    If you plan to use a 13 and a 12 for the rear then use 2 13's and coil 1m up behind the amp/receiver.
    Never coil excess speaker cable. You will form an inductor which will act as a filter (affecting sound) and will also change the load seen by the amlifier which it might not like. Any excess cable should be arranged in an 'S' formation to avoid this.

    Hmm the phono to stereo cable worked, but voices sounded a lil strained and crackled which was interesting!

    I've bought an optical cable off ebay (saw that sky box does have optical out) so will try that to see if its better quality!
