Wiring Outdoor Speakers In Parallel

Connected in my kitchen, mudroom, and kitchen add-on, 2 ceiling Sonance speakers and parallel connected two dual input, 8" ceiling stereo speakers (left and right inputs to each speaker), for a total of 4 speakers, each rated at 8 ohms. At first I was worried that since all the speakers weren't Sonance, and with the dual input speakers in parallel, that the Amp might fault. But, the Amp handled the work with such ease. So Very Impressed! I Cranked it up for 2 hours on the first run - and the Amp barely became warm. Absolutely, highly recommend! Can't wait to buy more Sonos speakers for the rest of my home!

Works wonderful with our outdoor speakers.

Use this every day for indoor and outdoor speakers.

Love this amp as I connected it to outdoor speakers.

Great set of speakers, works perfectly easy to connect no excessive wiring. Sounds great!

I cannot say enough about how much I love my new Bose Ultra Soundbar! The difference between using the TV speakers and then this soundbar is like night and day. Watching movies and gaming sounds amazing, just as if we had a full surround sound system set up but without all the wiring and mess. On top of all of this, the soundbar is very sleek and modern looking. We had a football party and many of our guests commented on how nice it looks, as well as sounds. I would recommend this soundbar to anyone looking to have a wonderful surround sound experience without the mess of wiring and speakers.

Even though I have experimented with stereo systems for almost 50 years, I had never bi-wired speakers until I recently purchased Bowers & Wilkins 603 floor-standing speakers. I was intrigued by their bi-wiring option that Crutchfield suggested could provide noticeable improvements in the overall transparency of your loudspeakers if I ran separate speaker wires to the low and high frequency drivers from a single amplifier. After doing some research, I discovered the Canare 4S11 bi-wire speaker cable at B&H. I don't claim to have golden ears, but I do want better sound at a reasonable price, so the Canare cables were interesting. However, I have to admit that to my eyes they looked sort of flimsy in the online picture, so I debated with myself about spending over $130 for two sets of 10-foot cables. Therefore, I was thrilled to discover that the two runs I ordered are not only substantial in diameter, they are professionally terminated with high quality banana cables that give me a tight fit into my vintage Audible Illusions S120 amplifier and my new B&Ws. While I can't tell you that the heavens opened and angelic choirs sang when I plugged them in, the speakers sound wonderful and I am now looking at upstream improvements in my system, including the RME ADA-2 DAC FS. My conclusion is that it only makes sense to bi-wire speakers if the speaker designer provides the option. So for me this was a great purchase. If you have speakers that offer the bi-wiring option, I highly recommending giving these a look.

Building a new home and was contemplating wiring the whole house for speakers and this has saved me a ton of money and time. It also results in a better sounding system since it learns the room.

Really durable, thick shielding - and the length options are perfect for wiring speakers on either side of a desk.

I have this amp powering 6 Polk Audio 8" outdoor speakers.
