speaker cable connection

ebm8. I agree, I didnt order the speaker cable myself but I didnt make it clear to my brother who ordered the speaker cables to make sure the ends arent bare wire. I called the company where he got it from and the person said that he would correct it  without  charge. 

Bare wire is the worst connection good luck though.

I will. Thank you for the help. It is appreciated.

IN PHASE: always make sure both ends (amp and speaker), and both speakers are the same + and -

Thank  you, I appreciate your help

Copper to the red, silver to the black. With that cable. Either way as long as it's all the same way. BUT for ease copper / RED, silver / black. I'd use SOOW or SJOOW before that though.. 99.999 copper #18-8, pick your size.. US materials.. I use it all the time on passive sub cables.
