Dual Inputs_Types/Materials Benefits?


Recommended Posts

I am looking into dual inputs.

Which are the best metals to use? Where are places to buy? price range to be expected? Toomaker and audioanonomous(sorry if spelled wrong) are only I know of.

Give me opitons and benefits if possible and a price range and contact info if you have or know where to buy.

thanks!!

I got a set I will sell for 30 bucks from toolmaker

Frist set I got I don't like them the pole piece that gos to the amp is a liittle smaller that 1/0 hole and there is only about 30% contact area vs almost 100% contact area if you use just normal 1 run of 1/0 stripped wire I don't see them as a benifit

But again I got some to sell for cheap

Have you ever had your woofers blown?

i already bought a set of toolmakers from a member on here. I believe they are aluminium. which is why i am asking this question. i believe there are copper dual inputs and others?

i want to know what is out there so i know what to buy. i am considering selling the ones i already have

I have never seen a copper one but that would be best second in line would be alum. But aagain the pole piece has to be right I don't see the point of having 2 runs of 1/0 if only 30% of that piece is making contact with the amps inputs

Oh and I mean gold would be best followed by copper then alum.

so how many dual inputs does toolmaker make? just the ones I have? So they only make aluminium ones?

and please explain "But aagain the pole piece has to be right I don't see the point of having 2 runs of 1/0 if only 30% of that piece is making contact with the amps inputs"

edit: nevermind, i got it. the "pole piece" that attaches to amp is the size of 1/0, it just looks smaller in picture

Sactown says there are copper ones I have just never seen them

K so take your dual input without wire attached put in your amp and tighten it down now look at pole the screw is locking down on only part of the bottom half is making contact to your amps imput hole unless I got an oversized 1/0 input on my amp there is only about 30% contact between the 2

so what is your opinion on dual inputs? is it a waste? have you done tests on gains or losses? im debating whether or not to use it. cause i know what your saying, it doesnt fill the whole terminal like my Knu Kollussus does. and the wire is 100 percent copper
