There is one cable jack coming from the back of the computer, going to the subwoofer. Then there are three cables coming from the back of the subwoofer, going to the speakers and control pod. I already repaired the one speaker wire (cut and spliced). If I understand you correctly, I should carefully recheck all the other wires for additional breaks (cat teeth marks). If there is no obvious damage, I intend to send the whole speaker system back to Bose for repair.
