I just got my CSi40 finally! From Circuit City ($150!!!!!)

I'll be getting my RTi70's from Criverajr sometime next month. My question to you is what connections to go with. I alrady have speaker wire (and I know it's not the best) but I would like to know which bananna plugs you guys reccomend for the best price and quality?

Thanks in advance guys.

It feels sooooo good to take my DINKY **** RM6200 Speaker Set Center Channel off my TV and put up that BIG **** CSi40! I know it's a small purchase, but it makes me so happy! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

    Very nice center, you have stepped into real audio now.... :D
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    Thanks guys...this is starting to really shape up. I've got almost all of my speaker purchases made and them come the FXi50's last.

    Still need a new reciever, AMP(S), DVD Player and wires.

    Also...I asked in my first post about bananna plugs...which ones do you guys recommend for Value & Price? :confused:

    Go to Rat Shack and pick up some of their compression fit bannanas. I use them and like them. The wire is flared through the bottom and as you screw down the top the wire is pressed along the top edge of the bottom piece bottem edge of the top. Sit I need a drink after that 1 :rolleyes:

    Nice speaker BTW(a MONSTER) with a GREAT price.

    Cool. I'll snatch some of those guys up.

    How do I bi-wire these things? :confused:

    I don't mean to be a nag, because I know this has been discussed a thousand times or more, but I'd like to hear it from a fellow Polkazoid's keyboard. :cool:

    I have one of them for my center. You will like it very much. Great deal you got on it. I don't have mine bi-wired, but I am considering it.

    I ordered these for the whole system:

    They seem to be working very well for me. They are gold plated and fit quite snugly. If you want to go a little nicer, you could try these ( they do cost more):

    They came in a few days.

    Just a thought...

    I would do it for sure, but I nabbed the last one. I guess I could go back and see if they still have their floor model..?
