Why does my speaker have 3 wires?
3 Answers. The size difference and rough casing on the center wire indicate that it's probably shielded cable. This takes the form of a braided wrap on the two speaker wires, and prevents the speaker from receiving interference, for instance from 60Hz mains wiring or transformers in the iPod player device.
What is a 3 conductor cable?
Three-conductor wire has two hots — black and red — and a white neutral. Though normally used for three-way switching, three-conductor wire is commonly used for duplex receptacle wiring as well. For a partially switched receptacle, for example, you would break off the tab on the brass side of the receptacle.
What are the 3 wires in a AUX cable?
3 wires often means: LEFT-RIGHT-(STEREO)-GROUND and 2 wires means: MONOSOUND-GROUND. Then as ^he says, POWERED or UNPOWERED? U cannot mix, powered goes with powered, unpowered goes with unpowered. There are rules.
Which wire is best for speakers?
Most of the best speaker wires are made from copper, since copper is a wonderful conductor of electricity. For the best quality wire, looking for something made with 100% copper is highly recommended.
