I found the speaker wire connectors on the back of these to be too big. How do I fix this?

slide connectors are fairly cheap, and you don't even need to solder them onto your bare wire, if you strip about a 1/4 inch from your wires from your head unit, all you do is slip the connectors onto the wire and crimp. i don't know if you are attempting to use the stock wiring harness or stock plugs/connectors, but this is was i had to do when installing in my honda. http://www.amazon.com/Gardner-Bender-20-145F-Terminal-Disconnects/dp/B000FKF7CG/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1416917612&sr=8-5&keywords=terminal+connectors&pebp=1416917644390 They will look like this, but you may need to get wider ones depending on the size of the terminal, I did this so long ago that I forgot what actual size I used. I hope this helps.

Try looking for a reset hole on the bottom of the speaker. A paper clip should fit in it. That cured mine.if not, try calling the customer service number. I found them surprisingly helpful and friendly - not what you expect these days. They answered several questions I had and solved the problem Good luck!

Yes, I have the same system, we love it, it's the best all-around system out there and these are the best stands for the money. When you hook the wire into the rear speakers use a 90 degree connector, you can get from radio shack or best buy. just show them the wire you are using and tell them you need a 90 degree connector. again the connector goes on the rear speakers and will be helpful when you install speakers to speaker stands. this will all make since when you go to install rear speakers. enjoy CWN

I tried to search for pictures of the speakers trying to see how they look from behind but i couldnt find any. If you want you can send me a picture of your speakers from the back and I'll compare them to the mounts/brackets and see if they will work. My email is fredward321@gmail.com

It's hard to answer your question without being there. You can follow the instructions again and recynk the speakers. If that don't work hard wire each speaker, if one don't workyou may have a defective speaker.

you have to match up the speaker holes, that is all. i am not familiar with your model.

No. If you're technically inclined and willing to take a risk, you could try splicing additional wire into the existing speaker wires, but the wires are very thin (high AWG, I believe around 28 AWG) so be careful.

I just unscrewed the terminal to expose the hole and threaded the speaker wire though it. Tightened the terminal back down and that was it.

you can easily crack it open and cut the wires going to the clearly visible pc speaker, then just pop it back together. did it on mine..i was afraid of it not fitting back together, but they're nice tabs that are meant to be opened up and put back.

Hi there, I bought the same brackets. As u noticed they will not work. I'm not sure what brackets will. How ever I did modify them by cutting out 4 pieces of wood each 4 1/2"x 4 1/2" about 1/2" thick. I drilled 2 holes in them to line up w/ the key holes on the back of the speakers. Inserted bolts w/ a head on them that would fit in the key hole. Then put stop nuts on the threads and the speakers hang great from them. I spray painted the wood brackets flat black. They look great! U would never know I had mcgyvered them. The system is awesome! U'll love it. Other then the same problem ur face'n right now. I faced it too, but an easy fix. Hope this helped, have a good one.

You will need to cut your harness and apply female connectors to plug into the male ends on the speakers. I would contact RF and see if they sell plug n play harnesses

Hi Drusilla Freeman-Daniels, you may check the wiring for your speaker. You can unplug and replug the cables coming from your speakers to their respective ports on the main unit. Hope this helps. -Ely

The wires detach from the unit but not the speakers--you would just need a connector. I haven't taken the back off the speakers, though--if you know what you're doing you might be able to detach inside, or splice.

Biggest speaker wire you can find.They need a lot of power to drive them properly. And the mounting clamp is huge, you'll need at least a 2" diameter speaker bar to clamp them on.

They have redesigned the speaker and they are slightly larger in diameter now. (closer to 11 inches in outer diameter) Do your research and buy only if you can easily return it if it does not fit your application. Was too large for me and I was replacing some older Fosgate 10 inch woofers. And as of this posting, the R-F website does not reflect the new larger size.

Look at the pictures and check the placement of your speakers. I actually returned mine because it was incorrect. You can also message the seller.
