I had another brain ****.

I bought some 10 3 solid core wire from Lowe's $20.13 for 50' or you can buy it by the foot. Strip the outer sheath or casing whatever it's called off the 10 3 because you only need one of the wires for the IC and then strip about 1" off each end and pound each end with a hammer on the concrete to flatten it a little until it fits snug into your SDA pin jack.

    Any specific type or weight of hammer? Number of poundings, is an anvil helpful? :D
    JC approves....he told me so. (F-1 nut)

    in order to get true time alignment yous ic cable should be as long as the leads to the speaker( as long as one lead, not both).try that and see what happens

    I have these same speakers but not the studio I believe.Mine have the horizontal blades socket on the back. just ordered a cable from Polk OUT of baltimore. I won these from E-bay. I'm having Problems with the right speaker only the tweeter is working. How do I trouble shoot it to make sure what the problem is before I order more drivers. thanks
