I am a newbie to Meridian that picked up at an auction the following “system”

1 – 568 Surround Processor
1 – 586.2 DVD Player
2 – DSP6000
2 – DSP5000
1 – DSP5000C
1 – M2500 Sub

Unfortunately except for the DSP6000 speaker cable to hook the tweeter to the main speaker, it came with no cables. I have no knowledge of Meridian, but do have an engineering background.

In looking around I find that I cannot just buy the cables (or connectors) that hookup the system. So I had a Meridian dealer estimate the cost to put the system together and it was a lot more $ than I expected. So I would like anyone who would care to comment on if they would recommend even attempting DIY as from what I can tell, you cannot just get the materials needed to hookup the system. As for example the quote said I needed 1 M lead and 13 S lead adaptors, but I am not sure I can obtain those unless I am a Meridian dealer, is that true?

Basically just looking for opinions on DIY and if recommended any points on how to get started, especially in terms of getting the cable / connectors.

Thanks in advance for any help.

568, 586.2, DSP6000, DSP5000, DSP5000C, M2500
