Volume Control Wires to Speaker Plate 4 wires vs 2 wires?

Question

I am getting my house pre-wired for sound and in one room we added a volume control to connect to 2 6.5 inch speakers. Speaker wire is 2 pair into the volume control (basic k**b control) and then from the volume control out it has 4 pair. How how i hook up those four pair of wires to the speaker plate like this one ---> http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10425&cs_id=1042503&p_id=3324&seq=1&format=2 .

Answer 1

Sounds like you are wired for a specific distributed audio system, but you're trying to do something else.

Are the 4 pair in the same jacket? If so, it's cat5 and you could wire the solids to positive and the striped to negative.
