How Long are the rear speaker wires? I'm really looking into picking this system up but I'm just wondering about how long are the wires for the rear speakers. Can anyone help me out?

I already have my wires ran in the wall and through the attic, can I use those for these speakers?

Brian,I'm sorry no one replied to your question. I only just got this system myself last night. You could not just plug your speakers in, because the system uses a proprietary method of plugging the speaker wires into small jacks on the back very similar to telephone jacks. You could splice the open end of the speaker cables to your existing cables, though! Not an optimal choice, I know, but a choice, nonetheless.Good luck!

In my recollection the wires are directly hard wired into the speaker side. They would require some type of splice though they are bare wired with spring posts on the stereo side. Really thin wires at that. Possibly 22 gauge or smaller.

Yes, it does come with wire, but not enough for a large room. You might consider getting an additional length of wire for the rear speakers if you have a large room. It will give you more flexibility in speaker placement.

Not sure of the exact lengths, but maybe 20' for the rear speakers? This comes with longer wire for the rear channels speakers and a shorter one for the center. Just buy more speaker wire and splice it if it isn't long enough for you...

There is wire from the unit about 3 or four in. And the speaker that is longer, you might have to splice it to make it longer for where ever you mount it. But it pretty basic hot,ground,speakers and radio antenna. Go for it their nice and plenty loud

The speakers are wired. I don't know how long the wires are, I'm not using it at the moment. As I recall, however, they're pretty standard.

No the rear speakers are not wireless the wires for the rear speakers are approximately 20ft long

I needed to buy more speaker wire for one rear speaker. Can't recall exact length..

Great choice of speakers. I d say as long as the oem speakers are same size. Then yes. Go for it! ! I'd pull one out n approximately measure old one. Then go from there. One thing to make job easier I'd spend the extra n buy the aftermarket to Oem speakers adapter harnesses. Not that expensive n will be able to leave existing wires uncut. Which is huge plus for later down the road n ya wanna sell vehicle ya can put the old junkers back in.. With out splicing!! Goodluck. Jam on!! Hope this post helps.

The end of the wire that is provided to connect the speakers to the rear WiFi unit is fairly long to start with. The end that goes into the unit is a proprietary plastic plug, so no way to do it at that end. The other end, however, that goes into the speaker ends in a normal, two-wire, twisted pair. I would think that you could carefully splice extra wire in at that point and then run the new wire as far as you need it to clip it into the speaker. Hope this helps. Love the sound! Happy Thanksgiving. Ed

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.

Did you ever get an answer or solution for this? I purchased 12 gauge speaker wire but have not installed it yet. I can return it if need be. Thanks!

Speakers are not attached physically to the central unit. The speaker wires appear to be about 30-36 inches long, and could probably be extended with additional wire without much sound degradation.

I own two sets of these speakers. I use them for the rear surround 5.1 systems. I think they sound good high and low end maybe a little more on the low end but they are still clear on the high end. I don't know of any set of speakers that can match them for the price. Mow to figure out how to get them without UPS damaging them in shipping? Both sets had shipping damage by the time they got to me.DNS

Are you talking about the stock speakers? If so yes they are. It took 10 mins to remove old and put new back. Plus the sound is great. Exact fit!

We used 14 gauge speaker wire. On back of speakers used positive wires (could be red, white or striped) into red clip slot, and negative into black clip slot. On our receiver there are wire nuts that the wire (as above positive on red and negative color on black wire nuts) There should be an area indicating surround sound, rear speakers) We had a diagram that came with receiver that showed which speakers went to each jack and wire nuts) Hope this helps. Hope you have a diagram in your receiver book, that helped us or we would have been lost.

Unfortunatly that was why I returned the unit. I can't say for sure how long but I already had cable running through my ceiling for surround sound and couldn't use the rear speakers unless I spliced into the cable and added cable lenght. the wire comes directly out of the speaker and has a connector already mounted. You could cut in the middle and add lenght but I chose not to do that.
