| speakers and cables Grizzly, I am confused (but that doesn’t take much) picture 1. I’ve never hooked my sub up via speaker wire, but I save all my manuals, so I just went to my M&K sub manual and looked at it, and it appears as if they are saying to hook up as y... | |
| speakers and cables this looks also cool (but $ already too high Okay, so that’s a low pass filter, which, if I’ve got this right and your sub is the same as mine, is the adjustable part that sets where the frequency that the sub reproduces will be cut off at.. "... | |
| speakers and cables Hmmm, I guess "Outlaw" was an appropriate name for it. Did you get your subs working yet, via speaker wires to sub and out of sub? I just re-read your OP, and out of curiosity, what is your second sub? And your original (first) sub? And also, ... | |
| speakers and cables It worked!! Thanks, @dill !!! I am diagnoseably computer illiterate, but now, thanks to you, a tad bit less. That’s the second thing I’ve learned in the last ten minutes! On edit: that is transformational! | |
| speakers and cables high pass filter | |
| speakers and cables Grizzly, even though I know what you said and I respect that and I understand, since a pic is theoretically worth a lot of words, here is what my high pass looks like. I am only posting this as it may clarify my explanation. And A’gon may not let ... | |
| speakers and cables I can’t buy another component, I have to make what I have work. I gotcha; I totally understand. But I am going to ask anyway if I am understanding this correctly: Just one RCA out from preamp. You are saying just one pair of RCAs (L&... | |
| That Transformational piece of Gear We All Wish For I like your thoughts. I’ll tell her that since we live on a dirt road with horses up and down our streets that I’m just keeping the tv clean. And dust free. @wjcasey, I’ve never done that myself, as I didn’t think I needed to, as when my rig... | |
| speakers and cables An external high pass filter maybe? I bought a M&K external high pass,around 30 years ago, give or take, and I don't recall it costing an arm an leg. Anyway, in a nutshell (if I've got this right from memory) your RCA outs from preamp will g... | |
| Album(s) That Took The Longest To Come Around To I am going to add Van Morrison/Blowin Your Mind. I remember hearing Brown Eyed Girl frequently on AM radio stations when I was growing up in Montana and I thought it was a catchy tune but I never thought much else about it. Then in '91 when I ha... | |
| Soundtracks and Film scores, your favourites I was listening to Leonard Cohen this afternoon and thought of Natural Born Killers. I am late to a lot of parties, and I did not discover Leonard Cohen or The Cowboy Junkies until Natural Born Killers came out on VHS. | |
| The criteria for loudspeaker choices. . . . never mind, I just did some speed reading (TAS), and they quote a suggested 50 to 150 wpc and they say that nominal impedance is 6 ohms (5.6 ohms minimum).. | |
| The criteria for loudspeaker choices. @bdp24 is a well respected contributor who always has something interesting to say. +1. @bdp24 , what do the specs say about the power suggested to drive those speakers? (Unless I missed that even though I did a couple of re-reads. If s... | |
| That Transformational piece of Gear We All Wish For Big open space, with a tv in between. I wish I could figure out the best way to treat that space without my wife telling me it’s ugly, or worse yet, no :). My preamp made the biggest difference. @wjcasey3rd , I had always read that anything lar... | |
