Sorry if this is the wrong forum. I'm a klutz. Dropped one of the rear speakers from a 4.1 system and the resultant rattleing inside turned out to be the tweeter magnet. Popped right off the head. Oops! Can anyone tell me if can repair them myself of should I sent them to Klipsch? It looks like the glue gave out. What kind will fix this and hold up? If a special glue where can I get some? Thanks!

I know this may be too much to ask but here goes... The $.99/ft cable at Radio Shack is as good as "which?" Monster cable? I've seen that for the bass cable is very heavy. For reference MonsterCable.com says: <<<<< Eliminating Subwoofer Noise is a Tough Job, Even for a High Performance Cable Subwoofers often emit buzzes and hums that get louder as you increase the volume. And, the bass often sounds distorted, less powerful and precise than what you'd hear in a movie theatre. Most cable, even if it's a high performance cable, isn't designed for subwoofers. They can't reject the electromagnetic (EM) and radio frequency (RF) interference that causes common subwoofers buzzes and hums. In fact, they often attract noise, especially over longer cable runs. If you are using a Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound processor, the noise severely compromises the performance of the unit's dedicated Low Frequency Effects (LFE) channel, so you're not getting all the bass performance that's possible. Monster's MSB1000SW Maximizes Subwoofers Performance & Reduces Noise Monster's advanced TriPole construction features three high purity conductors tightly twisted in a unique helical configuration, which greatly reduces the sensitivity to magnetic noise sources like power transformers and power cords. >>>>> But who would put $500 of cable on a $400 system and expect a $900 system? In perspective, I'm expecting $60 a set of Monsters is probably a good speaker price/cable price ratio. And I assume Klipsch has selected the correct balanced Monsters that make their speakers sound the best. ---------------- On 12/20/2003 10:00:03 PM XanderF wrote: You realize you can run into any local Radio Shack and pick up 12-gauge insulated copper speaker cable at about $0.99/foot, right? That'll be at least as good as Monster cable, and a fair site cheaper, to boot. ----------------
