Voice Kraft VK 5500 amplifier and four-wire speakers from the Panasonic AK44 tow

Question

Hello. I have two columns from the Panasonic SA-AK 44 tower. In one column there are two larger speakers, I think bass and one soprano. Four wires come out of the column: black and red, separated from one cable, and blue and gray, also split in this way. The graphics below show the tower and...

The loudspeakers from the tower can be easily connected to any amplifier. They have separate wires for low and high tones such bi-wiring. This Voice Kraft is not the best choice, it is better to buy some normal receiver if you are listening to the radio.

Rieju · Answer

I don't care about the radio, more about connecting a phone / laptop to AUX. Is that good?

osiniak75 · Answer

Nada but if you buy it, sooner or later you will find that I chill it. Look better for a normal amplifier or receiver with AUX input without readers, karaoke and other whirlpools.

The 99% loudspeakers do not have crossovers, only the signal was cut off appropriately at the end in the tower, so if you connect to the amplifier it will sound bad and with a larger deviation of the volume potentiometer to the right, you will definitely damage them. You have to undress and see what's inside. The amplifier you want to buy is total trash, better buy the 2.1 Tracer set dedicated to pc. You can buy an amplifier definitely better only used for a few hundred zlotys. e.g. unitra ws 315 or another brand with 2x15-2x25W power. It will definitely be better.

Rieju · Answer

There is such a Unitra model at Allegro at a good price, but I have cables without terminals, and I don't know how to connect it, there are two sockets for such a plus, cross and a cube. Probably two poles. Braid the cables red and blue and the other two and put them there, or maybe I will find such terminals somewhere? Take pictures of these columns inside?

osiniak75 · Answer

Removing the interior of the speakers may allow you to remove one wire and simplify connection, it all depends on what is inside. These older unitry amplifiers have din plug outputs available for purchase at any electronics store

Rieju · Answer

The amplifier in any case order or still hold to evaluate these photos?

osiniak75 · Answer

The speakers have to be connected to something. Do you want to buy this for PLN 120? The price is a little excessive but you can treat it as a capital investment.

Rieju · Answer

That's exactly what I mean.

And as for this price, I can give so much, you must also take into account that this is the only amplifier on Allegro and OLX, the same guest sells. Unless you recommend some other models.

I put pictures. I assume the black and red cables come out of this third speaker in the back. I hope this will give you some view, if you need to "dig deeper" let me know, I'll do more. I am sorry that so much dust on them but I decided to clean after curling.

anet870 · Answer

See if there is any element in the midrange speaker (silver) between the cable and the speaker, the same in the yellow woofer. The resistance you get must be at least 6 ohms for such a set with ws to be viable. Admittedly, with such a ws315 with an o11d equalizer I powered the Amfiton 50ac-022 speakers in 4 ohms and lived for many years, but it was necessary to pay attention to the amplifier's temperature when it was spinning high. You can look at some old Sony, Technics, Philips, Sansui, Grundig etc. It's good that they are not on the STK terminals because it's difficult to fix now because of the availability of elements, just like the tower from which you have speakers.

Rieju · Answer

I will not play it loudly, it can't cope with the speakers built into the laptop. I insert pictures of cables from a small speaker and a large one without a cover.

There are no elements between the cables and speakers, only small.

Rieju · Answer

I'm adding yellow, which I forgot. I also looked carefully at the cable from it in the housing, but also the lack of any element.

Józio17 · Answer

The loudspeakers without modification are not suitable for this amplifier (no crossovers). The original tower has two amplifiers for one channel and they do it as crossovers.

Rieju · Answer

So how can you change them?

anet870 · Answer

It's a bad thing to improve, a 3-way crossover could be useful. Then it will sound as it should. For the silent buzz buy the Amplifier you want but you can damage it when you play louder

Rieju · Answer

Damage the amplifier? Would it fall for good or would it be repairable? I listen for max 20 WAT. Order this Unitra then?

osiniak75 · Answer

Maybe something like this It is currently on Alledrogo supports loudspeakers from 4?, output on transistors, AUX input on RCA and ordinary loudspeaker terminals. The price is also a bit excessive, but it is a bit vintage. Unitra is a simple amplifier, it will be repaired by any home-grown electronics. You will make the loudspeakers like most marketers' producers, by adding a capacitor to the midrange (tweeter already) and connecting everything in parallel. There is also something like that, I have such a German Tosca only better made and better sounding.

Rieju · Answer

I bought Toshiba. I am asking you for further observation of the topic, when it comes, we will think about the speakers, in the meantime what capacitors to buy? And do you connect the third woofer and the capacitor to it? Because you can't see any there. Connect in this way:
