I'm planning on running 12 AWG wire for my home theater. Will these accommodate that size wire?

Yes, but, as I've mentioned: it's a hassle. I would recommend using MONSTER plugs, they're a bit more, but save you so much time!
62542
Yes, but I wouldn't buy them again. I found much better ones locally. These are far superior because instead of the screw clamping the wire, as the Sewell Pros do, these ones clamp the wire with a piston. Much more positive, heavier, stronger, better in every way. http://www.rpelectronics.com/370-322-10-banana-plugs-heavy-duty-8awg-gold-red-band-pkg-10.html

You will need to fold the wire over to get the screw to crimp it in place, but it should work.

They will accommodate up to number 10 AWG stranded. Recommend tinning the strands before use.

Hi,What do you mean standard speaker wire? if you use a bigger wire than original is better for the signal.

The wire is pretty big I do not know if it is 12 awg or not.Ibeleave it is 10 awg sutiable for 30 amp fuse

Yes only for the amp. The speaker wire you also have to buy. Id get 12 guage speaker wire.

Honestly, I'm not sure. I have a six seperate wires coming out of one comfortably. I can see 10 but 12 not sure. Maybe you should just do two side by side. Hope this helped you.

Yes any size wire any number of conductors as long as you connect to the same wire on both ends.

The gap down the centre of the speakers would be wide enough for this, I believe. It depends on the thickness of the housing of the cable. I run Sewell Slverback 12 guage through them, and these are pretty bulky, but they fit easily. Hope this helps

No, I have 12 gauge wire as well and it did not fit. I believe up to 16 gauge will fit in those stands.

I had to use 16 gauge because I had to feed four sets of wire through a very narrow space....speakers sound great. If you can use thicker, you should.

I've used them with 16 and 18 gauge wire. They work well with both, but I ended up using 16 gauge for my setup.

Just my own 2 cents worth thrown in here. I wanted to point out that as the number on AWG wire increases the thickness of the wires decreases.. 12 AWG is Larger ( a thicker wire ) then 16 AWG.

No anything will work. Just depends on how hard your gonna push them. I would recommend getting a pack of the banana clips that are 20$. Saves alot of time and wear on your fingers. And if your gonna push them as hard as I do your gonna want 12 gauge wire. But no smaller than 16 over 200watts. .

What's up Brandon.... I'd go with 12-16 AWG. The larger the speaker is the larger AWG.

Yes. I have 12 gauge wire and there is sufficient clearance for multiple runs (wires).
426491
Yes. There is a set screw that will hold 12 wag wire. I used monster cable and it has worked great!

My speakers have the near same 87dB, 8 Ohm, with 16G wire to them with 25 foot of wire so I hooked them together and ran it to one speaker and it sounded just the same. I think 16G wire will be just fine for your situation.

Yes. You can cut any speaker wire as many times as you please and they'll work as long as they're connected properly. Just make sure that the cable's length will be enough for what you need. You can use the following chart as a guideline to buy the proper gauge depending on the length of wire needed to connect the speakers to the amplifier/receiver:Length of wire needed - GaugeLess than 50 feet - 1650 feet or longer - 14
