Speaker wire cut, want to fix myself - which is the best way to connect the wires back together?

Some how, one of the wires going to my left-center speaker got cut in half. Not sure if it was the vacuum or my dog........anyway, I want to fix it, so - would you recommend butt-connectors, soldering the wire back together, or some other method?
Also, does it matter which wires connect back together? The wires are identicle (smooth covering) and both wires appear to be copper........ I was just wondering if anything would happen if you were to connect the wires back together, but backwards.
Please let me know so I can get this fixed quickly.
Thanks,

Go to the above link and listen to the Pink Noise Monaural and the Pink Noise with Reversed Polarity tests. When a speaker is of opposite polarity, that means that the wires are connected backwards (positive to black and negative to red). If this happens, when your speaker should move out it'll move in and vice versa. This makes the sound seem to come from everywhere but the speaker. Play the tests to see what I mean.
If you solder your wires back together and notice this problem with your speaker, just reverse the connection to the speaker itself and you should be okay.

  • Iphone 4s coming friday, what is the best way to get the notes content from iphone 4 to 4s without doing a restore? i want the new phone to be totally new but not sure how to get notes content across.

    What is the best way to get the notes content from iphone 4 to 4s without doing a restore? i want the new phone to be totally new but not sure how to get notes content across. If I do a restore as I have when previously from one iphone to another it has shown (in settings, usage) the cumulative usage from previous phones so all the hours of calls on all previous iphones will be displayed even though its brand new. Anyone know how I can get my notes (from standard iphone notes app) to my new iphone 4s without restoring from previous iphone 4. Thanks for any help offered.

    First, if you haven't updated to iTunes 10.5, please update now as you will need it for the iPhone 4S and iOS 5.
    Once you're done installing iTunes 10.5, open it. Connect your iPhone to iTunes using the USB cable. Once your iPhone pops up right click on it. For example: an iPhone will appear and it will say "Ryan's iPhone."
    Right click on it and select "Backup" from the dropdown menu. It will start backing up. This should backup your notes.
    Please tell me if you have any problems with backing up.
    Once you backup and get your iPhone 4S, you must follow these steps. If you don't follow these steps, you will not be able to get your notes on your new iPhone 4S.
    Open up iTunes again then right click on your device (iPhone 4S). Once you do you will see a dropdown menu. It will say "Restore from Backup..." Select this and it'll ask for a backup, select it from the dropdown menu. For example "Ryan's iPhone - October 12, 2011." Pick that and it will restore to your backup. Do this when you get your iPhone 4S so you will not lose anything. Even though you're restoring, you're getting back, since you're getting the previous settings, notes, contacts, mail and other settings from your old iPhone. You'll still have Siri though! So, restore when you first get it. Also frequently backup your device, as it will be worth it. You can restore from a backup if something goes wrong or save your data for a future update.
    Once you do that, you should have your notes on your new iPhone 4S and iOS 5.
    Please tell me if you need any help.
    I hoped I answered your questions and solved your problem!

  • I want to get good wifi in my house . I currently have a time warner modem/router separate from my phone modem but my upstairs does not get good reception. What would be the best way to get the best wifi if I started from scratch

    I have a combination modem/router from time warner that is separate from my phone line but I get bad reception on my apple tv an ipads upstairs in my house. I would like to fix this and want to know the best way to go about it . Whether getting two modems and routers or just one base station. Please help

    It is possible to extend a WiFI network using Apple's Airport Express, Airport Extreme Base Station, or even a Time Capsule. However  the router that is creating the network (the one you have downstairs) must be configurable to permit another WiFi device to extend the network. All Apple WiFi routers can be configured that way, but there are many third party WiFi routers that cannot. The two routers can be connected wirlessly or by ethernet. From your description I suspect ethernet would be prefereable if yoiu had a good way of routing the cable.

  • Which is the best way to transfer the file through the LAN

    I need to transfer files of Size in MB from one PC to another. I have done it by File Copy function with the file path "\\Receiver\C:\File.txt". but it takes 1 Sec approximately for the 10KB of file size. I also need to monitor the file transfer progress. Please suggest the best way to transfer file faster.

