What is the best recommendation on how to extend a speakon cable run? I need to get atleast 100ft out of a speakon cable. Connecting to passive power speakers - not sure which extender to use to ensure proper functionality
Hi Techscrew
Your Information was great many thanks, however the main reason I looked at your site was to find out the actual connections for conductivity i e -1 and +1 for the most common connections.
You seemed to assume that information was was already known, maybe I'm wrong , but that was the information i was looking or ? maybe i mossed it but the rest of the instruction was excellent.
Mines was pulled out my speaker how to I get it to stay in and work again
Can you use pin 2 on ampifire
He didn't say how to take apart the nut tricks what do you do?
Good One
Thanks
Where is the positive where is the nagative??
spacibo!
Can I connect ..+1 and -1...+2 and -2....on one end..to both + and - on other side. ?
No, perderías la mitad del cable, ya que normalmente la hembra del altavoz es NL2MP para recibir NL2FX.
SI haces Bridge en la etapa de potencia, conectas como tú dices al canal A ( o 1) con NL4FX que llega al otro extremo, el parlante conectado como en el vídeo en NL2FX.
También se puede utilizar NL4FX para bi-amplificar ( algunas etapas de potencia caras lo permiten ) u otras características especiales...
Aparte NL4FX macho no entra en la hembra NL2MP.
Perfect English))
Yea right lol
Can I use 2.5mm cable?
of course, also 1.5mm, it all depends on power
what about 8 gauge cable? is it possible?
spec show 12-10awg, you can try 8awg and cut come wires, to fit inside.
Hello, We call this procedure a botch. Firstly, you only use reasonable speaker cable, e.g. Sommer cable. then you use ferrules because that's just the way it is now to do. what is the biggest mistake here is you never twist two wires and then stick them in one pole, that's the biggest crap ever. and if you only use such inferior aids and no sensible tools, you can assume that these cables will not last long and will break before long.
The biggest mistake here was using the screwdriver like that. Sure fire way to end up stabbing yourself in the palm.
cannot see becase very fast.
I can try to answer your questions...
I consider this job for amateurs. No need to use 4 wires cable just to double the wires a 3 x 2,5mm or 2 wire its enough, (those can handle more than 20 Amps) by the way always solder the ends.
Very fast......
Bro you must tell the number
what kind of number ?
@@Techscrews , the number on the back of speakon terminal! That's what he meant!
+1/-1 is standard.
Are you in a hurry?
no, I am from Latvia.
lmao
@@KS.81 he didnt understand
@@Techscrews , he meant your explanations were all shortcuts and not really clarified!
