Sunfire Subwoofer Installation help needed

Thanks Mkfischer2000. I didn't think you could run both balanced and unbalanced at the same time from the preamp. I guess that is a lack of knowledge with out a doubt. I also thought that the sub had to be run directly into the amp. Again lack of knowledge too. It is a great feeling when you have a community with quality people like yourself whom can help issues at hand. Ok I guess I need to get an RCA end interconnect. I know where I get can a Kimber PBJ rather quickly. Will this work well in this application? Again thanks and I need to chill..........................

WOW !!! This sub is a marvel in it's self. Those Maggies with out a doubt have a partner !!!! Gmorris I set the sub up between the Maggies. Unbelieveable the lows and how they blend together. As I first started out the volume was a bit high and it litteraky rocked the cd player. So I had to back it off and presto ......no more skips! Your right too. These controls are VERY sensative. I can see where patience is going to be a factor here. I did notice that one of the RCA jacks that I plugged into on the sub was loose. It doesn't appear that you can tighten it from the outside. Is this something that needs attention? I'm happy and I'll experiment until I find the best sound possible. Thanks To everyone for the input too!!!!

After talking to the factory tech support. It appears that the loose RCA jack is a big problem. Mainly because it will create or already has an air leak. They also stated that it would have to be returned to the factory for proper repair. I have decided to return the unit to it's original owner under the circumstances. I guess my quest continues for another sub of the same type. Maybe I should purchase a new one instead !! I'm sold on this sub and I will obtain another too !!!!! Thanks to everyone for all of the support and help........................

A new one for under a k ?? Hmmmmm where do I start looking for that kind of deal ? Seriously where ???????

Yes you did get a tremendous deal. I've found the regular Architectural unit for under a grand. The signature version I haven't. The best I've found is $ 1350. I'll keep grinding away and your right too !! I'll get another one that doesn't have a jack problem. Once this quest is filled i'll check into the sistruns stand. I did read a little at the sight you provided. Very interesting I may add.........
