speaker wire not speakers lol... speaker wire is speaker wire, the only thing that matters really is the guage.
what guage is it? if it was like 22 guage lol you might not want to use it.

no its some nice RCA(brand) 12 gague speaker wire... my dad found A LOT of it at work and it seems like really high end stuff... he also found RCA (connectors) from home theater systems... are those fine to use in your car as well?
