Beovox Cona Subwoofer wiring installation into Beovox CX100 speakers and Beosystem 6500 issues

[Benji]

Hi all,

I have a full beosystem 6500 alongside the Beovox CX100 speakers, and Beovox Cona subwoofer, but I cannot for the life of me work out how you are supposed to connect inline, the DIN cabled CX100 speakers with the input/output connections on the underbelly of the Cona subwoofer which require raw copper cable, any help would be massively appreciated and even a cuppa of coffee donation would go to the first individual that helps me crack the solution, thanks for any support

Hi Benji,

Your cabling can be as follows:

Din plugs (male) from speaker output 1 on Beomaster to bare wire.
Bare wire to input shown on Cona (ensure correct polarity).

A second run of cable is required to allow bare wire from Cona outputs to Beovox.
If the Beovox have male DIN then use the female sockets.

In short, if the cable you have is long enough, visualise your final placement and cut the cable. The Cona will sit between the Beomaster and the Beovoxes acting a bit like a crossover.

On second thoughts, keep that cable (because it’s nice and original and would serve a pair of Beolab Pentas well) and visit http://www.soundsheavenly.com to order just the right cable at exactly the right length.

Hi,

I just recently aquired a Beovox Cona, and it seems to have soem years under the belt …

I did not test it yet; but I opened the cabinet and I observed that the gasket needs changing since it is falling apart.

That is not the isue; I am more interested to know if the insides of the Cone are legit or something has already been changed by the previous owner / owners ???

I am specially interested if the 8-inch woofer driver is still the original or not ?

What I could find is that the woofer is a VIFA P21WO-24 / 12  901; but no trace of it over the net …

I already searched the net for some internal information, but there is nothing.

Here are some pictures I took; can you help ?

Thanks a lot, Mirel.
