Q:I bought Nexxtech Evolution series 16 gauge 30' wire to be able to bring my rear speakers farther back in my room. I have an Altec Lansing 5.1 speaker system with remote and all the speakers connect to the back of the sub. (front are red wire, center is blue, and rear is gray) they are all have the black wire and the colored wire. The wire I just bought are brown, and have a stripe of gray on the second wire (polarized wires) but the ones I bought are much thicker wire... will it still work to just strip/twist/tape the wires to extend the rear speakers? or did I buy the wrong wire? and also, how do I know which to twist with which? (the ones I bought aren't really that clear on which is which... which end is positive and which is negative).Answer quickly please!

incredibly, it could be greater advantageous to purchase the two yet another sub and an amp. the two-channel bridged at 4 ohms will purely output 380 watts RMS which would be divided between the two subs (a hundred ninety watts each). it incredibly is too low and you will no longer get lots thump. A 600-800 watt RMS monoblock could grant severe ability to 2 12 Kickers. an fantastic Kicker amp is the Kicker 08ZX750.a million which outputs 750 X a million RMS into 2 ohms. For driving in basic terms the sub you have, i could propose the Kicker Kicker 08ZX300.a million which outputs 3 hundred watts RMS into 2 ohms. And it incredibly is $40 off precise now at Crutchfield. the final answer utilising what you have is to circulate right into a mono sign to the amp. Use in basic terms one channel of the preamp outs and chop up it into the two amp inputs. Then twine each of your 4 ohm voice coils to a separate channel. the two coils popular will then be getting 250 watts RMS, nevertheless low yet greater advantageous than a hundred ninety.

Q:hey im wiring up a headunit to my L300 van. The factory headunit wasnt there and im having trouble connecting which colour wires to the factory colour wires. if anyone knows which coulours go to what would be much appreciatedcheers.

Hi, okorder /

Q:Where can I purchase small wire of a large quantity that is similar to wire on cellular phone chargers?The wire im looking for needs to handle no mare than 12 volts.

Belden is a good source, there are lots of other. But I suspect you want a multi-wire cable, not a wire. You need to specify the number of conductors, and the size of each. The 12 volts is not relevant. The insulation voltage is. Also, note that for long runs, you have to increase the wire size. .

Q:i have 4 wires going to a ac unit #10 wires 2 wires for each cir. and i need to know how many amps can I run with 2 #10 copper for one side of the breaker

10 gauge wire is rated for 30 amps unless its a long run. I'm not sure I'm picturing the right setup you're proposing in your description but if you're talking about having two 'hot' wires and two 'neutral wires' clamped together at both ends its a bad idea. It would make sense that you could run 60 amps through the wire if it was doubled up like that but because of [science] it doesn't work like that. Not to mention any electrician or inspector would be drawing exclamation points on their notepad if they saw a setup like that. If you need to run more than 30 amps just buy lower gauge wire.

Q:can anyone please tell me what does hook-up wire mean and how does it differ from other kinds of wires such as light duty and heavy duty?Also,which one should I use for breadboards?

Hookup wire is a term usually reserved for wire sizes smaller than 16 AWG, usually single strand conductor. It is generally used in applications where current-carrying capacity is not of prime importance. Breadboarding is one of these applications, but usually uses 22AWG or smaller wire.

Q:wiring kit, subwoofers

by wiring kit do you mean the amps power kit? some of which will include speaker wire for the subs anyway usually your amp will come with instructions that tell you what the minimum gauge is the amp will accept for power, this is the gauge power and ground cable you will want to get maximum power to the amp and to prevent overheating issues, typically amps under 400 watts rms power will do fine with 8 gauge, amps 400-1000 rms will use 4 gauge and 1000+ will use 2/0 gauge wire, for the subwoofer speaker wire you can never go too big gauge only too small, a kicker 12 gauge speaker wire will work for almost any application

Q:I changed my Sony to another car and am having problems wiring it back up. Any help on how to wire this ?

Judging from the fact that there's no CD/MP3/WMA/etc in the list of what you've got on your radio I'm going to assume it's an older one. I'm also going to assume that it's still new enough to have the now standardized wiring colors on it. Go to an installation shop and buy a plug that matches your cars year and make, connect the wiring on that plug to the one on the radio matching color to color. If there's no black wire (ground) on the car to radio plug you just bought that means you need to attach the black wire to a piece of metal that contacts the frame or firewall under your dash. If this wasn't helpful, please make a more detailed question or make me a contact and give me more detail.

Q:I know that there are wired routers, and wireless routers. Do wired routers do the same thing as wireless routers, without wireless capabilities?

Most if not all wireless routers also work wired! Nearly all of them have at least four wired ports. The access point is the wireless connector, it just connects wireless capable machines to the exact same point within the router as the wired plugs do. A Wired router does not have the internal access point. With a wired router you can add wireless ability by simply adding an access point to them. The AP (access points) cost about as much as a full wireless router so you don't see them used very often but they are available. All the wireless does is eliminate the need for a local cable. Really that's all it does. Any computer connected to a router is connected to the router, wired or wireless makes no difference, although as a general statement the wired machines will be faster! So yes wired and wireless routers do exactly the same thing, they route local traffic for several machines to one broadband connection.

Q:I just installed a Unity Spotlight on my 2007 Chevy Impala. There's a 6 inch wire coming out of the handle. When I stripped the wire there is a few strands of copper wire. How do I wire up the light? There isn't a distinct positive or negative.
