Hi, I don't know much about wiring but I am trying to connect a subwoofer up to a receiver in my new house with prewired 5.1 cables. The sub cable doesn't have a connecter on it so I was wondering if anyone knew what I would need (tools, connecters, etc) to connect a rca type connecter onto the cable? I bought some cheap solderless rca plugs from here: http://www.radioshack.com/family/index.jsp?fbx=0&allCount=337&cp=2032058.2032231 &fbn=Price%2FUnder+%243.99&f=PAD%2FCable+Type%2FPlugs+%26%23038%3B+jacks&fbc=1&c ategoryId=2032280&fr=StorePrice%2FRSK%2F00000000%2F00000399&pg=2 but they were much too skinny to get around my thick subwoofer cable. Also, does anyone know a reference where I might find some information about how to actually attach the plug onto the cable?
Thanks in advance!
