Some of the best speakers made are not thx certified. B&W was making excellent speakers before there was even such a spec. For the most part you can ignore it, but it does have it's uses. For example I purchased a hi-end surround processor that was not thx certifed and this did not concern me. However one of my complaints is that the front two channels are not adjustable for delay. Had it been a thx certified unit it would have had to have included this feature to be so certifed.
Am I heading in the right direction?
I'm putting together my first system & I would appreciate it if you could tell me if I'm heading in the right direction! Yesterday I bought (1) Denon AVC-A10SE (maybe different code in the US)THX Surround EX.(2)B&W CDM7SE's as front speakers (Cobra cables)(3) Pioneer Elite DV-05 (Ordered from the US, due to disablement of regional settings & Macro-vision), but now I'm not sure how to proceed. My intention was to get identical rear speakers & the B&W CDMCSE...? My biggest worry is due to the B&W's not being THX Certified, should this in anyway effect my listening enjoyment? I hope these questions aren't too daft!.. I'm new at this! Thanks " An Englishman in Japan"
