How to Install Wireless Speakers
Traditional speakers use a pair of wires to receive sound from an audio source. Wireless speakers use radio waves to transmit sound from the audio source to the speakers. Wireless speakers have a greater flexibility in their location because you don't have to route the wires.
Items Needed:
- RCA cable
- Wireless speaker system
- Batteries
- Connect a pair of speaker wires to the output jacks of your audio source, typically a receiver or amplifier. Modern sound systems typically use RCA cable for speaker connections. The red RCA cable connects to the right audio output, and the white cable connects to the left audio output.
- Plug the free ends of the RCA cables into the transmitter for the wireless speaker system. The red cable connects to the right audio input, and the white cable connects to the left audio input.
- Plug the AC adapter into an electrical outlet. Connect the free end of the adapter to the power jack of the wireless speaker's transmitter. This adapter converts the voltage of the electrical current coming out of the wall to a voltage that is compatible with the transmitter.
- Install batteries into the wireless speakers, according to the manufacturer's instructions. Many wireless speakers use eight C batteries.
- Use the switches on the wireless speakers to assign one speaker to the left channel and the other speaker to the right channel.
- Turn on the transmitter and speakers. Press the “Pair” button on the transmitter for three seconds to allow the transmitter to establish communications with the speakers.
