| home theatre questions For best value I would suggest that you look at B-Stock PSB Image Series Speakers. I agree with an earlier responder on Denon and Sony ES receivers. I would also add the Yamaha RX series of receivers. For a video source look for an inexpensive Pan... | |
| Rotel RMB 1095 - no 12 volt trigger A device like the Panamax Max 5100 has its own dc trigger input which will then turn-on a poweramp connected to one of it's switched high current outlets. The down side is that its going to set you back a few more bucks. | |
| Please help me tame the bass beast I suspect that you have a room resonance problem. To find the approximate frequency at which a room will resonate divide 565 by the room dimension or in your case 565/18 = 31.5Hz and 565/12 = 47Hz. By taking multiples of these fundamentals you get... | |

| Frequency ranges At www.psbspeakers.com under the heading Audio/Video Background there is a chart "The Frequencies of Music" which shows the frequency range of various musical instruments. This should complement the information given above by Sean and Sdcampbell. | |

| Denon AVR3300 fan = too noisy...help? I had a Denon AVR 3300 that had an overheat problem -- it would shut down frequently. It was sent to Denon for repair and when it was returned it had the same problem that you are experiencing. Like you, I was happy with the sonic performance but ... |
