Hi,
I have an Altec Lansing ADA885-THX surround system on my computer.
My cat bit the wire on the right surround rear speaker and now I get static noises. Can I cut & splice the wire and still have it work, or do I need to replace the entire wire. The wire is solid at the speaker end and a plug at the other end for plugging into my subwoofer.
I would need a repair manual in order to see how to get into the rear speaker box, because I don’t visually see any screws or places to open it up.
The information written on the wire is “AWM 2468 VW-1 80oC E154770 AWG 20X20”. This wire has two sides with that little crease down the center. The other side has “-.-.-.-.-.-.-” continuous along the cord and the dots are even with the dashes. I couldn’t create that here.
It is a very tiny wire, but with a magnifying glass I could see the exposed wire were she had bitten the wire.
I bought the computer and all back in 2000, however the first sound system broke and Dell sent me a whole new system to replace it and this one has worked fine ever since until my cat bit the wire.
I hope someone can help me find a way to replace this wire. The sound equipment itself is still good.
Thank you,
