A Tough Question
What a great debate this thread was for me. Looking back over the replies, I just wanted to say you guys truely do make this site what it is. Very intelligent and thought provoking with plenty of humor too. It is nice to get away from the humdrum ... 
A Tough Question
Eulogytool,"You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake, we are come from the same compost heap" Maybe, from a scientific point of view I suppose so. It is also apparent that this dung ball of a movie didnt roll far from that heap either. I prefe... 
Multi-Channel Music: SSP/PrePro with Time Delay?..
Eldart, No, not 100%. I am at work at the moment. I am sure the setup allows tweaking distances, but it may have no effect when playing SACDs, I will consult the manual as soon as I can (which isnt exactly a mountain of information, BTW). The volu... 
Multi-Channel Music: SSP/PrePro with Time Delay?..
I agree, it is standard issue on every Pre/Pro I have seen. Eldart, thats curious my lowly DVP-NS900v has distance delay on every channel, SACD included. Does the newer 999ES not have this? Or Denons 2900? 
Satori Shotgun or Hologram
Rsbeck, I dont think 67chevelle made the assumption that Satori's/Holograms will make CDM-7NTs sound like N803s and neither do I. Dont get me wrong, I agree with you. Those are some pricey cables considering the cost of the CDMs. Maybe 67chevelle ... 
Satori Shotgun or Hologram
I have to apologize for my fellow A'goners smacking you around about your speakers. I had a pair of CDM-7NTs and sold them to a friend who wanted an upgrade. They are very competent speakers and really shine with certain types of music and HT too.... 
where do you cross over your ht setup
Eldartford, that makes sense. I can see were two Xovers set at different points with different slopes would interact and possibly get messy. Thanks much for the explanation of Xovers, I didnt know that. 
Please help me troubleshoot my processor
Does the distortion sound like white noise? Does this occur with all other input sources powered down?If you answered yes to either of these, then I would probably take it to a dealer or at least contact Krell. If it sounds like white noise, it ma... 
where do you cross over your ht setup
For lack of a better word, I fiddled around with the setup last night. Changing around the settings for large and small, Xovers (5hz increments), and the Sub Xover bypass. The jury is out on HT, but, the bass did improve with multi-channel music w... 
How many spare cables and power cords do you have?
Wow, that is a top-shelf box-o-goodies. My soon to be wife says I must stop or face the firing squad. Sigh. I will probably keep this stuff around. I have new house plans, which calls for a bonus room above the garage. Keep it on the lowdown, but ... 
where do you cross over your ht setup
John Z, I do exactly what you say not to, and I am not 100% satisfied with how my Sub sounds. Although 100% satisfied with audio is an oxymoron, especially with Subs. Anywho, can you or someone else, explain the technical reason the two filters wi... 
Different sound between two channels
If you switch speaker cables and the problem switchs speakers then....it is not the speaker. If the problem doesnt switch then....it is the speaker(unlikely) or one of its cables. Try this first. Put everything back as before.Then, remove the inpu... 
How many spare cables and power cords do you have?
2 PCs, 3 or 4 pairs of ICs, 2 pairs of speaker cables, at least 3 digital coaxials and one new unused optical. All are neatly colied in large clear tupperware plastic boxes. Thats just the fairly good stuff.Unkown numbers of cheap ICs, Coaxial cab... 
SACD VS DVD-AUDIO
SACD sounds better to me. Of course there are far more high end SACD players available than DVD-A. Which means more shops have them setup and inserted into really nice systems.But I digress, any Hi-Res format is better than none. 
JM Labs Beryllium
Alto $15000.00 / Nova $30000.00. Whoa nellie, thats a whole lot of money compared to the $2600.00 B & W CDM-9NT. Just one Utopia center channel speaker cost more than two pairs of CDMs!I have the 9s, they are mightily compentent in their price...
