Hi all,
First, let me say thanks again for the help you all have provided on a previous question about widescreen vs standard.
I eventually plan to upgrade my "starter" speakers (Sony micro speakers) so I bought a roll of Monster speaker cable yesterday to run to my front left and right speakers. My question is...what is the best way to make the connection to the speakers (and to the A/V receiver for that matter). All I did for now is to make sure the cable was twisted as tight as possible then stuck it in the clip connectors on the back of the speakers and receiver. The factory (cheap) speaker cables at least had the ends soldered so they were not "frayed" with individual wire strands sticking out when you stick them into the spakers but I wasn't sure if I should solder the ends of the Monster cable or not. I did make sure the strands were not touching the other wire etc.
When I upgrade speakers, should I use some other method of connection or is there some other method I should use even on my cheapo speakers?
Thanks again for the help...
