Hey Athanos,

what are cheaters??

I have jumpers made of a-c that go from one Positive speaker post to the other...this made a big change. The sound solidified but then the hum began. With just a normal stereo connection to each sub there isn't much hummmm.

A Cheater has to be something difft, please fill me in. i'd like to keep the a-c connection if possible.

I only listened for 30 minutes last night, but with just a single IC connected to each sub the volume/output sucks. According to the maker, Y cables are needed so that each RCA input jack on each sub is loaded with a signal. Off to Rat Shack after work.... amazing how difft the sp level & IC level connections sound.

On one hand i'd like to incorporate a Behringer EQ..this would mean an IC connection only. On the other is the fact that i think speaker level connections integrate & sound really cool.

i'll probably just get a 2nd LC-1 IC and hunt for a used Behringer DEQX 2496 but still, it'd be great to get this hum issue resolved.
