18 Gauge Wiring


Ardent

Recommended Posts

Ok, I ran out to Radio Shack. Picked up 18 Gauge speaker wire and 1/8 mono plugs, solderless. They got some kind of tiny screws in there.

Anyhow, I spent like an hour doin the little screw things and attaching the wire to the mono plug... and guess what? It didnt work. Grrr!!!

Anyone know why? Is it the 18 guage wire? THe guy in Radio Shack said 16 was kind of big to fit in the mono plug.

Hell cant I just get a Mono extension cord for these rear speakers? Please help!!! Or Klipsh, please offer us longer rear wiring!!! ILL BUY IT!!!

Mostly cause I dont have soldering type equipment. And I dont know anything about that stuff. But it should be fine. I get VERY VERY low sound from that speaker.. I mean you cant even hear it. I dont know what the hell is wrong.

Make sure the wires inside the mini are not touching. Other than that, I'm not sure since I have not looked at the insides of a mini. I will probably just stick with the stock cable since they sound great already and I would rather save the money at this time..
