| 2/3 of the way there. HT crash course help wanted Yes, these more "mid/hifi" type AV products can certainly be nice and clean sounding, if even "musical" sounding. As an audiophile myself over the years, I too appreciate higher quality ambitious equipment options. Problem, however, with small dom... | |
| Anyone have experience with the new Acurus gear? Apparently the Act 4 is not out yet. I don't see how a few amps in their line is gunna make heaps of sales (i'm sure the custom market is full of amps for custom integrators to sell). So good luck to them on that.I will, however, wait to see on th... | |
| which subwofer is better? probably get more head-room and punch at high volumes with the JL subs. I sold Rel in past, which are very musical subs - Not so much slam and power with HT rocking, though.Personally, I like the combo of musicality and HT slam factor of the Parad... | |
| Anyone have experience with the new Acurus gear? Wow! Yes, amazing. I guess if audio/videophiles and enthusiests alike,even on this forum, don't have any interest or comments to add regarding the Acurus product line (given it's past reputation) I can (sadly) imagine a quick death to any hopes of... | |
| What more possibly could they offer consumers? Yep. I went to Consumer Electronics Show (CES) this past week in Vegas, and walked for hours through all the venues.

| Not considerin3D,isn't AV market rather stagnant? I agree with Criderfive, in that the Lossless multi-channel audio, Dolby HD and DTS master and such, were the last thing to get excited about in the AV market. In fact, I did sell my old modified/upgraded Acurus Act 3 (factory upgraded to Aragon S... | |

The more you do RIGHT, the better chances you have of attaining a quality effort, and great results.Sure, you can get buy, and probabaly be just fi... | |
| Two JL F212s verses two Velodyne 18 plus? The most important consideration for getting excellent bass response and performance from your system is to make absolutely sure that your sub is both placed properly in the room - in relation to your seating positions - and that it is both integr... | |
| Has LED caught up to Plasma? I, on the other hand, am going to wait it out for a dozen or so technology evolutions before buying, and have decided to wait for fully immersive, 3D holographic, visual surround display technology, that places me in the middle of a virtual world ... | |
| Amplification and Speakers In Huge Home Theater Mitch4t, yes you should be able to dial down/EQ the bass from full range speakers, which should work ok for your sidewall seating arrangements you presently have. Perceived bass will still be strong near sidewalls where you sit, but weaker in cent... | |
| Projector question While I'm certain someting like the Misubishi HC4000 is a superior projector over the likes of the Optoma HD65, the hd65 has a great bang for the buck factor. I find it's extemely portable, throws a pretty acceptable image on an HC gray screen of ... | |

I feel that there's something to be sa... | |
