Antagon Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 Stupid question, but how do I use bare wire to connect my speakers? When I put in the center of the binding post, theres nothing holding it in, it slides right out. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T_Shomaker Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 are you sticking the wires in a hole and does it unscrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_Shomaker Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 I thought that unless you had banana plugs then you could unscrew the things stick the wire in a different hole and then screw it down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antagon Posted January 17, 2004 Author Share Posted January 17, 2004 Yeah they unscrew like normal posts, but when I put the wire in the hole (like where banana plugs go) and tighten it, it just falls out.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antagon Posted January 17, 2004 Author Share Posted January 17, 2004 You mean the bottom hole where you would stick pins through? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_Shomaker Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 unscrew it and I think there is a different hole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antagon Posted January 17, 2004 Author Share Posted January 17, 2004 Yeah the one near bottom, i'll try that, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_Shomaker Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 that should be it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antagon Posted January 17, 2004 Author Share Posted January 17, 2004 Worked for the speakers, but the holes are far too tiny on the receiver end... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_Shomaker Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 what gauge wire are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antagon Posted January 17, 2004 Author Share Posted January 17, 2004 Good question, its Monster MC500, its a little over 1/8th of an inch thick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_Shomaker Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 all I can suggest is pulling some of the copper strands off on the reciever so you can use it right now then try to order some banana plugs for them later on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
