14 AWG speaker wire with waterproof quick disconnects. 12-foot pair, motorcycle-ready.
The Cicada Audio QDW1412 is a 14 AWG speaker wire kit with waterproof quick disconnects — 12-foot red/black pair with male and female waterproof connectors pre-installed for fast, secure, weather-resistant speaker connections in motorcycle audio systems.
14 AWG is the right gauge for most full-range and mid-bass speaker runs in a motorcycle system — enough capacity for high-power drivers without the bulk of heavier wire. The QDW1412 adds waterproof quick disconnects at both ends: male and female connectors that allow speakers to be connected and disconnected rapidly without exposing bare terminations to moisture. Useful anywhere a speaker might need to be removed for service — saddlebag lid speakers, fairing pods, lower fairings — and essential in positions exposed to water ingress.
Who This Is For
Builders running full-range or mid-bass speakers in Harley fairing, saddlebag, or pod positions who want a weatherproof termination solution with enough length for complex routing. For the standard (non-waterproof) 14 AWG option with quick disconnects, see the QD1412. For higher-current subwoofer runs where 10 AWG is required, see the QDW1012.
What This Is Best For
- Full-range and mid-bass speaker wiring — 14 AWG handles the current demands of high-power 4Ω and 2Ω motorcycle speakers without significant resistance loss over a 12-foot run.
- Moisture-exposed speaker positions — waterproof quick disconnect connectors protect terminations against rain, wash-down, and condensation in saddlebag, pod, and lower fairing positions.
- Service-friendly builds — quick disconnects allow speakers to be removed for service or panel removal without cutting wires or unwinding terminations.
- Marine, powersports, and off-road applications — suited to any high-vibration, moisture-exposed environment beyond motorcycles.
The Bottom Line
14 AWG, 12 feet, waterproof quick disconnects, male and female pre-installed. Weather-resistant speaker wiring for motorcycle builds. For standard quick disconnects, see QD1412. For 10 AWG waterproof, see QDW1012.
