...and run some 10 gauge wire out each section, be sure the wire has room to breath, at least 1/2" around the wire in the cabinet of the Bose speaker....

Gosh, you fellas are all so helpful! Seth, I was reading on audioreview that My bose cubes are kind of dark. I was gonna run them with copper wire, but that would darken the low freq. even more. Should I run silver instead to brighten up the l.f.?

Don't forget to elevate the silver speaker wire off the ground!

Yes. I was going to use the ceramic elevators, but am now looking into the wooden ones. Is there a species of wood that would help brighten the dark signal? I was leaning towards Bubinga, but would settle for a nice birdseye maple.

Wow, I haven't heard of Bubinga wood in a long time. Many moons ago when I played in a band our drummer had his drum set made out of Bubinga wood. Very expensive :eek: And it made them sound like... well... Drums!;)

Sorry to post about "Blue-Ray", but it just drives me nuts. I had an instructor at school spell it wrong while lecturing, I told him "drop the 'E'".:D
I was talking to a guy about BLOO-REY the other day, and he was driving me nuts because he kept calling it "Blue light". Blue Light?!?!? We're not talking about K-mart!!

Ah, the man is just a visionary. He can see the day when they will be on the famous blue light special. "Blu-ray players for $39 in aisle 5."

I must be honest...I began to weep when I read this. "Settle"? "Settle"?!? Okay, maybe if you were running low-end speaker junk like Legacy, fine. But you're talking about Bose here, man. Do you really want to keep them shackled and restrained, or do you want to set them free so that they can transport you to another dimension of acoustic joy? Set them free, my friend. Set them free.

Audio nirvana, thy name is Bose.

Someone said something about powering the B0se with Krell amplifier, common?:rolleyes: If a guy was using Halcro monoblocks and that wasn't enough then how on this green earth are Krells going to work. You need to use B0se's amplifiers. B0se's amplifiers are so powerful they don't even publish their specs so they can avoid embarrasing other manufacturers.

Most definitely, make sure you get the ones with batteries attached to it.

Have you looked into the Tice Clock, it works wonders.
OMG! THIS IS AMAZING

No no no thats all wrong. You are taking the easy way out. Here is how I get perfect sound I even managed to get my speakers to sound almost as good as Bose but not quiet. This solution is quiet a good one though. First you plug any wire into a wall socket. Now cut the wire but here is the tricky part you have to have a big glass jar ready and opened. You will also need someone to help you close the jar just as quickly ohh yeah and make sure you don't get electrocuted. As soon as you cut the wire put the active side in the jar and shake the wire until you get some electrons trapped then quickly seal the jar before the little buggers escape! Now its time for electron boot camp. Make them do push ups and run laps until they are perfectly pure then slap that jar on top of your sound system and it will cleanse everything. No stupid clock will do as good of a job as this will you just have to get those lazy electrons into shape. I swear your HTiB will make people cry it will be so clear with this tweek :rolleyes:.

That's awesome, but i think you might need a disclaimer on that one. It sounds dangerous.

Oh come now. Only a complete moron would possibly electrocute himself while catching electrons. That's child's play. Plus we all know that we Audiophile's are much too smart to make such a simple mistake.

That's because Bose uses mini cold fusion reactor amplifiers, providing nearly unlimited wattages, and they are stable into zero ohms.

The first one was designed and built when the people working on the Manhattan Project, but they got bored with simple things like 'atomic fission'.

If Bose released the specs black ops agents from eleven country's would be out to get them! I swear it's all true! I read it on the Internet!

Great. Just GREAT! You had to go and say that, didn't you? Now, instead of getting ready to watch a movie tonight and cranking up my Bose system, I've got my 30-minute bag in my hand and I'm catching a plane so that I can go pay you a "visit". Stupid government job...

Dang it! This is way worse then when I worked at Area 51, and accidentally put pictures of the UFO all over the web…. Dang it!

Ahhh, no worries. I've calmed down quite a bit now. This government flight is going pretty well. The inflight movie is a good one, and the blissfully sweet Bose QuietComfort headphones are a nice reminder of home. The fusion...AHEM...AAA batteries really bring these babies to life.

I'll just give you a stern talking to, and then we'll go grab a beer.

Who-ray! Beer! Good thing those QC’s will put anyone in a good mood.
