J.D.; do not buy expensive cables as there is no better sound quality from them. Buy 14 or less gauge cable from Radio Shack or other electronics stores. Including a link from Definitive Technology with additional information. you'll be very pleased with your speakers, specially the sweet bass they deliver. http://www.definitivetech.com/education/faqs

16 0r 18 gauge copper wire cables should be used. Buy a 100 foot roll, that should be enough.

I apologize for the late response but i have been very busy. i bought 14" gauge wire for my system. i really don't believe the brand matters. i would also recommend banana clips but they are also not necessary. when i get the chance i will try to include a link to the ones i bought.let me know if this helpsDex

The Instructions are a little confusing, I had to just go by what each wire does: I used Conventional Diagram! I also Double checked connections On the internet utilizing how my old one was connected & tagged the wires with the corresponding letters shown on the wiring diagram? I don't know if I have confused you more O actually helped you? Good Luck! =O)

If you go and buy your own hardware I think it should. If you would like me to email you some pictures if how I did mine I'd be happy too. The cable is good. It just the hardware you need to be concerned about. I think I spent a total of $60 on the hardware, lead, and this trolly.

I had a electrician tell me what to buy so I am not qualified to answer your question. Sorry.

I have mine hooked up with Component cables. I just got my sister an off-brand set at Gamestop for 15 bucks. I think the Nintendo ones cost 30, whichever one you pick will be worth it as it cleans up the picture very nice! Cheers

The cables you need should be on the power supply. If they are not, then it might be a good idea to update your Power Supply Unit. Adding a video card to a PSU that was not meant for it can cause system instability.

I'm not sure which wire but I do know that the system is junk and for me it was a big waste of time and money. Good luck with your.

Sergio.....I wish I could be of assistance to you. But this was a gift for a "techie" friend and have no idea re: the cables. My apologies and I hope you find the correct answer.

Yes, you will need the cable. I already had one...so what you see is what you get

You have to attach the wires of what ever cable you have. Most cables have 3 wires on them, a ground wire, a power wire, and a neutral wire. We have had ours for about 3 years with no problems.

HiWhich cable?If you are talking about the the power cable, you can buy it in a electrical store, just attention with the voltage and amperage, need be equal. But if the cable is to plug on home theater, you can find in a sound or musical store

12 gauge speaker wire should do the system justice (14 would probably be fine too, really)! I wouldn't go too crazy with brands or anything though. I hear they sell 12 gauge speaker wire of good quality at Lowes for just $0.27/foot. For the sub-woofer however, splurge for the monster cable connect for 30/40 bucks. You bought yourself a great system... you will not believe the unbelievable, precision sound. Best of luck my friend. -Eric

Peters answer is the best. If you are not a professional installer do not hassle with different types of cables and connectors.

Michael is right about the cables that you need. I would recommand gold plate RCA cables so you can get a better picture to your computer.

obviously for the price, you need to buy all your cables. same brand are cheap in price, but great in quality.

Hi there, I found out that all these cables are useless! Only the converter device worked for me! Of course I have not checked them with every equipments, but I wasted money on five or six different cables, and none of them actually worked for any degree of satisfaction! And I was too lasy to return them, mainly because I lost the track of them when I bought them and what was the name of the cable!
