to connect these speakers to a receiver do I have to strip the speaker wire to connect to a receiver

No, you do not. The monitor speaker (that is the RIGHT speaker that has the docking receptacle on top) has "TV/Audio" input jacks right above the power cord. You can even use it as a PA system! The system rocks!

If the back of your receiver has ports to plug in your RCA then you dont need to strip the wires.

I'M NOT SURE WHAT YOU ARE ASKING!!! I USED REGULAR SPEAKER WIRE TO CONNECT TO FIVE EXTERNAL SURROUND SPEAKERS. THE SPEAKER WIRES WERE CONNECTED TO THE PROPER pioneer audio outputs on the back of the amplifier. The subwoofer came wit a single output cable that plugged into the back of the pioneer specifically marked for the subwoofer. Hope this helps.

No, you will need to get wire to connect them as well as a sub woofer cable. Search MEDIA BRIDGE on amazon I've have been using them for the past few years and have never been disappointed. Get a quality speaker cable there are several supplier on amazon.....I use Cmpl CL2 rated cable...its over kill but sounds AWESOME

No, you need to buy speaker wire and connect it to a receiver. Generally as part of a 5.1 surround sound system.

No, you need "pin" type wire connectors to match up with the spring type speaker connectors.

No, this is just the speakers, you need to connect them to a receiver (amplifier). The receiver probably will have a remote control, not the speakers.

Thanks for your question. You will need a receiver for these. It is a wonderful sounding speaker system.

The speakers are separate from the receiver. In fact, they do not attach to the receiver in any way. The speaker cables are rather short at about 3ft long.

There should be no problem hooking the speakers up to either Sony receiver. The speakers use standard speaker wire inputs. The speakers are great. I own or have owned different Klipsch speakers and find them to be the best sounding out there.

Wires simply pushed in to pressure clips fastened to back of speakers. You only need to strip about one-half an inch of the red/black normal speaker wires.

Yes, that's all you need to do. On most speakers, these wires are already marked and the two wires come off of the cross-over electronics board. On not too sophisticated speakers you just connect them in line, meaning you piggy-back off of the regular woofer speaker wires red and black. Most tweeters like these won't be damaged if connected that way as they have a good variance resistance, and they have a capacitor attached to one of the poles for protection. I use a couple of tweeters by themselves and work just fine. These I bought to replace some damaged ones in some speakers I bought used from a friend.

The only wires that go in the receiver must be stripped back to the bare wire.. You can always cut off the RCA plugs and hook it up that way

There is a set of RCA outputs for your subs, the purple antenna wire is the remote for the amp, there is a remote control connector, the remote control you have to buy separate , speaker wires and amp wiring are also separate... If you are replacing an existing receiver just reuse the old wiring to those speakers and such

You need a subwoofer amplifier. Connect the cable out of the receiver to the sub amp, then connect the speaker wires from speaker to the sub amp.

if your receiver does not have a dedicated subwoofer outlet then you will need a special wire. it's RCA to speaker wire, and it's kinda pricey for a wire. you would have to tie into the left and right speakers, or maybe even all sides of the surround. the quality might be diminished since it's trying to push all the frequencies through the speaker, and not just the lower bass frequencies. heres a link to the wire you would need.

Yes you can. I used banana plugs on the speaker wire that plugs into the receiver but not the speakers it self. You should buy thicker speaker wire too.

These speakers come with the appropiate wiring. The wire is directly connected to the speaker on one end, and have a speaker insert jack on the other...
