No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need

b4icu: "They also asked me if you worked for NASA at the time the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster (January 28, 1986)? That could explain a lot…"

I read that and my heart sickened. What kind of negative insinuation is that on Geoff? That’s just sad and completely uncalled for. And you got upset about my reference to a comedy show! Challenger was launched out of specification that morning, despite warnings by engineers. Politics overrode that position. Enough said. Go peddle your nonsense in another universe, please.

0 AWG is complete and utter NONSENSE!

You've got it so wrong Mr. stevecham. The Space Shuttle Challenger disaster was a combination of a bad management decision to launch it in spite of very low temperature that day and a rings and gasket technical issue that been fixed from that time on. Nothing personal.  My say to Mr. geoffkait implied he could make them (one or both) with his out of this world technical attitude. I did not called him names as you did to me.

For the right cables (what you call 0 AWG): it works. We have 3 more guys who did it and are very happy with the results. Sorry you missed it. The count is on 6 so far.

Huh? What in the world are you going on about? I implied what? When? Where? Who?

Well, one is a ’friend’ of yours, two are are ’friend’s’ of another member here and are not available to answer questions from us. I would put that in the hearsay category and should not be included on the chart. I am sure you will disagree.

"...a bad management decision to launch it in spite of very low temperature that day..."

I know nothing about Space Shuttles but was the low temperature at the launch site really that crucial for something designed to, minutes later, be in temperatures that are hardly ever, if ever, observed on Earth’s surface? I am not trying to make this into a Space Shuttle thread, although it is becoming one, but it seems illogical to a complete layman.

What am I missing here? Where was that low temperature?
