Style Hooks

Is it possible to hook up these speakers on my shelf system?

I have a shelf stereo system that uses the higher end style of hooking up speakers where the bare copper wire gets crimped/clipped into the stereo. I would like to use some older left over speakers with it. The speakers I want to use have the cheaper/low end style where you actually plug them into the back of the speaker. The plug looks just like the audio video plugs that you would use to hook up a camcorder to a VCR. Is it possible to clip off these plugs and strip the wires and plug them into my stereo?

Thanks!

Capt - Yes it is. Just cut off one end of the RCA speaker cable and strip the wire and insert it into the connector on the shelf system. If you don't have the RCA speaker cables, they are available at Radio Shack:
