Description

Build custom speaker cables with Canare 4S11

Canare 4S11 Black is a four-conductor star-quad speaker cable for custom amplifier-to-passive-speaker connections. Four individually insulated 14 AWG conductors sit inside a flexible PVC jacket. In the conventional two-conductor star-quad configuration, two conductors are combined for each polarity, providing approximately 11 AWG equivalent per paired leg.

This listing is the standard 4S11 in Black, not the oxygen-free copper 4S11G version.

Ordering by the foot

Sold by the foot in a continuous length. Quantity 25 means one 25-foot piece. This is unterminated bulk cable; connectors are not included. Allow extra length for routing, termination, and service loops.

Choose your color or conductor version

  • 4S11 Black (this listing): Standard 4S11 with a Black jacket.
  • 4S11 Grey: Standard 4S11 with a Grey jacket.
  • 4S11G Grey OFC: Grey jacket with oxygen-free copper conductors, a different model rather than just another color.

Understand the star-quad wiring

When appropriately wired, the star-quad arrangement helps reduce magnetic-field radiation from speaker lines into nearby low-level microphone and signal cables. It is not a shield and does not eliminate the need for sensible routing.

For conventional paired wiring, combine the two Red conductors for one polarity and the two White conductors for the other, maintaining the same polarity at both ends. The approximately 11 AWG rating refers to each combined pair, not each individual wire. Follow the amplifier, speaker, and connector manufacturers' wiring instructions.

Check your application and connector fit

The 10.7 mm outside diameter and paired conductor size are important connector checks. Confirm that the entry, strain relief, and terminals accept the jacket and chosen conductor arrangement. Secure the outer jacket, keep loose strands clear of adjacent terminals, and test continuity and shorts before connecting equipment.

Choose cable length and wiring for the amplifier output, speaker impedance, and acceptable cable loss. Four conductors do not automatically suit every bi-wire, bi-amp, or bridged-amplifier arrangement. This is speaker cable, not a substitute for shielded microphone or instrument cable.
