6 speakers - Stereo ONLY- Outside hookup How?

Or a speaker selector with impendance matching along with a stereo receiver. The speakers should all be homerunned to the speaker selector. DO NOT wire the speakers in series (daisy chained).

What type of speakers do you have ?

Yes. I have 7.2 inside. I was gonna add another receiver specifically for the outside. Klipsch 650's for the outside

No! Never, ever wire speakers in series unless it’s a 70 volt system. Bad advice. Always home run speaker cabling.

Yea sorry I got carried away. The norm is 4 speakers on them...never looked to see if anyone ran more or lower ohms.

Another reciever would likely be cheaper just don’t know what you use for music or if that would be built in to that reciever. Also where is the reciever...inside or outside. Controlling the music and volume with that reciever if it’s inside. Those are all other things to consider. That’s why I like sonos stuff...I use my phone to control it all from anywhere.

So it sounds like a reciever would work well...maybe not for the sub. That’s another reason I like sonos. While it’s all spendy they have a wireless sub. I have one on my back porch and run 4 def tec speakers (off 2 sonos amps so I can control the volume independently) but I could run it off 1. The sub connects to the sonos network and boom put it anywhere you have power. Protect it from water and the sun. I have mine tucked in a corner behind a bourbon barrel. The difference it makes (to me) is worth it...any sub will be.

If still doing reciever, how far is it from the back porch. SVS (online company) makes a solid wireless sub signal option. I use one now for the 18s behind my sofa. You could then get a powered sub and link it wirelessly.

This is assuming you can not run a wire to the back porch. If you have access you could build a shelf up close to the ceiling to put the sub on and pop out your sub single wire to connnect to the reciever inside. Now it’s protected from the elements as well.

SVS = WAF

Wife acceptance factor

I tried the rocket fish ones fromBest Buy with dismal results. I was pretty mad because my electricians were supposed to leave a empty conduit in the slab so I could pass wires to hook up subs behind my sofa… But they did not.

Those SVS adapters have worked 100% perfectly. Not sure how far it can go but pretty sure you can return them if not.

Speakers are the 1 thing I told the wife that will trump all. I’ll do my best to make it so she can make it “pretty” but I have to like how it sounds first and formost.

So there’s this...the wife hates it because of the volume...so that means it’s just right

I told her we can make it not so frat house and turn it into a bench seat. It’s in the main gathering area so it will get good use.

Yes it comes with 2 boxes with obnoxious bright blue LEDs… Electrical tape but I digress

Remove the wire that goes between your receiver and the sub. The transmitter box plugs into the onkyo receiver in the same RCA plug that the wire was before. That transmitter box also has a power wire that plugs in to an outlet. Take note that power wire does not snap into the transmitter box very well so don’t force it looking for it to click in. Where the wire was plugged into the sub is where you will plug the supplied RCA wires from the receiver box into the sub. That receiver box has a power plug as well just like the transmitter box. That is what you can see in my pic.

Plug them in and they should automatically link with a solid blue light. Mine are maybe 20 to 20 feet apart, the transmitter portion is in a closet under my stairs with a closed door...no issue.

I just set these up a cpl months ago and absolutely love it. Haven’t fine tuned anything but it makes me smile bigly.

I don’t know if you ran something called Audyssey to get all your speaker levels matched up but you will have to run it again. With the sub being wireless it adds some delay so it will have to be accounted for and Audyssey should get it going.

never know where the answer lies.

I have a feeling it will work out well tho. I was not optimistic to be honest because the RF ones had this awful popping sound with the bass no matter what I did. So when I pulled the plate that was supposed to be hiding my empty conduit under the slab, and I saw they ran the romex power through it I came unglued

SVS been around and so glad they made those wireless units. The cylinders in my garage pics are from them about 19 years ago. They are not hooked up now...playing with the JBLs for now. Best Buy sale...$29 each ($100 off each)...grabbed 16 of them for you know...projects
