If your run exceeds 200 feet, consider using a 12 gauge cable like this 2-conductor cable that is CL3 rated and specifically designed for the outdoors. If you plan to bury the cable, OSD recommends you bury it 4-6†underground so that it's not visible nor pose a danger of somebody tripping over it. Always use CL3 rated outdoor speaker wire which is designed for the outdoors and can can withstand extreme weather conditions like rain, snow and high temperatures and incorporate twice the insulation. These cables also use formulated white polyethylene jacket that is U/V resistant so it will stand up to the sun.
