Hello,
I still consider myself new to HA & HAI & Russound so forgive me if this is right in front of my nose... I have the HAI OPII and just got the Russound MCA-C5 (not installed yet) can I use just regular 4 wire cable (thermostat wire) for connecting the control pads MDK-C6 to the MCA-C5? and also Cat6 instead of 5e (I have Cat 6 easily available)? What did you use?
The RS232 connection from HAI to Russound, any special programming? I went into the Russound site and was expecting a download or something and didnt find one (found a marketing brochure on how easy it is to connect to each other).
Can I hookup more than one iBridge kit (just set it to a different input device number), my wifes musical taste is very different than mine, my kids, etc. Or is there a different piece of equipment that I should use instead of the iBridge kit? Does the DMS 3.1 have multiple iPod hookups? Can multiple zones access and listen to different content on the same device (doubt it, but thought I would ask)?
What size/quality speaker wiring are you using to connect to the speakers?
Any tips or suggestions pre-installation (Russound) for a newbie?
Thank You!!!
Dustin
