That is the mistake I made with my Ditton 15xrs, I wraped the wires around each other, im going to have to take the drivers out and correct it.

The gauge of the Mission wiring is dire and a far bigger difference would be to beef it up a little bit. 50 strand equipment wire can be got from Maplin and it's what I used in my Spendors (and recommended by them). I also made up some 'test' cables using stranded 1.4mm tinned copper wire and a 2m metre run from 'my' NVA amps (two separate wires to each speaker) worked fine and gave no audible issues at all (the LS5 stays put though

)

What about if I use some of the Supra Classic 2.5 speaker cable for the internal wiring, That would be a step up, I think.

Why!!! It has reactance so it has characteristics. Internal wiring should be with standard wiring wire. These are probably the best to use.

They are 100m so once one of you has them you can share.

The 760's are becoming my testing-ground for learning on. Rewiring would seem to be the obvious next step. Now I did have a soldering iron around somewhere ... Pity I don't have a BMU to plug it into

I can lend you my BMU if you wish? I was only going to use it for the lawnmower, microwave and dishwasher anyway.

Good stuff

You can get the same in shorter 5m lengths (but greater cost) on eBay, as I had to before I bought the drums above.

Interesting thread.

I'm a bit bored, the rain has just started forcing me inside from the garden and the Mrs is clearing out the spare room.

I told her to put my 760s to one side and now they're sat looking at me daring me to open them.

Where's that screwdriver.
