in Vintage Speakers
Having gotten the 2.1s home, the only thing they seem to need are the metal terminal plates and the upgraded interconnect cable.

Can anyOne direct me to the thread(s) for these items?

Thank you in advance:-)

    I believe that the original poster is suffering from SRS giggles. Not sure but I believe he meant 1.2's, not 2.1's.

    It's understandable since he just struck gold high atop the Colorado Rockies.

    Understandable.

    Ok, I have the plates on order (thank you @vmaxer !), and I have the speakon plugs and bases on order as well. What kind of wire to most of you use for this cable? Gauge? Any sonic advantages to silver vs copper?

    Thanks again for all the help...

    Same cable you use for speaker cables. I made mine of the kimber kable I use for speakers.

    Damn - I was afraid that was going to be the answer....!

    I was using Kimber 8 TC, but I recently switched to MIT Shotgun S3.
