Speakser wire connector I would like to use a better and longer speaker wire, but I noticed the Samsung is set up to the the prewired speakers w/ the plug in fittings. Does are anyone know if the fittings by themselve are available (like at Radio Shack) that can be soldered or crimped on to speaker wire? Also, are the rears wired the same way...I don't want to use the wireless.Thanks Speakser wire connector I would like to use a better and longer speaker wire, but I noticed the Samsung is set up to the the prewired speakers w/ the plug in fittings.

I also need help with this. My new home is wired for speakers but has standard speaker wire. Anyway to get the plugs for this system to add on?

Garrett- I went to a local stereo shop and bought a high quality speaker wire. But any speaker wire will work. The better the quality the better the sound though. Hope this helps.

FWIW-after replacing the stock terminal connector plates with good quality speaker wire leads try connecting the + (red) speaker wire lead to the top (+ hi freq tweeter section) and the - (black) speaker wire lead to the bottom (woofer section) to further improve detail and presence. Try it, you should hear a difference.

Any wire will do. I ordered the gold pin connectors and found them difficult to keep attached. I used regular speaker wire and it works just fine.

Agree with previous response. Unless your existing wiring is shot, just stick with it. Worst case you need to cut off the connectors and crimp/solder/splice in some new ends to fit the speakers.

Hi,What do you mean standard speaker wire? if you use a bigger wire than original is better for the signal.

If my memory serves me correct, the speakers didn't come with speaker wire. I bought a roll of medium gauge speaker wire. The thicker the wire the better the low end sound. I'm not talking about monster cable, but not the smallest gauge wire especially if you want to spread them out about twenty feet or more. I have about 15 feet of wire on mine.Hope this helps.

Brian,I'm sorry no one replied to your question. I only just got this system myself last night. You could not just plug your speakers in, because the system uses a proprietary method of plugging the speaker wires into small jacks on the back very similar to telephone jacks. You could splice the open end of the speaker cables to your existing cables, though! Not an optimal choice, I know, but a choice, nonetheless.Good luck!

Cannot say for sure. I believe sewell publishes a compatability chart. If not then Samsung may have a solution. Speaker specifies that it comes with wall mounting brackets. This unit is 36" in length and appears to have 4 mounting holes on the back. Conclusion is that it may be two large/ heavy for these Sewell brackets.

The connection points to the receiver are proprietary, the connection points to the speaker are hardwired. If the speaker blows you can splice a regular speaker wire to the connector and as long as the replacement speaker matches impedance you should be fine.

Standard speaker wire connections. Very simple. If you go to Infinity's website and look up the model it will probably have photos and or diagrams with all the details.

Regular (2 wire) speaker cable can be used to hook up speakers to the R-S500BL. The receiver speaker wire connectors are capable of accepting either banana plugs or bare wire. You can install banana plug ends on the receiver end of the speaker cable if you want to but it is not necessary.

Hi Ivan. Sure you can. The connectors are standard speaker wire. It will work like a speaker, but if you want it as a center speaker, be sure to get a receiver which will send a 3.x, 5.x, or 7.x signal. Also, to maximize this speaker it is a good idea to match power range (and rarely resistance of your wire expressed in Ohms). It's a good speaker. Enjoy.

No, I am using the stock speaker wire. However, I do plan to replace it soon as it is quite small. It works fine but tends to easily get pulled out of the spring clips on the speaker if tugged slightly. I plan to use a couple of gauges heavier wire.

I recently purchased the RC-Micro 5.1's and, being uninformed about audio stuff, have called their tech support on a few occasions. Each time I've called I've been immediately connected to a knowledgeable and patient adviser. 1-866-441-8208 is their number. I was told that a split cable is not necessary. A simple male-to-male video cable was recommended. Apparently, the video cable provides more protection against interference. Either of the two subwoofer ports are fine to use. The left/right thing doesn't matter in a 5.1 set-up. (By the way, you may notice that the manual offers a second method to connect the subwoofer using speaker wire. I was told this second method was irrelevant when creating a 5.1 set-up.) When I mentioned I might need a long cable to connect the subwoofer, I was advised to get an RG6 cable tv cable. I've seen this method confirmed on another forum. As far as speaker wire or the other speakers, I was advised to get standard 16 gauge speaker wire (Unless I was running the wire a long distance.) Still, I ended up buying 14 gauge wire from monoprice.com which seemed to be a respected speaker wire seller from what I read on the forums. For what it's worth, I was advised against getting tips or banana plugs and rather, to carefully insert the bare wire. Hope this helps.

There is a base port hole that extends a little out from the plane of the back panel, which would make the speaker sit off of the wall by about 1/4" (a bit less), and there is the indentation for the screw in posts to connect the wires. The thickness of the back panel must be at least 1/2", could be more like 3/4", however, and would allow a bracket to be mounted (screwed into the back itself). I have used screws that go into the back about 5/8", and went in solidly and made a strong connection. I hope this helps. If you think it would help, I could take a pic and send it. Let me know.

David Peter Meany, The Front and Center speaker wires are approximates 10 feet. The Rear Speakers have a length of approximately 35 feet. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products. --Mr. S
