outdoor speaker wires

[itawad]

Dear All

Can I use regular speaker wires outside for an outdoor system provided I dont bury them and use waterproof connections to the speakers ?

Sure. I'd probably try and shield the connections from the elements somewhat, tho (my deck speakers are under eaves so weather never hits the back of the speaker). I used common speaker wire, tho.

I would use low-voltage garden lighting cable.
