do these have a simple positive and negative post for old style speaker wires?

Yes, they are the male connectors or post on the speaker that you slide a female connector from your wire on to very simple.

Nope bare speaker wire works too. Thats how mine is rigged up. Sounds great on a pair of decent bookshelf speakers.

there is a red and black round screw clip, similar in size of a small thimble, just unscrew one turn, wrap the speaker wire around the post and then tighten back down the screw. easy to do, I didn't need to use my college education to connect the speakers...hope this helps ya.

No, bare wires are fine, unless you prefer the convenience of using plugs to connect and disconnect the speaker wires. How often do you do that? The terminals are designed to secure bare wires. I bought a box of banana plugs and wind up returning them unopened.

Typically anything with binding posts is able to accept both wires and banana plugs but I don't remember. I bought these speakers because a client HAD TO HAVE BOSE but I normally don't recommend or install Bose. I only use them when you already have 5 and need a sixth one or when you have several speakers and one is broken or needs repair.

Yes you can. Just cut the wire and put positive to positive and negative to negative. Source: I did something similar like that before

Wires simply pushed in to pressure clips fastened to back of speakers. You only need to strip about one-half an inch of the red/black normal speaker wires.

It matters how the wires are made.... If the wires are of a ZipCord, then the Ridge Side is Always Negative. The Round / Smooth Side is Always Positive. If the wire is Black and hooked to AC, then the Wire is Positive and White is Negative. If the wires are Red and Black (for DC Purposes), then Red is Always Positive and Black is Always Negative.

Wires. They have the screw-type of connector consisting of a threaded post and a knurled thumb nut. You screw out the nut revealing a hole through the center of the post. You feed the stripped speaker wire through that hole and tighten the nut. Simple and sturdy.

Wires hook to the posts on coil , one side is negative and other side is positive

Hi David. These are speakers with standard 2 wire ( red and black ) terminals that screw down on the wires. They are very nice great sounding and designed to add to an amplified speaker system. I added to my samsung home theater and they are just what the doctor ordered. Hope this all helps in your quest for speakers.

Nope. They all have wires, which makes the rear speakers a bit of a challenge to install unless you don't mind having a lot of wire running across your living room. Still, they are a good value and nice speakers.

They have binding posts. Use bare wires or banana plugs.But understand that you do need an amp.

Well technically yes i guess lol. but they do not plug into the wall as i assume your asking. all that is on the back is one Red and one Black terminal for pos and neg speaker wire.

I have no problems at all with these speakers. Make sure you get the polarity correct or you'll lose your bass response.

Yes, these are standard wired speakers. Latest and greatest sound systems today use the same "old fashioned wire system". Just saying.

Yes just attach each wire to your positive and negative leads or sauter the connections to the positive and negative leads in the socket. Choice is yours
