The long and sort of it, is that I'm a little disappointed in the lack of "punch" of the HK audio system. So I'm gathering things to hopefully install some subs I have laying around this weekend.
Pulled these vintage pieces out of storage. An Infinity Kappa 102a 100 watt x 2 amp which is bridgeable and 1 ohm stable and a pair of Cadence Shockwave 10" low enclosure volume (similar to solo barics) 4ohm DVC subs. The 4 ohm DVCs from each sub are wired in parallel yielding 2 ohms and then the two subs are wired in parallel to yield a 1 ohm load. Then the amp is run with the 2 channels bridged at 1 ohm so, from what I recall, it will run an equivalent of 800+ watts to the speakers.
I've ordered an AudioControl LC2i line out converter which will de-amplify, and massage the signal for the amp.
Does anyone have or can they get the pinout for the HK amplifier? It is part# 96370-J5000
In the subwoofer issues thread @AV8R posted a schematic but it seems to be missing the page for the HK system.
Do you think they would be the same plugs for both systems? If I can't find anything I guess I will sit there with an AA or 9V battery and see if I can find wire pairs that make the speakers go crack.
Once I get wire pairs identified I'll need to find out if it's better to use the signal from the subs or the rear doors. The subs would have a low pass crossover point set so I'd prefer not to use them. The only question remains, do the speakers in the doors receive full range signal or do they have a high pass filter to remove the bass frequencies that the subwoofer will produce...
