Speakers I down loaded a boston speaker system then I found out I do not have the power cord I know it is 12 vold t dc, but I dont know how many amps it is suppose to have . Iwould apprecite it if you could tell me. Thank you

yes, your speakers will be damaged. do not connect 19 volts to a 9 volt device. go to walmart or radioshack and purchase the correct power supply.

12 volts AC, 1500-2000 milliamps, or 1.5-2 amps found here: http://www.neoseeker.com/forums/153/t710913-power-supply-for-ba735/

You need to know what the wattage of the speakers are, polarity is generally standard. There is a small formula too work out what the current rating is. This you can find on the internet. Just search for Voltage , watts to amp converter.
Hope this helps

If you live within the United States, you may be able to go to BestBuy or Radio Shack to get a similar power cord that will power your speaker system. Just try to get an idea of the shape of the connector.

Boston Acoustics Media Theater HUM. The problem may be the power source. Find another DC power source for the 12 volt. All I had was a 14.5 volt 4.5 amps source Model PS6 power source which fit the plugin socket. Absolutely no hum now and still great sound. However, I would recommend a DC 12 volt source with at least 3 amps output.

You want stranded wire, speaker wire, 14 - 12 gauge

Well first off if there is a power cord that goes in the front then it should be powered by that. Second of all you should have a power switch on the front of the speakers to turn it on and volume control.

Do not worry about the milliamp.
As long as you use an adapter thats the correct voltage (you stated 12 volts), the end connector fits into the speakers and the polarity is the same, then you wont have any trouble.

Hi, the mA rating for this power adapter is 1500 mA !! I'm gonna give you all the specs. you need to order a new one, and I'm gonna tell you where you can order a new one at; at your preference ?

steve - if you have any further questions, i will be glad to help out, you can email me [email protected]

they might have had a mini amp installed in each speaker some models of speakers have that feature to where u have to hook up power and also the regular speaker connections to the radio system basically even if you have a radio with some power then the speakers may have some type of crossover or something that makes it so if u dont have the power hooked up to them then they wont work right... but there are some speakers out there that dont do that, or it could be that if the stereo that u r using may just be that it has barely any output so it doesnt power the speakers... option 1, if it is the stereo then u will eather have to go to a car shop that sells the self powering speakers "not as cheap as regular speakers" and get those or, option 2, which consists of having to install a new stereo system with more power "remember the system hass to have a little more power than all the speakers combined together..."
