Convert speaker wire to AUX 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: http://vilook.com/video/dFU8SKf-lQk&t=1sHere is a good small speaker: http://amzn.to/2xXg1ivHere is some good speaker wire: http://amzn.to/2fQWQk5Here are some wire splitters: http://amzn.to/2yGArKgHere is a great AUX cord: http://amzn.to/2kkMA55Check out every product that I review or I recommend in my videos here on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/shop/jroblingKeywords: how to convert regular speaker wire to AUX auxiliary cable left negative positive red copper blue black not working shell case casing#howto #diy #wiring

hey green red and the ground how do i connect it to a speaker?
21/05/2019 03:58
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.

What if i have 4 car speakers to put in garage, then use the aux cable to use with iphone. Is it the same principle? So i would have 2 sets of wires, instead of 1: left 2 speakers and right 2 speakers..how would i wire that?
23/03/2019 03:01
i think there are so much better ways to do this and to get a decent sound from an amp.
23/02/2019 07:53
07/02/2019 09:05
But speaker needs power also. My advice is that first open thw speaker. Then there are two power wires which you directly put in socket and the other two you connect like this only as shown in the video . It will perfectly work. My gaurantee.

Needed to connect a (Aux Cord only Subwoofer) to a wired stero system and Thanks to this, My Sound Is Krystal
24/01/2019 19:39
Why not just get the correct cable for your tutorial, rather than spending 1/2 the time explaining why it is inferior, and the one shown, should not be used?
13/01/2019 18:22
Worked for me no problem but the sound was low so reading the comments I need a amplifier. So I'lol try that. Good speakers that I hate to just throw away

Maybe you should use a speaker that has a volume button thst works much better
10/10/2018 02:17
If I want to use two speakers how would I configure the wires? could I just attach the speakers' wires together (positive with positive, negative with negative) and then do the same thing?

Super bro...Great..When i plugged in the next second it started to play alod..SUPER ..THANKS.
11/05/2018 13:10
This won't work cause your phone or whatever device powering the speaker doesn't have enough power to make the speaker play at the volumes which it is capable of. Which means you'd have to attach an amp which obviously is recieving power from the wall socket or car battery to boost the volume. The music will now be capable of being louder but the song will get distorted the louder you turn up that speaker because the different wave lengths in the song are all playing on the same speaker at the same time... you're wasting your time with this.
25/04/2018 06:12
22/04/2018 23:10
You might want to mod in an amplifier.. That would be cool..

u burn them its easy so u hooked it up and it wasnt working. then u cut the video and figure out what to do. but next time just get the aux that is all black and have a look to it as a cord like the power cords on tv irons and fans they have aux cords that comes like those thats all u have to look for we you want to make sure you get the right ones. remember they just have a cords that looks like a regular cord that goes like a tv cord are any other thing that u have to plug in. ok hope he didnt confuse yall to much. hes on the right track though
20/03/2018 01:01
you sould of used a normal aux cord with just the two wires in them cost a little more but way better connection and its just two wires like black and red and thats it

26/09/2017 06:52
I am thinking of ordering a loud speaker for my mini storage, I see there are some apps that auto answer on the phone so I was thinking of connecting an aux cord to the loud speaker that will be mounted outside on the roof or whatever and the cable and power will run down into a unit where the phone will be plugged in all the time and the speaker will be connected to the phone at all times. That way if I see something fishy on my cameras, I can call the phone on site, auto answer will pick up, and then I will be able to turn on an alarm sound/or speak over the line to say the cops are on the way. Would something like this work or am I not seeing something? Any input would greatly be appreciated. I am just thinking of the cheapest way to go about doing something like this. thanks

red and black arent positive and negative in your example. one is left positive and one is right positive with a common ground. You cant twist a positive and a negative together. that is called a short. what you did is bridge two stereo channels together to make a mono channel.
07/08/2017 11:56
I did this but the specker is not going loud enough

