My girlfriend has a Sony "Executive Stereo" ;) with tape,CD, etc. There are two black(neg) and two red (pos) "slots" for the speaker wire. This is fine for the two speakers included. She has a second set of bookshelf size speakers that she likes because the screens are faux book spines. Can I attach them with the current speakers by running the wires in as well? i.e., two wires per "slot"? |

I've never felt the need to replace the setup as it is loud and clear with great bass. Left - Jamo & Kenwood Right - Jamo & Kenwood |

You will find impedance ratings on the labels and the math (and further explanation) can be found here: http://www.bcae1.com/spkrmlti.htm |
