Ran my wires from the bedroom outside thru the ceiling and down. A is inside, B are for outside. Been there for over 15 years and no problem. Mounted on outside wall under eaves.

We have ours connected to our onkyo txnr717 amp and it has a dual source. We pre-amped out to a secondary amp that runs our bose 151. Our secondary amp is an inexpensive (strdh100) sony that we are powering 3 sets of bose through a switching box.

I ran the Aux to RCA wire to the central hub for my ceiling speakers and then ran the RCA to Aux from the Logitech to my JBL Bluetooth speakers so I can just send the signal directly to the Logitech to power all the speakers, including the JBL with subwoofer. No lag at all and it sounds amazing throughout the whole house. I'm sure you could somehow connect your outdoor speakers that way.

You can buy this item XANTECH 291-10DBKit (which we sell for less than anyone) which will allow you to control this from inside a cabinet. I would honestly tell you for a few bucks more, the Denon AVR-X1100w is a far better buy (which we also sell)

You will need an audio out port of some kind on your receiver. I plug in wireless speakers to my tape out RCA Plugs on my receiver and plug into the transmitter. Newer receivers have no tape out port, so you'll need to see if there is an audio out jack. (3mm jack)

After more than 50 years of reading about, setting up, and listening to stereo systems, I've concluded that thick, lower gauge wires are unnecessary unless the distance between receiver and speaker is especially long. I'm willing to be convinced otherwise by blind tests, but I'm not aware of any. I use 16 gauge now and that is probably overkill, considering that many of my speaker wire runs are less than 10 feet. Do not buy high end (expensive) wire whatever the gauge.

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.

You will need extra wire as the don't give you long enough wire and you may need an adapter plug for your receiver. Bestbuy installed it for me even though I did not purchase it there.

You can't use 2 kits in the same room. In your case you need to purchase the Model 400 transmitter and Model 480 wireless receivers.

This unit does not include a wireless receiver. But, I'd think that your old receiver should wire up to this unit. It's a simple two wire hook-up.

I'm using my Royal speakers Wes 2000 900 MHz wireless with my SXABB2 portable speaker dock and a Onyx dock & play with the kit that's supplied. The speakers in my opinion work great, no feed back, or static. I guess you can use them with your receiver.

I see that the ohms and amps of the receiver meets the speaker requirements, so I dont see an issue with the combination. The speakers are good for any low end setup, check out others such as Bose, Definitive technology,Energy around the same price range. Listen to sound from these speakers, the preference varies from person to person, some look for low frequency specifically, some look for overall performance...it depends!

Hi Vaughn. It's difficult to answer your question without knowing a budget. The all inclusive "Home Theater In A Box" systems that have everything you need are something that I'm not very familiar with, so I'll leave that to someone else to answer. If you are willing to spend more, for something better, I really like Denon receivers and Amazon currently has two super deals: the AVR-X1000 for $299 or the AVR-X2000 for $399. Add decent speakers to either of those home theater receivers and you will have something very special. I personally favor NHT or Paradigm speakers and subwoofers. I would like to be more specific for you but there are so many other good brands out there and everyone hears differently... so, I recommend that you purchase what is pleasing to your ear. As far as wired or wireless... I used to be an electrician and am now a technical writer. I prefer 12-awg oxygen free wire, like Amazons offering: B00APEG9M4. But then I can run wire in my sleep and not everyone knows how to go through walls and ceilings. Oh, by the way, both of the receivers I mentioned require a hard wire to your router, which, is better than WiFi (unless your service provider offers a much more stable service that ours!). Hope this information helps. Enjoy whatever system you end up with!

I have a Pioneer a/v receiver and I had a Bose speaker system. Mine was an older system. Everything went through the Bose subwoofer so the wireless system could not be used with Bose. I now have Bose 501's in the front and a Bose center speaker but my subwoofer is not Bose. My wireless back speakers run off KEF wireless system. I am very happy with the KEF. I sent the system to them because I thought something was wrong with it. They trouble shot it and found nothing wrong. No charge, they sent it back. I found a bad connection on the back of my receiver caused by the DTV tech. I would check with Bose to see if this works with their system.Sorry I couldn't give you a yes or no.Mike I have a Pioneer a/v receiver and I had a Bose speaker system. Mine was an older system.

I'm using Bose series 5 speakers with my system, however the more important question is with your receiver. Assuming you have a model with front, rear and center connections you will have no issues. My receiver is a Denon AVR 591 two years old and the sound quality coming through the Bose VCS 10 is perfect.

Use your A/V receiver as a wireless hub. You then run cat 5 cables to other components. Good luck

you can hook these speakers up to a non-bose receiver or amp which i've done before. You'll have to do some tinkering with the speaker wires to make it work. These bose speakers require the new connectors whcih you can purchase anywhere on amazon. The other end of the speaker wire would have to be plugged into your receiver or amp with banana connectors or other terminal ending. It's definitely easier if you connect them to a bose subwoofer but it's not a requirement. Hope this helps.

I don't know what type of reciever you have). Most of the new ones onkyo and yamaha provide you with an app that automatically sets up the room for you. There is i believe a cd that does the same.
