I know. I was only joking. Seeing that he showed them in car boot, I jokingly say that this was a car boot sale. Haha. Have fun with your a3040 Bongbo. Btw, what is your speaker setup 5.x, 7.x, 9.x etc ?

Thanks bro , running on mixed Dali ikons 7/ ikon 2 centers and Dali Zensors 7.1 with Svs sub... Trying to get approval to mount 2 more speakers in front of the wall to make it 9.1 but getting approval from my wife is harder then setting up the system.

Set up was easy and love the app which tells u a lot of things about the 3040 when playing with it. Here are some snap shot of the phone app

Yeah, even though my sub (Yamaha sw215) has two rca inputs, I only use one. From my yamaha sub pre out (I have 2 but just using one) to one of the sub inputs. Still works. Would using 2 inputs via Y-cable make it better?

One word to explain - "Kiasu" 😁
Some say better , some say the same

My personal opinion - it makes me NOT to worry to Y cable or not to Y cable and subconsciously telling myself sounds better because spent more money compared to a single cable. Hehe

My 2 cents - borrow a Y cable from your friend and if it works for u , invest in a Y cable . If not , u save some money for other upgrades . One less thing to worry about... Again if it does sound better , is very minimal that u can live with your existing single cable.

If your interest is to make your sound better , would recommend the below first before jumping into upgrading

-> check your position of speakers , setup with amp if really correct and room acoustics (kopi table blocking speakers? Sofa too close to speaker etc? ) I had friends who change systema like crazy and realized the problem was the room and Power as she stayed near factories in USJ. Bought a power regulator and organized her living room made him love her system again .

I'll keep the Y cable in mind. Funny you should mention the coffee table coz my back speakers are underneath it. Had to put them there as not to annoy Home Minister tongue.gif
