| Subwoofer for 2 channel preamp Since your pre-amp doesnt' have a cross-over for a sub, you are going to have to use the ones in the subs. Feed the output from your left channel to one sub and then an interconnect from the high pass on your sub to your left channel on your amp. ... | |
| Cal Audio mca 2500 and Dyn Confidence The Cal amp will drive the Confidence with ease. I'm using mine to drive a Mcintosh speakers set-up. Mcintosh LS360, CS350 center, WS350 surround. The LS360 is rated to handle 600 watts a channel. With two channel, the Cal amp clips at 750 watt. A... | |
| CAL Audio CL-15 or CL-2500 for redbook playback?? I'd say the Cl-2500. It's the last design the company produced. If you have a dac capable of handling it, the Cl-2500 upsamples. | |
| WOW Rediscovering an old fav.CAL CL2500 pre/pro I have the complete Cal 2500 series. The fact that is still is offering great performance 4 years latter, tell me that I made a good purchase. The amp is the star of the show however but in the two channel mode. I think you'd really be surprised a... | |
| Room mode ?'s Go to www.guidetohometheater.com and download the sweet spot calculator. You need to move your chair to the best spot in the room. Although the response of the room will not change, where you sit will effect which modes are a problem. For example ... | |
| What needs to go? It's your pre-amp. None of the pre/pros can beat a good two channel analog pre. It's almost impossible to keep all of the digital noise out of the signal when everything is in one box. Your speakers, sub and amp are certainly up to the task of rep... | |
| California Audio Labs Master Series The master series is better than the Alpha and Sigma units. It was a statement product and I believe around 10k. I have the 2500 series dvd player, the last dvd player Cal made and it outperforms my friends Cal dac, I'm not sure which one he has b... | |
| First pre/pro and hopefully last Classe has an entire new line that is due out in the fall with the top of the line model not going to be ready until the first quarter of 2005,the SSP AV900, the SSP AV300 and 600 will be out in fall. | |
| Processor Bandwidth necessary for HDTV No 45mhz isn't nearly enough. I have 100hz and I can still see a sligth degradation of the picture when my switcher is in the circuit. You can buy a separate switcher from someone like Extron that will handle the job. | |
| Bryston SP 1.7 Vs. Proceed AVP Bryston has a superior analog pre-amp section. However the AVP's dacs are much better. Because of this with a digital connection, the AVP is going to be more refined. I'm certain of it. I've owned the AVP and audtioned both in the same system. How... | |
| Floating ground: Any danger? Alternatives? From what I've read, you're OK if you are just floating one ground but it's dangerous to float them all. | |
| Has anyone auditioned the BeoLab 5 speakers? I've only heard them in a very bad acoustical environment at the Galleria in Houston. They were unbearablely harsh. I walked out of the store. I don't know if it was the set-up or electronics but they were easily the worst sounding speakers in the... | |
| Speakers for Home Theater/Audio for 8K Take a look at the Mcintosh Academy series. I'm very pleased with mine. If you go to the site there is a link to the review in The Perfect Vision. I purchased my stuff over the internet and used. I like the highs and bass more than the B&W N80... | |
| best for home theater? revel or aerial acoustics? My vote is for Revel. I think they are more detailed. Aerials are nice too but I perfer Revel. | |
| any thoughts on mcintosh ps112 subwoofer? I just purchased one. It's very fast and dynamic. I just watched "Open Range" with Kevin Costner. Boy, the shots are ballsitic with this sub and like cannon shots. It's extremely clean sounding with no over-hang. However, my room is 25 by 17 with ... |
