wiring monoblocks to speakers


Hi

I am trying to figure this out for a while

What is the best way to wire the MB to the speakers. Long interconnects and MB close to the speakers or the MB close to the Preamp and longer wires to the speakers.

Thanks a bunch!

If the preamp and amp have balanced techmology (XLR), use long interconnects and short speaker cables. Otherwise, do the reverse...

All scientific stuff aside....monoblocs look very cool sitting next to the speaker.

Good answer.
Long speaker cables usually raise their capacitance and with some amps this can roll off the top end. Like hanging a capacitor over the posts. Keep spk. Cables short and interconnects longer if shielded adequately. Jallen
Vicdamone, rough night? Why respond to me? You added nothing to the thread either. The help that you speak of is only more of the same old rhetoric that has been posted on this topic ad nauseam.

It brought back memories of one member who started a thread title STFA (Search The Freaking Achives). Where he vented at those posting benign, repetitive questions posted every other day. I wish they hadn't deleted that thread. I thought I handled it rather politely. ;)

Final verdict, some say short ic's long sc's, some say short sc's, long ic's. Problem solved.
