In addition, get the speaker cable that Quad recommends... Black &
Decker extension cord. Of course, you will have to "mod" it. Cut off
the
electrical ends and add your own speaker connectors. Of course, you'll
have to like the color...
To Walker - wire was wire - the new owners use oxygen free, etc. etc
for the
wiring inside the speaker and components themselves now. Previously,
it had
been under a 'wire is wire' philosophy.
Yet another unfortunate case of a fine engineer building the
reputation of a company, and his incompetent son contriving to ruin
it. Now the marketing guys hold sway, and bull**** is the order of the
day. Sad, very sad - but at least they gave us the 988/989!
Isn't it always the way? Still Quad is hardly "ruined" though got gobbled
up like many boutique electronics manufacturers in the last 20 years!
I am about to compare and contrast some 10 ga. Power cord I have vs. Kimber
Cable (the low end of the "4" range I already have). Since I have been
using this power cable for powering a bandsaw and power drill can I assume
it has been "broken in?" :-} (Got a new cord that reaches a bit further and
didn't want the other one go to waste!  )
