Hi,
I'm very new to this. And I'm trying to setup a karaoke system for my dad. I recently bought:
1. Yamaha MG166CX 16-Channel 6-Bus Analog Mixer

2. PA DJ Karaoke Home Pro Audio 15" Three Way Black Speaker Pair 1500C
(back of speakers)

3. Pyle Pro PTA1000 1000 Watt DJ Amplifier
(the back of amp)

We have karaoke player at home already.
and none of them comes with any cable to connect. To my understanding, I need to connect them following this picture:

I have cable to connect karaoke player to mixer.
ok, now I need to go from mixer to amplifier, then from amp to speakers. 2 of each.
So I need to buy these:
1. Pyle PPJJ-15 Professional 1/4-Inch to 1/4-Inch Speaker Cable (15 Feet) (2)

That one go from mixer to amp.
2. Pyle PPSJ-30 Speakon Speaker Connector to 1/4-Inch Speaker Cable (2)

and that one is to connect the amp to speaker.
Is that correct? If not, what kind of connectors should I buy? When looking for cables I found in description about 12-gauge, 14-gauge...what is that mean?
Also, if above are correct, I need to buy them locally (not online) because I'm only home for about 2 more days, I need to have them in hand tomorrow to setup. Where can I buy these cables local? I tried to search on walmart, radioshack but they only have those online. I need specific store names so I can double check if they have them. In case you need, I live in Renton, WA.
Thank you so much.
where to buy these cables? (local)
I just did a search and there are a few music stores in the Renton area.
They will have the stuff you need. Take the diagrams or take the equipment with you. They can set it up and provide the wires.
Wire gauge....bigger is always better. But the numbers are backwards.
18 gauge is small and 10 gauge is big. They will probably sell you 12 or 14.
You did a good job on researching what you need. Good luck.
