speakers and cables
this is about me being a loser and problem creator.
I finally got a 2nd subwoofer and I was excited to hook it up. Well, not too excited. I knew it would be a pain to hook it up. I was excited to hear it. I spent over 90 minutes connecting the speaker wires to my power amp. When I turned it on, the left channel was gone. It blew the fuse. I disconnected everything, replaced the fuse, hooked it up again. It worked for 10 seconds, blew the fuse again.
The way I hooked them up was I went from the sub speaker out from both subwoofers, rolled the left and right side wires together so I had 4 wires that I connected to the left and right plus and minus channels - speaker binders on the power amp. What are my options? My preamp has no sub out. Nor my amp.
Stupid question: should I just go from left to left on one sub and right to right on the other sub?
Not sure about that stuff. It might be too squishy. The link provided is made for equipment vibration. Like I said, it has worked wonders for me. Really is one of the bargains out there for this kind of stuff. |
OOPS! Ha ha, nobody ever hired me for my brains. That might work. I remember way back when I went to look at those B&W 805s, they had a three way B&W speaker at the show room also (I cannot remember if it ws the 802 or the 804 or what), and it basically reminded me of 805s sitting on top of a subwoofer. |
