oogins Posted November 11, 2001 Share Posted November 11, 2001 According to the SVS site, you will get all the necessary cables except the speaker wire. You need the speaker wire to hook the subs to the amp. ------------------ -Paul My Computer Speaker Setup: Receiver: Kenwood VR-409 (soon to be Denon 3802 or H/K AVR 320 w/PA 4000 amp) Front: Klipsch Quintet Satellites Center: Klipsch Quintet Center Surround: Klipsch Quintet Satellites Sub: Sony SA-W305 (soon to be SVS 25-31PC or SVS 25-31CS) This message has been edited by oogins on 11-11-2001 at 10:49 AM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TVodhanel Posted November 11, 2001 Share Posted November 11, 2001 If you get the Samson with a subwoofer, we include a bettercables silver serpent cable with RCA termination on one end and 1/4" style on the other.You use this to patch the rca subwoofer output of your receiver to the channel #1 input on the Samson amp. If you also purchase an EQ, we include a second bettercables cable for that. We also include a RCA/1/4" adaptor...in case you have a long distance run between the receiver and the intended location of the Samson amp and will be using your own cable.(the cable we supply is 1m). All you have to do is add some generic 12-14g speaker wire to go from the amp to the sub(s)...and you're all set. TV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seb Posted November 13, 2001 Share Posted November 13, 2001 "add some GENERIC 12-14g speaker wire"... God I love your no-nonsense approach TV! a true Klipscher! besides, even if expensive wires do make a difference and amps do sound different, ignorance is bliss... and cheaper!

TVodhanel Posted November 13, 2001 Share Posted November 13, 2001 Hey, just find an old extension cord or lamp cord...works just as well... I'd love to see a dual CS_U/S1000(pro amp...GASP!) wired with a couple 99cent extension cords from kmart compared to the country club subwoofers out there.

TVodhanel Posted November 15, 2001 Share Posted November 15, 2001 I've built that a long time ago...maybe 5 years now. Used it in my HT room for a few years, and now it's sitting in storage.(i've sort of become emotionally attached ). here's what the back of my HT room looked like a couple years ago. if you look closely, you'll see the back end of a audiocontrol 3050 RTA on the table...and under the fold-down shelf on the sectional is a calibrated 170dB audiocontrol mic. I think I had about 20 long throw 12s in the room at one time...with something like 6-7 kilowatts total.I used to run *high* level sweeps and stand outside the house(with a friend or two) pushing against the doors and picture window(it's just an old living room) trying to maintain air pressure in the room for high SPL bursts. when you look into the abyss,the abyss also looks into you, TV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Garrison Posted November 15, 2001 Share Posted November 15, 2001 uh, geez, TV, I'm, uh, speechless... and that's not easy, ask anyone... Thanks for the picture. I feel much better now. There **ARE** people in the world who are crazier than I am. By the way, were you "satisfied" with the bass you were getting with that setup, or are you still searching for more? And if so, of what, pray tell? Jealously, Ray ------------------ Music is art Audio is engineering Ray's Music System Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martindemon Posted November 15, 2001 Share Posted November 15, 2001 LOL Great picture hyper-subs! Could be used to guard your house against thieves ; just plus the alarm on a circuit that sends violent low freq. signals to these and you could actually knock out the thieves! (or deafen them, the bastards!!) Why are you no longer using them? You need space? The ultimate killing experience would be to put on a noise cancelling helmet and go into a big sub to be crushed by the bass of your favorite music!

mike stehr Posted November 15, 2001 Share Posted November 15, 2001 You Know, If you use various recipes of high quality plenum Cat 5 wire, and a little know-how in measuring and testing, You can come up with a great quality sounding speaker cables for a great price. It's something I need to do. Hey TV, Where do you get that sonotube material? Serious elephant call subs there. THANX! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
