Can I swap out existing keypads for these as long as they are Cat5? Speakerwires feed independent to amp right?

I would assume you can switch the keypads as long as they are the same system keypads. The speaker wires are home-run back to the wall plate near the amplifier.

Absolutely! The power, ground and remote on are all in the same quick connect. Signal input (speaker or RCA type) are another connection and there's one plug for the remote gain level control. Unplug these and it is ready to come out. Takes less than a minute to disconnect.

Yes, you can. Think of this system as an invisible wire to your speakers. You hook the speakers themselves to the receiving units with speaker wire, just like they were at the back of your sub. Then at the sub, you hook the wires from the transmitter in the old spot where you pulled out the original wires that went to your back speakers, and it should work like a charm.

Yes you can. That's exactly what I did with mine. Spliced the speakers wire from all 3 speaker terminals together & connected them to my center channel input on my amp. Great center channel speaker!

Hi, not quite sure, my question to you is how old is your speaker wire...what gauge..any green anywhere on those conductors..did you do any splices anywhere even the signal wire for a double sub setup has to be done right double check every input jack for wear at the strain reliefs. Hookup one set at time and test at each add

You would have to cut off the two little speaker plugs, strip each of the four wires back half and inch, separately twist the strands for each wire, and plug those wires into the amplifier's speaker connections. There is a picture on the Amazon ad for this amp that shows the back and what the speaker connections look like. This is not complicated but you have to end up with the wires from one speaker going into the amplifier's left two speaker connectors (+, -) and the other speaker wire going into the two right speaker connections (+,- do not matter much in small systems, but if the speaker wires are color-coded then you may as well match with the "+" and "-".).

There isn't a line out or DI output built in, so I'd have to say no, it won't work going direct to your console...unless you run one of the speaker outs (there are two, and you can select 16, 8 or 4 ohms resistance) into an attenuator that also has a DI built in...that way, you would provide the needed resistance for the amp (so you don't kill it) and be able to go direct while cutting the speaker output and keeping the tonal coloring of the amp. Hope this helps!

They are not able to be daisy-chained per se, but you could connect two to your pc/Mac, and your DAW would allow you to assign each input to a seperate channel.

Yes. As a matter of fact, they include new wiring pigtails that I did not use. I left the original pigtails in place and connected the new switches to them, which simplified the work.

I wouldn't, it sounds like it should work but speaker switches are inexpensive and they have resisters in them. I read a old article on having 2 sets of speakers on 1 amp and I think they said you fed one threw the other. I don't remember how they said to do it I think they said you go from positive of the amp to positive of the 1st speaker form the neg. of the no.1 to pos. of 2 and from neg of No 2 speaker to neg of the amp. Bottom line is get a speaker switch better safe then sorry.

Typically anything with binding posts is able to accept both wires and banana plugs but I don't remember. I bought these speakers because a client HAD TO HAVE BOSE but I normally don't recommend or install Bose. I only use them when you already have 5 and need a sixth one or when you have several speakers and one is broken or needs repair.

yes you have to put your own ends on and use the straight through design connections the premade cables wont work. Put your own ends on i used the EX-RJ45 from amazon they allow you to push the wire out the end so you can double check position of color code wire . The main difference between 5 and 6 is wire size i have 8 cat5s it carries both power and sound but since i didn't use the sound on some it gave me an extra video connection I used the 2.5 power adapters to make a power tee connection this saved me from running extra cat5

you hook this to your stock door speaker wires to give you the low output for an amp without high level inputs. so you would not hook this to the stock sub wires. it would go to regular speaker wires.

If you ever hooked up speakers wires before then you can do this. The connectors are color coded red,black right and left this is easy to do.

No, these are are replacement speakers and will work as is. You might want to use adapters for the wire connections if space is limited. It makes the installation easier as you don't have to splice the wiring.

You'll still be able to use the surround outputs, but not the ones bypassed by your amp

Your existing remotes (and wireless keypads) will still work without reprogramming. This keypad replaces your existing wired keypad. You can't add this in parallel with a wired keypad. I tried it and it did not work reliably. If you have a wired MyQ keypad already, you can just buy a Chamberlain CIGBU MYQ Internet Gateway.
