I am working on developing my basement right now, and it is split up into two separate rooms, a computer room (wee, only 6' x 9') and my home theater room (10 x 14). I am just about to start wiring the computer room for sound. (I figured that I should get some practice before I get to the theater room) and I have a but of a problem.
I bought the Logitech Z5300 5.1 speaker system for my computer room and they all connect with rca connects. I am planning on putting in wall wiring in the room with outlets around where I want the speakers and then cut down their cables and have them mounted nicely on the walls. (I want as much wife approval rating as possible)
But the problem is that if I go with the rca wall jacks, the ones that I have seen at Home Depot are just a double ended female rca jack with a pretty face plate. I am planning on using 14 gauge speaker wire, and I don't know how to connect the speaker wire to the back of the rca female jack. Are there decent quality connectors that I can pick up somewhere or do I have to drop a bucket of money to get long rca cables?
thanks
