[QUOTE="SPL Blazer, post: 4523076, member: 587873"] It's mostly cause of the brand name and the pretty colors they want you to buy. Car audio wire normally has a higher thread count to make it more flexible. Oxygen free wire is better than tinned copper, but I don't think you'll see tinned wire in welding wire. I've known guys to run both kinds of wires, some said they welding wire was better, some said it wasn't. I'd say if it's cheaper for you then get some. You should be able to find a larger gauge welding wire for less money than some of the car audio wire. [/QUOTE]
