Klipsch Employees Trey Cannon Posted June 6, 2008 Klipsch Employees Share Posted June 6, 2008 The RF product will need connectors on the wire to use a 12 awg wire. USe 14awg it will fit better. Most any stranded wire will do. http://www.amazon.com/Coleman-Cable-100-Foot-Extension-02409-88-04/dp/B00004SQEX/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=hi&qid=1212755209&sr=1-1 this will work, just cut the ends off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colterphoto1 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 to buy speaker wire: 1. go to hardware store 2. buy wire that's it. ok, 16 or 14 gauge twisted zip or lamp cord in copper is what you're looking for. That's it. Woven yak hair wires will not help things one bit. The electrons don't care and can't read fancy labels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill222 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 For my money, monoprice.com was cheaper than the local Lowes or Home Depot - even after shipping. And my Klipsch speakers and Aragon amps don't seem insulted at all by the cheap but well-made copper wire used to connect them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
