Detail 01
14 gauge
Thick conductors, so less resistance between amp and speaker. Keeps power loss and heat down at higher volumes.

Rapco HorizonSpeaker Cable 14 Gauge 6 ft.
Sale
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 6-foot, 14-gauge speaker cable for running an amp head to a cabinet. Buy it if you need a short, thick-conductor connection between power amp and speaker.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Head-to-cab jumper in a stacked amp rig
- Short runs from a power amp to passive PA tops
- Backup speaker cable kept in a gig bag
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Guitar-to-amp use — this is not an instrument cable
- Long runs across a stage; 6 feet is a jumper
- Anyone needing a specific connector end confirmed first
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
6 ft length
Sized for a head sitting on its cabinet. Not enough reach if the amp lives offstage.
Detail 03
Speaker cable, not instrument cable
Built to carry amplifier output current, not a low-level signal. Wrong tool for a guitar-to-amp run.
Detail 04
Black jacket
Disappears against dark stage floors and amp grilles, but harder to spot when coiling up in low light.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm the connector type matches your amp and cabinet jacks before ordering
- 02Nothing else is included — cable only, no adapters
- 03Do not substitute an instrument cable here; it is not built for speaker-level current
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use this as a guitar cable?
No. Speaker cable is built to carry amplifier output to a speaker. Use a proper instrument cable between your guitar and amp.
02Is 6 feet long enough?
It is enough for a head sitting on top of its cabinet, or a power amp next to a speaker. For anything across a stage, get a longer cable.
03Why 14 gauge instead of thinner wire?
Thicker conductors mean less resistance, so more of the amp's power reaches the speaker instead of turning into heat in the cable.
04Will this work with a bass rig?
Yes, for head-to-cabinet connection, as long as the connector type matches your head's speaker output and your cabinet input.
