Would these make good rear speaker wires (pic)

I found a full roll of this wire at work.. Could I use this for my rear speakers (paradigm atom)

Looks kinda short to me.

Seriously, I can't tell much from the picture. Heck, I can't even venture a guess on it's gauge. ...but it should work.

size wise it looks like 16-18 it doesn't say an ything on the roll or the wire

It looks like 18 gauge to me. You could use that to make RCA's, but I wouldn't use it for speaker wire.

If it is 18, I wouldn't use it. If it is 16, it will probably work as long as the run isn't long, but 14 would be better.
