    Question Fixing faulty woofer Wharfedale

    So with the new arc enabled lg 5.1 I'm picking up for £80 this weekend, it has multiple hdmi in the back (as does the TV). Does it matter if I plug the Chromecast TV dongle into the TV or the back of the lg 5.1? So long as there's a hdmi connecting the TV arc to dvd arc I'm all good right?

My kitchen is fairly large so amp drives both pairs of kef using A/B wiring (had to hide cables). The living room set up is at other end of house...

    Question Fixing faulty woofer Wharfedale

    Thanks. I think you're right. I took it apart and can see that the tiny cable connecting to the back of the woofer had come loose and no amount of trying to stick it back in with a pair of tweezers worked... Urgh. The first 2 photos are of the offending speaker showing the cable loose. The last...
