Wire Cutters
What do you use and how do you cut 24 gauge speaker wire?
I need to know if you can use regualr scissors or do i use wire cutters
Wire cutters are more convenient and will do a better splicing
job, but if you only have scissors and don't want to invest in a
good wire splicing tool, here's how you would do it...
1) Cut your speaker cable to your desired length to be able
to reach your speaker and receiver/amplifier.
2) Separate the two wires (i.e. positive "+" and negative "-")
on each end about 6 inches from the end by cutting down the
middle of the jacket holding the two wires together (if they are
running in shotgun).
3) Then take each Teflon covered wire and run the scissor's
blades around the wire jacket covering (about 1-2 inches from
the end of the jacket) until you have cut down to the bare wire.
With 24 gauge wire, you must be very careful as not to cut the
strands of wire when doing this because this is a very thin wire.
4) Once you have cut down to the bare wire, take the scissors
and slide the jacket off the end of the wire. WARNING! BE SURE
TO DO THIS AWAY FROM YOU AS NOT TO CAUSE BODILY
INJURY TO YOURSELF.
5) Finally, twist the bare wire tightly until all of the little individual
wires are as one bigger wire for best results in connecting to
your speakers and your receiver or amplifier. ALWAYS KEEP
THE POSITIVE "+" AND NEGATIVE "-" WIRES SEPARATE.
