I'm so bad I vacation in Detroit.

The first attempted assassination of Pope John Paul II took place on Wednesday, 13 May 1981, in St. Peter's Square at Vatican City. Bad things have and do happen to Popes. And who's paying? You and me bro'

It all depends what your amp can handle. Do you want your amp to see a 1, 2, 4 or 8 Ohm load? Yea I knew as soon as I posted this it of course depends on what you need/want. Silly question, my bad.

Wasn't beer invented by the ancient Egyptians? Just sayin

I'd assume so. I've been saying "tin" as opposed to "aluminum" foil for years. I guess out of laziness. Funny how things get ingrained in our culture, the product's been made out of aluminum for who knows how long but we all still say "tinfoil". It is not your laziness I don't think.

Congratulations. Why'd you wait until so late to tell us? Afraid some of us might show up?

Scrappy, Derrick et al, Which ones do you guys go with dual 2s or dual 4s?

I'm having a hard time wrapping my mind around why this works. Are we talking about the signal input cable being wrapped with tinfoil? Or the power cord? Or both? And then it is just floating? Anybody got an explanation? Oh and BTW its aluminum foil not tin right?

I woke up this morning and I wasn't dead. Does that count?

Isn't that the beer thing?

Welcome Ali, Sounds like you will have an awesome new system soon. I am just curious are 'in ceiling' speakers possible or practical in your home? I think we here in the U.S. assume all houses are built with wood framing and finished with drywall on the inside. This makes retrofitting things into walls and ceilings relatively easy. But I know from my travels to Peru that not all homes are built this way. Again welcome and you owe me a beer.

That's hilarious.... ....and true. Which came first the deafness or the horns?

Generally speaking power amp/receiver outputs are not impedance balanced and speakers are not balanced inputs. Treating your speaker wire like a balanced line will do nothing. Heck why don't we shield it also? But that 4 conductor Knukonceptz sure do look nice.

I was going to say when I saw your original alert YM that one would have to ask "Does it work?"

Yea Jim, just to clarify I meant I must remember for future troubleshooting.

That's funny!You have snow already? It was a joke off the net , no snow here Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk What's that green stuff?

Very, very, very good idea-------Must remember beep Must remember beep

Awesome! Happy listening from now on. Enjoy. Just curious which one? The midrange?

Uh oh guys, I think he got the bug. There's some beautiful Belle Klipsch in cherry veneer with cane grills for sale in your area. See the Garage Sale section. Welcome to the Forum.

I believe the sound you are hearing is noise induced onto the input cable upon a static discharge. The static is using the shield on your cable to get to ground which induces a common impedance mode noise into the input of your sub which is single ended(not balanced) and therefore has very low CMR. The solution(or at least partial solution) is to give the static an easier path to ground. Does the sub have 2 or 3 prong input power cable?

The problem is that they grade the answer AND how you got the answer. If you didn't perform the task how they taught you then you get marked off for it, normally 50% off of the correct answer. Correct, they are teaching you HOW to think. Seems to be a lot of differences of opinion on that.

Its all good, no worries. So these 2 threads were not started by Mikekid? My bad, sorry.

Still waiting to understand this... Dave I think its in reference to post #20 ------I THINK
