Well I'm just about to start installing my sound sytem in the new house.
It appears the house was "wired for sound" as there are speakers built into the ceilings in a couple of rooms plus a pair of speakers built into the eave of the roof outside. There was a junction box that had what appears to be a speaker wire connection with two grey cables each containing 4 colored wires (Red White, Green & Black) When we removed the ceiling we found what appeared to a transformer that one of the grey cables was connected to, but I can't find any source of power to it, if it is a transformer??
This weekend we start wiring for the sound system and I want to try an utilize some of the wiring that is already there.
Main box in the living room
Cables that come out of the wall one of which connected to the other side of the room and connects to the "transformer". The other cable connected to the 2 speakers that were in that room whcih have since been removed since we have vaulted the ceiling.