Its gonna break the charging circuit or something in your phone.
Our comprehensive Maxima Stereo Wiring schematic will show you where the speaker wires are and what wire color you need. Third Generation Maxima Stereo Wiring Diagram (1988-1994) The last generation of boxy Nissan Maxima, the third generation Nissan sedan used the center console style reminiscent of the 240SX.
There are many factors that work against quality car audio. The biggest culprit is road noise, competing with and canceling out critical audio frequencies. As this noise forces you to turn the volume up, you'll quickly find that your in-dash radio's small amplifier runs out of steam. The solution is to add an amplifier, dramatically infusing your speakers with plentiful, clean wattage.
Parts and Preparation
Before removing even one screw or panel from the vehicle, assemble all of the tools and parts you'll need for the project. You'll need Phillips, Torx and Allen screwdrivers of varying sizes, so a universal screwdriver with interchangeable tips is a good idea. Wiring tools include a socket wrench and inserts, combination wire stripper and crimper, self-tapping sheet-metal screws, cordless drill with Philips-bit attachment and rough-grit sandpaper. Installation parts include an RCA cable long enough to reach from the radio to the designated mounting location, insulated crimp rings, insulated T-tap connectors, 4-inch plastic zip ties, 4-gauge power and ground wire, 16-gauge primary wire and 16-gauge speaker wire and inline fuse holder with fuse.
Preliminary Steps
Examine the internal fuse values of the amplifier. Purchase a fuse to snap into your inline fuse holder matching this value. This fuse protects the power wire leading through the vehicle, preventing a fire in case of a short circuit. Locate a mounting spot for the amplifier away from foot traffic and seat rails and providing at least 3 inches of space around the unit for ventilation. Locate a wire bundle under the hood that leads from the engine bay into the cabin of the car, and find where it comes out under the dash. You'll use this for the power wire. It's also a good idea to secure a schematic of the vehicle, detailing where each screw, panel clip and wire is located in the car. These are available online or from your dealer.
RCA and Remote Leads
Nissan Speaker Wire Red And White Dress
Consult your car's wiring schematic to locate the screws holding the radio into the dash bezel. Remove these screws and set them aside in a cup holder or a zip-top baggie. Carefully pull the radio from the dash. Locate the RCA output jacks on the back of the radio. Slide the RCA cable into the back of the stereo from behind the radio cavity. Remove the side sill panels securing the edges of the carpet to the vehicle. Feed the RCA cable through the wire channel in this gap to the chosen amplifier mounting spot. Locate the blue accessory wire leading from the radio's wiring harness labeled 'ACC.' Cut a length of primary wire long enough to reach from the amplifier's mounting location to the accessory lead. Strip 1/2 inch of insulation from both ends of the primary wire. Crimp the spade portion of the T-tap connector to the bare wire. Clip the hinged portion of the connector over the ACC wire leading from the radio. Slide the spade into the slot on the hinged connector, then route the wire along the same path taken by the RCA cable.
Power Wiring
Open the hood to the vehicle. Remove the nut securing the black ground wire from the battery. Remove the nut holding on the red positive lead, but do not remove the wire from the battery. Cut a length of power wire that can reach without tension from the battery terminal to the amplifier's mounting location. Cut a smaller length less than 18 inches long. Strip 1 inch of insulation from both ends of the shorter cable and one end of the long lead. Crimp a ring terminal to one end of the short lead. Slide the ring over the post holding the positive battery lead, and secure the nut holding the leads in place. Insert the other end of the short lead and the stripped end of the long lead into opposite ends of the fuse holder. Secure these wires by tightening the Allen screws inside the holder over the wire strands. Slide the other end of the long lead through the grommet protecting the wire bundle you identified during your preparatory steps. Imperium universalis 1.3.1 download. Pull the power wire through carefully. Route this wire under the opposite door sill used for the RCA and remote turn-on lead to the amplifier's mounting spot.
Ground Wiring
Locate a section of sheet metal within 18 inches of the amplifier's mounting location. Sand the paint at this spot down to bare metal until it is clean and shiny. Cut a length of ground wire 18 inches or less. Strip 1 inch of outer insulation from each end of the wire. Crimp a ring terminal to one end of this wire. Screw the ring terminal to the bare sheet metal using a Philips self-tapping screw. Do not use a seat belt bolt or a welded location for the ground, since these do not provide proper continuity and may cause ground-loop whine or amplifier malfunction.
Speaker Wiring
Cut two lengths of speaker wire sufficient to reach the amp from the back of the radio. Identify the speaker wire leads on the radio harness using the label affixed to the top of the unit, or in the owner's manual. Snap a T-tap over each speaker wire. Strip 1/2 inch of insulation from both ends of the four conductors on each speaker wire. Crimp the spade portion of the T-tap connector to the radio end of each stripped wire. Slide these into the slots at the base of the T-taps. Route the speaker wire from behind the radio through the wiring channel occupied by the RCA and remote turn on leads to the amplifier.
Final Steps
Screw the power, ground and remote wires to their respective terminals on the amplifier. Screw the speaker wires into the amplifier terminals, matching the polarity observed at the radio. Slide the RCA cables into the matching red and white amp inputs. Screw the amp to the intended mounting location. Reinstall the radio into the cavity, reversing the steps taken to remove the unit. Snap the sill plates back into place, covering the wires leading to the amp. Secure the under-hood fuse holder to an existing wire bundle using a pair of 4-inch zip ties. Snip off the excess with the tips of the wire strippers. Turn on the car and stereo. Turn the amplifier gain all the way down. Turn the radio up to the 3/4 volume point. Turn the amplifier gain up to the point where audible distortion is heard, then slowly reduce the gain until it disappears.
