The amplifier come with wire screws to attach the wiring. No clips on this version. Yes the speaker wires are included AND they are long enough to wire a decent size room

Im sure that the speaker wires in your walls are of better quality than the ones that are supplied with the unit. usually the ones they send with the unit with what you would call starter wires. i always upgrade my wires with at least 16 gauge name brand wires . Such as monster cable.

Banana plugs are not absolutely necessary. You can just do the bare wire install. As for performance, I doubt you will be able to tell the difference. What matters most here is the type of rating of the speaker wire that you use. I used the 16-gauge variety and my system sounds great. I originally ran out of the 16-gauge speaker wire and bought some cheap thin one at walmart only to find out that there was hardly any sound coming out of one of my satellite speakers. Good luck with your system.

there is plenty speaker wire but I would recommend buying some figure games wire so you get better sound. Because the wire they provide is thin low quality, but I love the system.

If the question is in regard to speaker wire connections, these speakers take an open speaker wire. I would purchase a set (4) of banana plugs from Amazon, Home Depot or an electronic store. There are many different variations that boast different quality sound so that in itself is a decision. See the video below for a quick video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybRqeCkgXWs If the video is in regard to mounting, I would suggest you mount them to whatever you are mounting the projector to. The bracket shown has a set of 8 elongated holes, to accommodate for smaller or larger mounting applications. The speakers come with stainless steel screws that work well with wood, make sure to use a pilot hole so not to splinter the wood.

I run a powered sub off RCA's for my system with this unit. Banana clips for the additional non powered speakers.

You can put the speaker wire in thru the side OR the back of the banana plug. Make certain to buy the largest gauge wire. I bought 18 ga for small Element speakers and the wires don't stay in the clips. Bummer.

I would highly recommend getting some better quality speaker wire ( such as 16-14 gauge). The wire that is supplied with system is very cheap zip wire.

Yes it accepts banana plugs. Regular Speaker wire without banana plugs will work, but I think bananas are a lot more convenient and provide a more solid connection. BTW, this is an absolutely phenomenal amp for the money.

Hello what is the size of the speaker wire you can recommend that is good to use for this system that could give me the best sound? I will appreciate it very much if you can reply to this question.Thanks...

Speaker wire does come with the speakers. However, it was not enough for the room that I put them in (10 x 10 room).

Speaker wire does not come with the speakers, you have to purchase them separately. You can buy them on Amazon.com, make sure you get the 100 ft wire. The thicker the wire, the better he sound. Thin cheap wire will not, give your Speakers quality sound.

No, you have to purchase your own wire from what I can remember. It has been quite sometime since I bought the speakers and I don't recall that any speaker wire was included.

It comes with speaker wires (cheap quality)... I recommends you with high quality speaker that can produce better sounds and also banana clips for easy connection.

Bananas also work for connecting speaker wires to the 551R. There is a red or black plastic plug in the "banana hole" you'll need to pot out to make room, but that's no big deal. (In Europe, some AC plugs resemble bananas, hence the regulation that requires the plugs.) I hope this is helpful. Dick from Spearit Sound

Banana plug to banana plug. Most speakers these days have 5 way banana plug binding post connectors that will also accept bare wire.
