        Speakon sockets, Or the speakon plugs? Internal wiringnyou canngetnaway with almost any wire as long as its nice and thick and keep it as short asnyou can. Dont forget patch leads to go from the mixer to the active crossover and the patch leads to go from the active crossover to the amps too. Again if your loading the amps and active crossover into one Rack/Box make those patch leads s short as you can without stressing them

        By patching what do you mean? Like with tape? And 'nice and thick' would 1.5mm do? Or does it have to be thicker? Loool you never answered the guy's question who started this chat

        Balanced 1/4 inch cables or xlrs are usually ideal. The guitar cables type are usually unbalanced 1/4 inch. Depends what inputs and outputs you have on your gear, which cables you want to use. If balanced XLR is an option on the xover and the amps, just use those. The cables usually latch and it prevent accidental unplugging when moving the gear around.

        Okay I'll make sure they're at least balanced, but at least I know what I'm looking for, thanks

        Can you have a kick bin on top of a bass bin? Coz I heard kick bins should be on the floor?

        Kick bins sit on top of bass bins all the time... its how most people stack them.
