S750 Speaker cable

Hi All
Does anybody know where to purchase the cables that run from the sub to the satellites as I require replacement cables for my S750 system?
I have tried maplin but with no success.
Also do creative still sell the speaker stands for the S750's? thay are not on there website.
Would creative be interested in selling these products directly to me?
Thanks

Matt,
The cable the original poster is referring to is from the sub to the satellites, not the 4:4 cable. Contact Customer Support if you need that cable to see if they can supply you with one.
As far as the colours go, I'm not sure what you mean, putting them into the jack? Or do you mean you need to know which colours (on the sub) are for which input? The manual should cover that, if you need other information please be more specific as to what exactly you need.

Missing s750 speaker wire

does anyone know where i can go about getting replacement speaker wire for the s750? i've moved a ridiculous amount of times and lost track of my rear speaker cables.

From what I can tell from my S750s, you should be able to go to any Radio Shack and buy a new wire. Just make sure that the plug in to the Sub woofer is the right size on the one end and it really wouldn't matter what the other end is because you plug in bare wire to the actual speaker itself. Find a 2 wire... err WIRE with the right connector for the Sub and strip it on the other end to connect to the speaker. Sound simple... yes? Make sure you get the right length of wire!

Not sure that I have selected the correct forum. Hope my questions are clearly stated.
Having problems connecting iMac(late 2006) running 10.7.5 to a Samsung Flat Screen TV using separate audio/speaker cable and HDMI standard cable, mini-DVI to HDMI video converter. TV displays generic Apple galaxy background and "some" windows (e.g. screen resolution choices). It does not show Mail or Safari menus. System preferences' display "gathered" the Samsung and chose its resolution. I did not find a way to select the Samsung as my display.
In addition to having old hardware, we have Verizon FIOS providing internet and TV access. Is there any way to make this work for us? We would like to stream video (Netflix) and view shows from the Web. Do we need Apple TV to do this? Or is it not possible with our old iMac? My husband thinks that our Airport could be a factor.
Thank you

Lately, I have been seeing a lot of posts with users trying to use their Macs/iMacs to mirror their streaming video from their Macs to an HDTV.
There are, actually, many alternatives to choose from than just from a Mac.
You need to have or invest in a WiFi capable router for all of these examples.
Apple TV only integrates with WiFi and newer Mac hardware. So, if you want to have total integrated experience, if you have a 2011 Mac or newer, you might as well pay the $100 for the AppleTV box.
If you have a older Mac, like I have noticed many users do, then you have other options.
If you want to elimate long cable clutter and having your Mac at the mercy of your TV all of the time, you can still use the AppleTV box independently or purchase cheaper alternative media streaming boxes from Roku, Sony, Boxee or any number of electronics manufacturers that now have media streaming boxes and media streaming capability built into DVD/Blu-ray players.
These eliminate long cable clutter by being close to the HDTV where shorter, less expensive cables can be used.
Another alternative for iPad users is to use an iPad with the USB/HDMI video adapter and use your iPad as the streaming box. This ties up your iPad in much the same way as it does with your Mac, but again the iPad can be close to the TV and use minimal cables to the TV.
Another alternative to is to use a combination of an iPad and your Mac to stream content that is only available to stream online from a computer. In this case, you can use a desktop remote app on your iPad and Mac. A good and cheap Desktop Remote app is Splashtop Remote. This allows you to completely connect your iPad remotely, over Wifi, to your iMac desktop. The app streams both video and sound to the iPad which is still connected to your HDTV. The resultant stream video picture will be smaller than the size of your HDTV, but it will still be plenty large enough to watch. Again, if you own a iPad and an Intel Mac, this method also allows minimal cabling to the TV.

