Seeking advice on connecting non-B&O speakers to Beocenter 9300

13 replies

you know what, while i would def re-foam the cx's and save them...

have you considered looking for an older larger pair of passives? perhaps s45/s55/s60 etc...? the early s45's really are fantastic sounding speakers and can usually be found for not a great deal more than the re-foam kit and your time to install.

btw, i run s60's w/ my 9300 and they sound wonderful...

enjoy! 

Hi everybody.

 
Yes, i just ordered my surround foams from a supplier i found in London, hopefully they arrive soon.

As of now, i'm also looking for a good second-hand B&O subwoofer (just to be purist), but i'm also looking into other brands (like Mordaut Short and JBL which is widely available here in the Philippines) but my problem is they're all active speakers. Can't seem to find many passive ones in the market here.

So my dilemma now actually is, granted i use the CX100s, how do i connect an ACTIVE subwoofer? Through the Powerlinks using an adaptor? Cause i doubt i could find a subwoofer with proper outputs for the CX100s. So i guess i'll just have the CXs connected via the usual way and add a line-out for the active sub. Am i correct?

Any and all inputs highly appreciated. :)

 

 

Hi everyone! Any idea as to whether i can use an ACTIVE sub along with the Beovox CX100s in my Beocenter 9300? Thanks! :)
