Hi Linus,

Thank you for the interest! We recommend connecting wired speakers with a nominal impedance of 6 ohms to 16 ohms.  We also recommend using speaker wires that are anywhere between 12 to 16 gauge. These are most commonly used for connecting speakers to an amplifier or an Audio/Video (A/V) receiver.

Regards,
David