A solution to the S750 speaker system problem

Well my s750 died just like everybody elses. But after creative wanted me to pay 75% of my purchase price, I found a better solution. Nope, I am not fixing the unit like you guy's. I do not see the need to fix a poorly design system! I am not sure if creative or indigo/bash/blade audio is to be blamed. But if I had to pick, I would say "indigo/bash/blade audio". Years ago before blade audio became indigo, I had a chance to visit their location in ontario Canada. This was just when they stop making the blade audio car amps.
While I was there, I happened to see this long list of brand names they had started to make amp modules for. Names like Harman International, Klipsch and so on. Anyway I cast the blame on indigo for this reason: Some years ago I had purchased a set of "harman international" infinity IL series speakers. Like our creative s750, the infinity shares a bash powered subwoofer system. And just like the s750 the infinity subwoofer like to blow up too! In the case of the infinity, the power supply was the weak link. The amp module in the infinity at that time, was built just like the blade audio car amps before. Which in my opinion is a much better design than what is being used in the s750. I remember one of the sale guy at circuit city at the time saying, "I wish we would drop this model". He went on to tell me the failure on the powered units were very high. You know there is a problem when the mid level Creative Inspire T7700 7.1, out last the flagship s750. Now, whats my better solution you guy's want to know? Two words , Simplifi Digital! The 7075a 7.1 amplifier along with Definitive Technology Pro Sub1000 and the remaing surround speakers from my s750 system. Yes, it did cost me more to go this route. But what I now have is a much more reliable system. And a sound that the s750 can only dream about. My s750 died while I was listening to Dave Bruebeck quartet "take five" at mid volume. With my current setup, I can listen mid volume all day long with no hiccups.
For those who my have the cash to spend. I recommend looking at my direction!? Keep this in mind, make sure whatever powered subwoofer you choose, is adjustable up to 50hz. The creative surround speakers dont play very well below 20hz. Also make sure whatever powered sub you choose don't use a BASH amplifier. For those looking at the s750 as a purchase, good luck. Or go over to partsexpress.com and get the Dayton Part Number 300-670, surround speakers. Then get the simplifi digital 7075 7.1 amplifier and power subwoofer of your choice and make a better/best system. Sorry Creative Labs! This post is NOT intended to cast negativity. I use and like the products you offer. I just do not like the s750, and the reasons are all over this forum and elsewhere on the net. I currently own 3 audigy 2zs sound cards, three Inspire t7700 speaker system, three sound blasters modems and yes, one defective/dead s750 speaker system. If anything use this post as a positive to what Creative Labs could offer in the future. A system like I now have, sure would be nice with the Creative name all over it.

The Simlifi Digital amplifier is one serious unit. This amp has one HUGE toroidal transformer inside of it! I was able to see it thru the vents on top of the cover.

Speaker Cable Quality

I'm decorating and want to install speaker wires in the wall before I buy a Megaworks system. What standard are Creative speaker wires? Can I buy any high quality speaker cable or does it have to be Creative cable. Naturally I'd like to buy the best as the wire is going in the wall.
I gather that there is a plug at either end of your cable.
Is this a standard jack plug?
I'd like to get the room finished before I install the speakers. Thanx

The creative speaker wire is of good quality. I use QED silver micro which is about the same guage, but silver plated to bring out the treble from the speakers a bit more - as long as bare wire is connected to the speaker and the speaker cable terminated eith RCA phono plugs on the other then the sound is fine. The full scale silver anni'versary are very thick and difficult to solder to the RCA phono plug- if you were to try Id suggest using a variable heat soldering station set to 300C to avoid cold solder points.

Alternative speaker cable for G500 (5.1)

I'm using G500 on X-fi XM

How about RCA connector and how to make them?

Thanks for the response- your comment "checking any receiver to make sure it has a multi-in jack that has an input etc" ? Do you mean output? I'm not aware of any home theatre receiver available with inputs for each speaker.
With the MediaCenter 2004 Edition software I do not have the option of changing settings for the sound card. I had originally planned on purchasing a receiver that passed audio through without any enhancements (AC3, Neo etc) instead relying on the card to handle conversions. With MCE it looks like I will have to use the external receiver to deal with changes. Is this going to work with the Audigy 2 ZS + MCE2004?

Creative Gigaworks S750 speaker placement

Hey Guys,
As I get deeper into how to improve the sound on my Gigaworks S750 I'm starting to experiment with proper speaker placement.
So far, I have the four floor stands for the side and rear channels.
And going by the book I have the side channels slightly past and behind where my ears are, and they are pointed toward each other, and not directly at my ears.
The two rear speakers are both behind me, but pointed straight toward the front of my room, and not directly toward my ears.
Is this how they are supposed to be? Or should the sides be right at my ear level and right to either side of my ears? Same with the rears? Should they be angled in toward my ears at my seating position?
The diagram in my manual doesn't seem to indicate that the speakers get angled toward the listener except the front center above the monitor.
But other sites all seem to want the speakers angled at the listener, unless these Creatives are doing something different to create the surround sound field?
Here's an industry diagram vs. the Creative manual.
Creative diagram for Gigaworks S750, unfortunately I can't scale it up larger, but refer to page 6 by scrolling down in the manual located at the link below.
http://www.scribd.com/doc/14711901/C...ks-S750-Manual
So which is the most optimal for my speakers? I'm using option A for my setup in the Creative Manual right now, but just want to know what I should be doing to have the sound setup correct for these speakers.

7.1 Speaker cable?

Alright, just bought a new Audigy 2 Notebook ZS, plugged it in to my computer, then attached the speaker cable to my Inspire T7700 7.1 system..... then realized the docking cable had no reception for the side speakers (like from the subwoofer to the docking cable, it's a grey plug).
So I guess I missed the boat on that one, with my Inspire T7700 I got a 4 male to 4 male speaker cable, leaving me with one too many and therefore no side speaker hookup.
So... where can I buy the new 4 male 3 male 7.1 speaker cable? Kinda sunk here with my side speakers, been searching the site and can't find the cable unless it's shipped with the sound system.
Thanks in advance.

