The difference between audio cable and speaker cable
Audio cables and speaker cables each have their unique roles in the audio system. Audio cables are mainly used to connect music output devices (such as mobile phones, televisions, etc.) with amplifiers, transmitting low current, low-power electroacoustic signals. They usually come with a shielding layer to reduce interference, have a thin wire diameter, and have a variety of connectors. The speaker cable is used to connect the amplifier and speaker, transmit power signals, and has a large current, so there is generally no shielding layer and the wire diameter is thicker to ensure stable signal transmission. When choosing, it is necessary to select suitable cables based on the specific requirements of the audio system and the compatibility of the equipment. In short, audio cables are responsible for signal transmission, while speaker cables are responsible for power transmission, and the two cannot be mixed.
