  • This video shows how to convert regular speaker wire to AUX. Remember watts and amps when using this method. This is just how to show how to splice the two wires. If you have improper power going into the speaker you cannot power the speaker. For louder sound you need an amp, like i did in this video: • How to make a powered ...

    One way you could also do it is taking an RCA to AUX cord and cutting the RCA tips and doing it that way. It's what I did and it works gorgeously.
    The RCA to AUX cords are super duper cheap too.

      You can wrap them around and then cover them with tape but the solder is far more reliable and ensures the connection wont be lost. If the wires become unwrapped you will have to rip open the wire and do everything again.

    I am not good at anything that equals electronics. I have some old sony speakers from a surround sound. Is there any way to convert them into auxiliary or Bluetooth speaker's. I watched this videos but I still don't get it. Thanks no sense at all, plus I'm colored blind.