SnIpErMiKe,
The Inspire 7700 should have come with the 7.1 cable. Have the package content again.
If you still do have it, it's best to contact support and see if they have this available.

Replacement Speaker Cables for Gigaworks S750

- Some of the cables for the satellite speakers in my system are not long enough for the room I'm trying to fit the speakers into. I've looked everywhere for cables that have the raw exposed wire on one end to connect to the back of the speaker and the single rca jack that goes into the subwoofer. Anyone have any ideas on this?

Where are you located? If you are in the USA, I can help you with trhe repair.

S750 speaker woes

I've had my s750 for almost three years now, and I've been fortunate not to have any problems up to this point. I was recently running the system with cmss disabled, so I was only receiving sound from the front left, front right, and subwoofer. Several days ago, I re-enabled CMSS and attempted to recalibrate my speaker seting.
Problem is, I'm not receiving sound from either the center speaker or the left side speaker. The other fi've speakers are working fine. I've plugged these speakers into the other speaker positions that are working, and the speakers work fine, which eliminates a problem with the speakers themselves or the wiring.
Is there something I'm specifically missing, because I can't think of anything that would cause such a problem with only two speakers unless something is wrong with the sub. Any help would be appreciated.
FYI, the card I'm running the s750 off of is an Audigy 2.

I've resolved the issue. I changed out my stereo jack connectors with the ones on my ddts-100. Problem solved.
I found out the center and side left were carried on the same stereo jack, which led me to thinking it might be a problem with the line between the soundcard and the sub amp.
Try checking that fadain, and ensure you have the jacks plugged in correctly. Pink looks like orange in poor light. If you have the same problem as I, you might just simply need a new 3 to 4 stereo connector.

Fed up with unplugging speaker cabl

Hi,
I have a xfi xtreme music card. i use software such as virtual dj. I run two channels out of the soundcard into an external mixer. I also have another cable running from the mixer to the line in on the soundcard so that I can record my mixes. I'm finding it a real pain having to keep switching cables at the back of the machine - if I want to watch a movie/play a game then I have to unplug all the cables used for my dj'ing and insert those for the 7. speakers. Is there anything someone can suggest to make this easier? Perhaps there is some sort of speaker switching hub or something that I could run all of my cables into and change the setup at the flick of a switch?thanks?

I just posted on this problem on another thread, before I found this one.
Personally, I am disgusted.
This is not a simple malfunction : it is a SERIOUS FIRE HAZARD!!
NOT a question of owners mistreating their Mac/Apple product but
A SERIOUS DESIGN/MATERIAL flaw.
Now that I have read this thread, I know I am not alone, as Apple support would have me believe.
The Store clerk (sorry I do not buy into the "Genious" thang) politely told me that somehow this
melted power cord was MY FAULT! Apparently, I have somehow "allowed" the cord to "bend" in
a direction that "stresses" the delicate item, and "caused" too much pressure at the junction which "made" the cord break.
GIVE ME A BREAK APPLE!!!! I do not care how pretty your power cord is!! I want it to last.
As I mentioned in my other post, I visit enough cafes to check this out. In fact i have told at least three people
a) not to leave this melted, wire exposed cord plugged in when it is out of their sight (FIRE HAZARD)
b) That they must attempt to at least tape the exposed wires.
Although, again, I DID tape mine and guess what? The standard industry electric tape DISOLVED the rubber on my cord.
What are we to do? Apple Support (yes, I appreciate their difficulties, and find them always very very polite has whezzled its way out of this question at least three times now!
OH - more on my "CrackBook" later...that's the OTHER Apple flaw I am spending much of my good time on trying to fix....
gosh I want to love you Apple! You're a nice guy, but NOT reliable marriage material!

Creative Inspire 6700 6.1 speaker cables

Hello,
I'm asking help if Creative could produce me a 10 meter version of the cables hilighted in the image bellow.The original ones are just 2 meters long and I need it in a bigger version.
Is it possible to produce it and send to me by mail? I'm willing to support the costs of production and shipping.
Thanks in advance.
Jorge Lopes

Thanks for the information!
I was really looking for an email address I could use asking this precise issue. Could you tell me? Since my product is discontinued I don't have any kind of direct contact, only premade answers. Additionaly they redirect us to the forums in search of answers.
Thanks in advance.
Jorge
Edit: I've managed to find a webpage with a form, that I filled with my question, this form associated with Creative shop.
I'll wait for they're answer.
In the mine while if you guys could check that out too, I would be very grateful!
Thanks.
