if you are Ok with balanced cables exposed in your room for now of course that will be better. And you don't have to fart around making speaker wire fit into RCA type connectors.

Ur close go snag'em. They are wonderful horns anyone thinking about them. $325?...that's just the sanding labor.

Oh yes of course you will have to use both wires...don't have a "circuit" without both. I am going to pretend your speaker wires are a red and black pair. Wire the red wire to the RCA "center pin" on both ends and the black wire to the "outer shield" on both ends.

Go for it..it will work..just not optimally. Is this balanced or unbalanced?

Cool, so actually moveable by a couple human beans

so are they 8 singles? or 4 doubles...perspiring minds wanna know

I would only call if there was a 1% chance I would acquire these.

Well I rolled the dice on a supposedly "brand new" unit from Hong Kong. Don't have it yet, it's on a slow boat from China. There are several sellers on EBay in China that claim they have new units. I assume they bought out the surplus when production was shut down in China. We'll see.

There's that "it measures good but is bad" thing again Yep half tripped breakers, seen it several times in my life as well and not just in audio situations of course. And yes everybody should have one of those outlet checkers.

Op had an electrician check out his house, I certainly HOPE he would have checked for hot and neutral reversal. My understanding so far is that this is a single integrated amplifier system. Where would any kind of isolator go?

Maybe not so dumb...just looking through Decaware documentation they suggest it and say nothing about it being temporary(?). Also specs state 120HZ down only 68dBu (?)

Well there is that

I am afraid this will be the case in the OPs situation as well. Only he can decide if he can live with the hum. But he still needs to short the inputs to get to the inherent hum level.

Dang that work thing always gets in the way

did we lose the OP @ThomBoh ?

@ACME you have 8 single bass bins? or 4 doubles?

Hey @Barcelona @driverdog I'm trying to hook you guys up.

maybe

I think @wuzzzer is correct. And my question is what social events occur? Pilgrimages used to be a blast.

@ThomBoh sorry if I missed it...are you shorting the inputs when trying this hum test with just the amp and speakers? There is a SCIENTIFIC way to troubleshoot these types of problems. If with only the speakers connected to the amp and the inputs to the amp shorted and there is hum there is something wrong(or inherent) in the amp. Given another amp running off the same power outlet is fine.

Pictures will help...and maybe a minimum below which you will just laugh Only you know what you got into them. GLWYS

Hello, Anyone have a unit they don't use that they would part with? babadono

Gotta love them speaker stands tho....

You should be okay running 2 sets of 8 ohm nominal impedance speakers in parallel on your 4 ohm capable output.
