 14 ga wire for rteasonable prices sure  could find good deal if looked better. I would suggest stick to manufacturers you may have heard Knu, Street wires, Monster etc Stay away from no name lamp cord looking stuff.

Monoprice is what I use. I get my stuff within 2 business days too, but I'm sure that it depends on your location. I have three sets of RCA's in my car, and three runs (just in case I do a 3-way setup) of speaker wire per door. And I have a bunch of stuff for my home setup too.
