Philips speaker wires

Ok I bought some speaker wires.
Ran across these at Wal-Mart for $15CAN for 50' 16gauge. It was located in the electronics section. I went to my local audio dealers and they were selling wires for like $1-5 a foot!

Before I open it, do you guys think that this will work? will it be reliable?
Oh I forgot to mention. It's for my Infinity Reference components. I'm using a JBL P180.2 amp.
