New member Username: FiatsterBaldwinsville, NY United States Post Number: 1 Registered: Sep-05 | I am a newbie at this and need some advise. I just bought a Onkyo HT-S780 system and have set it up. I have heard that the speaker wires should be upgraded. I did buy 16g for the 2 back speakers because the amount of wire that was included was not enough. I would like to know the sizes that would be best for the remaining 5 speakers. Thank you. Mike |

Unregistered guest | See the following link: http://www.roger-russell.com/wire/wire.htm#wiretable This gives you an idea of how long your speaker wire can be at a particular gauge before you start running into significant power loss (5% or more). Unless you have long runs of wire, 16 gauge is probably fine. |
