What is the Bu-ray plauyer that you are using? Strangely, in reviews on BD players from Oppo, Pioneer and/or other brands, it's been claimed that some players have better movie sound quality than that for CD, SACD and other audio-only playback, and vice versa. Assuming this is true, I would... | |

Subject: HELP! Will A95L Stutter with DVDs and Youtube Downloads? I can’t believe that Sony’s top model OLED TV has ... | |
55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey This week with hundreds in Sony Card points it’s time to buy a new TV. It’s probably laughable to those here but I don’t subscribe to any streaming or even basic cable service. I get news via internet, NY Times, et al. Except for free services l... | |
55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey But again, don’t you guys get some kind of eyestrain if or because your field of vision is overshot by your > 55” or > 65” screen size? I ask this because of this supremely relevant post by Dave in Green: THX recommends a “best seat-to-scr... | |
55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey I took my centre speaker over to two friends' who also believed a centre was not necessary, and after trying a few films with/without, they both bought a centre speaker and said it (watching a film), was a MUCH more involving experience with a mo... | |
55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey A word on center channel: Yes, center channel is the way to go. One consideration is room acoustics (or lack of them). When using 2 speakers to produce an "phantom" center channel, you have energy emitting from 2 speakers (often close to room bo... | |
55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey I’m barely 8’ from my 65” screen. My best tv is a 55” Oled in the bedroom. I don’t do surround sound anymore because the living room size has gotten much smaller. I miss the days of having a 20x25’ room. Those days are long gone. I wouldn’t ... | |
55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey You may not have room for this, but I offer this recommendation because it was a wonderful solution for 2 channel main systems. AWOL makes short throw laser projections and screens specially made for this purpose. Yes, I sure considered this bu... | |
55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey When you go to the movies (do people still do that?) where do you sit? How immersive do you want the experience? I usually try to sit where the screen fills my whole field of vision so usually try for the seats behind to the crossing isle. M... | |
55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey revel’s 226be is a nice sounding slender speaker if you ever wanted more room but I think they lack dynamics/snap next to a good horn. I would keep the horn and rock the phantom center. I watch a lot of vintage BDs from the 50s through the 70s.... | |
55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey Bigger=better every time. NAFTA hasn’t really changed my TV viewing habits. Don’t mean to rant, but yes, I sure can thank NAFTA legislators, the transnational investor elites they serve and conspirators like these bums for driving up the cost ... | |
55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey Thanks guys for the great feedback, though things aren’t good with a second look at the numbers. James’ room looks at least 50% bigger than mine, here on obscenely overpopulated, overtaxed Long Island, where the price of living space is equally ob... | |
List of most high end analog active crossovers ever made. The B4 is unbelievably versatile: high-pass and low-pass 1st/2nd/3rd/4th-order filters in 25Hz increments from 25Hz to 6375Hz. All discrete (Toshiba Jfets), no opamps or IC’s. I have three speakers and would leave the tweeter passively crossed.... | |
Best Sounding L/R Speakers for DVD/BD Movie Sound? > $4K/pair Speakers from Harman are real easy to listen to due to them having a drop of about 5db from bass to treble. They are detailed still but just an easy listen. I had a pair of 228be and while not by favorite speaker I owned they were outstanding for... | |
Best Sounding L/R Speakers for DVD/BD Movie Sound? > $4K/pair They are great speakers and very faithfully reproduce whatever is on the disk. Okay, but as I pointed out movie audio quality like the BD Edition of North by Northwest may comprise perhaps only 25% of my collection. So such speakers might disap... |
