CS_Seal Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 So I had the Monster subwoofer cable hooked up to my Sub-12 just fine, but it wouldn't fit on the back of the A/V receiver. It seems to me like the input wasn't deep enough because the cable would not fit snug inside of it. So my subwoofer didn't work. Then I went and grapped a generic composite cable and used the white audio jack and that works fine. Does anyone have any ideas as to why the Monster cable didn't work?

CECAA850 Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Welcome to the forum. Did you try reversing it or trying it on another RCA jack? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CS_Seal Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 Thank you, and yes I tried reversing it and putting it in other jacks on the back of my receiver. It just doesn't seem to want to go in anywhere....It realy stumps me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russ69 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Some of the really fancy and heavy RCA connectors just don't make a good connection. I've had that problem from time to time. The two connectors are just not compatible together. Thanx, Russ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CS_Seal Posted September 9, 2009 Author Share Posted September 9, 2009 I figurd it out...I feel stupid though. The monster subwoofer cable has angled slots cut into the end that goes around the pre-out on the receiver. I have to twist it on so the cable goes on and holds a secure fit. Before I was just pushing straight in, which if I had pushed hard enough, I would have broke the pre-out. It works fine now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
