I believed that should be the way. Good listening!
I have a Sony Str-k502 Digital Theater 5.1 Stereo Receiver (http://www.amazon.com/Str-k502-Digital-Theater-Stereo-Receiver/dp/B00I0N7EOO) and my wife bought me 4 outdoor rock speakers (http://www.amazon.com/Outdoor-Garden-Waterproof-Granite-Speakers/dp/B003OFADNC/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1459262506&sr=1-3&keywords=rock+speakers) Could i use this receiver to connect these speakers? I was planning on running two 12 gauge wires, each connected to 2 speakers in parrallel. Where would I connect the two wires in the back of the receiver? In the surround speaker outputs? Does it matter which one is Left and Right? I'm not very knowledgeable on this so any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
