I decided to purchase my HT system in parts, opting for higher cost items and a slow build over time rather than a HTIB system. Now I have 2.1 out of 5.1 sound with two front speakers and a sub. My old bookshelf system has a pair of speakers with some sort of proprietery wiring. Two different sets of what appears to be generic speaker wire runs out of the back of each speaker, i.e. each speaker has four wires. I assume that this is beacuse the receiver unit powered two different speakers housed in the same same speaker box. Perhaps a bass unit and a tweeter?? My question is this, can I splice in addtional speaker wire to the proprietry wiring and use them as temporary surrounds??
