Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi DellOptiplex, thank you choosing and purchasing our product. We're sorry to hear that you have an issue with connecting wires on your SONY unit. Speaker wires that are anywhere between 12 to 16 gauge are most commonly used for connecting speakers to an amplifier or an Audio/Video (A/V) receiver. A lower-gauge number indicates a thicker wire, while a higher-gauge number indicates a thinner wire. Speaker wires with lower-gauge numbers are better at carrying an amplified audio signal.
