Product overview
The Stinger Australia speaker cable range is designed to offer high-quality OFC tinned construction at an accessible price point. The ST16SPKB uses 100% true-spec oxygen-free copper with a 65-strand count, providing low resistance and consistent power delivery across the speaker cable run. The tinned conductors resist oxidation over time, maintaining connection integrity in automotive environments where heat and moisture are ongoing concerns.
The -20°C to 105°C temperature range ensures consistent cable performance from cold winter starts through to sustained heat exposure in summer. The 18 metre blister pack is suited to single vehicle speaker installations, providing a convenient pre-packaged quantity for a standard front and rear speaker cable run.

Frequently asked questions
What is the ST16SPKB used for?
The ST16SPKB is a 16 gauge OFC speaker cable used for the speaker output wiring between an amplifier and speakers in car audio installations. It is not a power cable and should not be used for amplifier power or ground runs.
What is the difference between the ST16SPKB and the ST12SPKB?
Both are blue tinned OFC speaker cables from Stinger Australia in pre-packaged blister packs. The ST12SPKB is 12 gauge in a 12 metre pack, suited to higher-powered systems or longer cable runs where minimising resistance is a priority. The ST16SPKB is 16 gauge in an 18 metre pack, suited to standard speaker installations where a lighter gauge is sufficient. Select the gauge that matches your amplifier's output and speaker cable run length.
Why are tinned conductors important in speaker cable?
Tinned conductors have a thin coating of solder applied to the copper strands, which prevents oxidation and corrosion over time. In automotive environments where heat and moisture are ongoing factors, tinned conductors maintain connection integrity and consistent resistance across the life of the installation.
Is 18 metres enough for a full speaker installation?
18 metres is sufficient for a standard front and rear speaker cable run in most vehicles. For installations requiring longer runs or additional cable, contact us and we can advise on the most suitable cable quantity for your application.
