You can use normal speaker wires straight into the back of them, or your old ones going into the sides (din connection.)  if they're on floor stands, use wires into the back of them, it looks better and you can conceal the wiring.

Beovox 1000 has captured cables so you will need a different pair of cables for the Redlines and, as Rex suggests, if your speakers
have the DIN connector at the side, you will need what is often referred to as extension cables, that is cables with male and female plugs respectively.

Something is telling me that they did away with the side sockets in the .2's. I had some 60.2's recently without side sockets.

The only way to connect to them is via the spring clips in the black hole which require just bare cable ends.

My 60.2s had the side DIN entry - and I had both late and early ones. Very unobtrusive so easy to miss.

I'm pretty sure the RL6000's did loose them

Confirmed - I have a pair of both. But, being B&O, I wouldn't be surprised if there had been some overlap in production around the time of the model change.

My RL 60.2 have the side din plug sockets...or since i use stands the sockets are at the bottom...but i use the rear spring connection points.

I have a pair of cables which were made up by Sounds Heavenly in the UK...they told me that it is better to use the rear spring sockets because the side din plug sockets are not great quality apparantly...and i had a pair of 5 metre cables made up for just £15 including delivery!

I had 42 strand cable made up but they can also make up thicker cables...but they said that for my Beosystem 5500 the 42 strand cable would be fine...which it is!

As indeed they would be for any system!!

Thanks a lot guys, its good to get advice from you guys once again being a novice to this it is really nice to know that there is people out there willing to give their time to helping people out. I have got the din connectors on the side and was wondering if this would give me any more sound quality but it seems my question has already been answered. i am very impressed with the sound quality compared to the 1000s there is no comparison. i have the speakers in the upright position but not on stands,would there be a huge difference if i was to put them on stands? thanks again for your time.
