I think amps like Jolida or Conrad jonhson are the real thing, compare to the poor device you construct in your garage...
Joker!

With the money from the sale you should have enough to buy a real amp (not something that looks like a piece of art) .
Just an opnion, though.
BTW, I cannot see your picture.

I agree.
Sell it and buy the real thing! |

They are old din speaker outlets,you can get them still but your looking at cheap sh*t plastic ones.
There is a company in the UK who supply metal ones .I'll PM you the details

I don't want to invest any money I have the jacks needed for the outlets, im just confused about the +/- thing.

Loudspeaker (2-pin):
Round Pin - Positive (Positive + usually donated by a red sleeve on your cable)
Flat Pin - Negative (Neg - usually donated by a Blk sleeve on your cable)

It's not the amplifier I use... (you are right B&O are very overrated, you buy with you eyes not your ears, I used one similar (beomaster 3000) in the past a bit bigger, but didn't sound very great) This one I got from someone who wanted to get rid of it, and i've just suceeded in selling it (not for very much though) and I am confused about the speaker connection, i just want to give the buyer the correct instruction.

As your in Denmark try out an amplifier company called Densen...Real gear.

I have an old Bang & Olufsen tuner/amplifier, my question is about correct loudspeaker connection.
As you can see in the picture (sorry abou the quality, took it with my cellphone) there are some oldfashioned output terminals (if that is what they are called), and as you can see there are two "holes" in both the output terminal for the right channel, and the left channel there is a big one and a small one, and I wonder which of the "holes" is the positive one (usually on newer amps the red one) and which is the negative one (usually black on newer amps) 
I hope I made myself clear, and that there is someone out there with this specific kind of information.

My own poor opinion is get a new amplifier and speakers to match that one. B & O is way over-rated, but you should have no problems fiding a sucker to buy this stuff. Put an add in a special HI-FI mag, there are always people that do collection of those old amps.
With the money from the sale you should have enough to buy a real amp (not something that looks like a piece of art) .

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword
