I am running speaker wire from my amp to another room which is about 45 feet. What size wire do I need to run? Speaker are Polk M10 model.

Get some 12 guage speaker wire from Lowes or Home Depot. Cost about $ 0.45 per foot. This should be plenty!

This link gives you a good rule-of-thumb table on size of wire for various distances and ohm loads. The rest of the stuff in the article you need to take with a grain-of-salt and decide on your own from your own experiences.

Hey

I bought a harman-kardon 240, with 2 ea- monitor 60's and a cs 2 center channel.

My room where my system will be is 13x13, should the monitor 60's be behind me or in front corners? HELP need suggestions.

I'm hoping to make this my surround sound as this is a small room. Is there any other speakers I should get (cost a factor now). this is a 7-1 channel reciever.

What should i use for wiring

and what else should I ask you folks!!!

thanks