    Thanks for the Valuable feedback.
    Actually the File format I  have to tranfer is *.vlf (these file are taken for printing)  which is of few MB of size  I didnt try to transfer this format file. For the testing purpose I have tried with text files.
    Please tell me how to address the destination path (administrative
    share of C$ ). I dont know about UNC path.
    In my Code:
    After transferring files to the destination path (path - which is always accessed by the Printer).  I have to  send command to the PLC that triggers the printer then printer take these files. After these cycle complete, I replace the files with the File Copy Function then again printer is triggered by the PLC - command.  If the PLC command sent after the file transfer sequence, the PLC will immediately triggers the printer to print the file. I have nearly 500ms of time to transfer two of these files.
    All i want to know is File Copy function completes its job after transfer or it just commands to do so. I should not give the command to plc while file tranfer in progress.
    Also please tell me is it possible to monitor the file being transfered ?
    Thanks & Regards

  • Which is the best way to migrate the SQL SERVER 2000 Database to SQL SERVER 2003 Database?

    Hi,
        I  need to migrate the Production database sql server 2000 to Sql server 2003, Please give me the best idea to migrate the database without any loss data, credentials and  Objects. 
    Nandha Kumar

    SQL server does not have any version named SQL server 2003 please check the version correctly it should be either SQL 2005,2008,2008 R2,2012
    You can use the backup/restore to upgrade the SQL 2000 database to till SQL 2005,2008,2008R2
    For SQL Server 2000 to 2012
    First upgrade from SQL 2000 database to either SQL 2005, 2008 or 2008R2 and than upgrade it to SQL 2012.

    And after migration to SQL 2005 or 2008, if you want to script the database than can generate scripts pick DB and check off "script all objects in the selected database".

    You can upgrade from SQL Server 2005, SQL Server 2008, and SQL Server 2008 R2 to SQL Server 2012.

    Recent software upgrades has changed the way my iPhone syncs with my macbook and items entered on my iPhone are no longer uploaded to my macbook. I've tried to fix it and seem to have made things worse, my iPhone now has a long list of calanders that I don't want and can't delete and nothing is uploading to my macbook.

    You need to look at Mac's iTunes, check  > System Preferences > iCloud.

  • Which encryption method is the best way to secure the data tranfer

    Hi ,
    I want to configure the Encryption between two cisco Wan routers(3845 & 3825).
    We use 50MB leased line connection and transfer the data. I also configured the QOS to limit the data transfer rate to 20MB on the same pipe and it's working fine.We also use the same pipe for trading purpose too. That's why I limit 20MB for data(copy) transfer between two hosts.
    Which encryption method should I use to secure the data transfer?
    Plese kinldy advise .
    Thanks,

    I would recommend AES256.
    I would also recommend a VTI tunnel vs. GRE/IPSec.  However, both, depending on your IOS, should support AES256.
    Encryption will demand more from your routers.  I think the 3845 should be able to support 20 Mbps encrypted, not as sure about the 3825.  (BTW, if you have 50 Mbps LL, why are you limited transfer rate to 20 Mbps?)
    Also BTW, there's much involved in setting up encrypted tunnels for optimal performance.  Also see: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/ip/generic-routing-encapsulation-gre/25885-pmtud-ipfrag.html

  • I want to use ZFS filesystem compression on a history database with read-only tablespaces.  What is the best way to get the datafiles compressed?

    I have 5 history databases that total about 2.2 Terabytes. They use about 15 filesystems, but I can start with 2 that are isolated to only one database.  I have asked for ZFS compression to be set on the filesystems, but since these are read-only tablespaces, I do not think any compression will happen.  Can I simply offline, copy and rename the files from one filesystem to the other to make the compression happen?

    just rsync the files to a compressed Zpool. do this using shadow migration, and you only loose access to the data for a few seconds.
    1) make new dataset with compression
    2) enable shadow migration between the new and old
    3) change the database to use the new location
    4) watch as data is automatically copied and compressed :-)
    the the down side, you need extra space to pull the off.

    I can find online new in unopened box a 2012 iMac 27" i7 with 1T Fusion Drive for $1899 no sales tax.  This seems like a pretty good deal since I notice the same is available from Apple refurbished for $100 more plus sales tax.  I know that they say the Fusion drive is a lot faster on 2013 models but some of the speed tests I reviewed online showed the 2012 i7 and 2013 i7 very close on speed for both storage and processing.  Any thoughts?
    I don't like changing batteries so I would buy a separate Apple keyboard with numeric pad since it only comes with wireless keyboard.  I'm a trackpad enthusiast having been using my macbook pro trackpad with current set up; and I am prepared to buy the Apple trackpad and replace batteries every 2 months but I would greatly prefer USB connection and rechargeable trackpact.  I know Logitech makes one so if anyone is using and knows how it compares to Apple's I'm all ears.

    You can use USB for the Apple trackpad.
