I am looking for a receiver just like this, except one problem .... my speakers end in wires not plugs. Any suggestions ?

Buy Banana plug if you want them: http://www.amazon.com/Soundsoul-Connector-Banana-Plugs-Screw/dp/B0093F4ROI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1391610542&sr=8-1&keywords=banana+plug Or just use your wires as they are... the binding posts will also accept bare wire.

How do you bi-amp a speaker from one source? Can you give an example of a receiver with this feature? Does one need to buy an extra amp?

What I'd seriously do is find one in the flesh and look carefully at the back. Now I bought one of them and wasn't too keen about it so I got one from another party for my shop with an equalizer For the house I looked and got a pioneer vex 51 series because its one of he last ones with stereo jacks and maybe at the older pioneer Yamaha Sony receivers and get a Pyle pro eq like I did outstanding sound Hope this helps so let me know.

I recommend a good heavy duty speaker wire with banana plugs. Search Amazon in speaker wire with banana plug ends. On the sub, I use a Yamaha 10" which is somewhat overkill for the Polk speakers. I've been using juat the two Polk speakers on their own and the bass from these speakers is crazy. I turned off the sub since the bass was too much with both.

I do not actually have this receiver. but, now that that is out of the way, thought i still might be able to help. generally, the protection circuitry shuts the unit down when there is a problem with speaker wiring, like a short or miswire, that's what i would check first, another possibility is you have a damaged cable, like the hdmi is messed up internally, try swapping in a different cable after you check the speaker wires. hope this helps!

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.

Hey, I had the same problem--you just need an RCA adaptor. Such as a speaker system that you can plug it into.

Hi,The exact same thing happens to me. We tried to save some money and go with these Bluetooth speakers rather than the old fashioned receiver/hookup wiring throughout the house. In hindsight, it was a bad decision. Wish I could help but we haven't been happy either.

Please consider getting a receiver with a Sub-out. The sound quality will be improved beyond your wildest dreams.

Are there RCAs? If so, make sure that they are plugged in correctly. Also, with this harness I assume you will have separate speaker wires. Make sure they are colour coordinated and connected like-to-like.

Honestly, buy a new receiver. You need this, and then you can continue using the speakers you have. Trying to do this any other way is not a good idea, and will end up costing you the same amount of money and continued frustrations on lack of HDMI inputs and outputs.

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.

The L830's should work well with a good vintage receiver. BTW, found that replacing the stock terminal connectors (the plated jumper strips linking the two sets of wire inputs) with short leads of good quality speaker wire further improves overall detail. Try it, you might like it.

Question about the B speakers. I have the right settings to make the B speakers work (thanks for that info) but there is on on set of lugs for the B speakers so they don't play in stereo. (I put both speakers on the one set of B lugs.) Is there another way the B speakers should be wired?

Is your 3.5 mm connector stereo?, even if it is I'm guessing there are inexpensive adapters (probably @ Radio Shack) that will convert a 3.5 mm plug to either 2 wire (mono) or 4 wire (stereo). Pay attention to wire polarities (+ & -) as traditional 2 wire speakers connections are + & - , even if the wires are connected backwards the speakers will still work-- result you will be driving them backwards & they will not sound as clear. Solution, just reverse the wires. Good luck

Probably time to upgrade your sub. Most receivers use a lfe port to connect your subthis unit doesn't offer high frequency connections for subs. Only to your speakers.

I had a similar problem. All you can do is cut the wires and splice in 4 meters worth of speaker cable. It's what I did, and i did not notice any loss of fidelity.
