Hi everyone,

I'm putting together my first bass shaker setup and could do with some advice. I'm completely new to speakers, amplifiers and wiring, so apologies if this is a basic question!

Things I've ordered

• 2 × Xcite XBS50-4 bass shakers
• Fosi Audio V1.0B amplifier
• Sabrent USB sound card
• PureLink OFC 2 × 1.5 mm² speaker cable

My plan

• One shaker mounted under the seat
• One shaker mounted to the pedal deck
• Potentially a smaller third shaker on my BDH H-pattern shifter in the future

What I'd like to do is attach a short cable permanently to each shaker, then use a male/female connector between that and the main speaker cable running through the rig.

The reason is I want to be able to remove the seat or pedal assembly easily without having to unscrew the speaker terminals every time.

ChatGPT suggested XT30U connectors, but I wanted to check with you guys whether that's actually the best option or if there's something more suited to speaker wiring.

Also, is the 2 × 1.5 mm² OFC speaker cable a good choice for this setup or would you have gone with something different?

What would you recommend for a clean, reliable setup that can be disconnected easily?

If you have done something similar, I'd really appreciate seeing photos of your setup or hearing what connectors you used.

Thanks!
