Need a subwoofer reccomendation.....
Yes, something about wanting your amp to feed the Rel so it will have the same character as what's coming out of your speakers?This makes sense but I'd rather have the option if the sub has its own amp.

My concern with Rel is that they have limited hook-up options.I think they insist that you run speaker wire to them and don't have line-level inputs?Am I totally off-base here? 
Need a subwoofer reccomendation.....
Yes, I called B&W tech (in L.A.) who said "send me the board". As I had to open the box anyway, I looked around (on the board) and found the fuse. I removed and took to a freelance elec-tech here in 'Vegas who provided some new ones.Popped it ... 
Help choosing an amp for Thiel 2.7s
I'm using Thiel 2.4 SE (great speakers BTW) with a BAT VK300-Se integrated (300 watts @ 4 ohms).Don't be afraid to turn up the volume on your Thiel's.This may solve your problem.

Q: Is your sub really "blown"?My B&W ASW685 stopped working but it was only a blown fuse (fixed it myself).This could be your problem. 
oppo 105d straightup
I prefer CD playback through my Rega DAC -just find it more musical.The Oppo is a wee bit "in your face".The Oppo is a little better with SACD (XLR output) but here I don't have a choice.I'm not knocking Oppo. It is a great value.I'll probably tra... 
Idea for Audio and Power Cables
Here's another idea for containing stray electrons (Tara Labs sells a cable that suspends the conductors in a vacuum and charges $15,000 for speaker cable).https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u19QfJWI1oQIf Sulfur Hexafluoride can neutralize a stun gun... 
My ceramic tweeter change to dark color - Help
Does this tweeter use ferro-fluid (used as a suspension agent)?Perhaps its containment has ruptured allowing the fluid to seep unto the driver? 
Looking for Device to Boost Sound from a Home-Secu
Try talking to your security service. They can do almost anything if you're willing to pay for it. 
turn off...
If you press the "Pure Audio" button (under the Netflix button) all video circuits are powered down and should reduce the heat.What's important (to me) is when is the laser turned off?These boogers are costly to replace. The laser in an audio play... 
I am going to build a listening room
Make sure your basement won't flood. Next, bring in an electrician and discuss your power needs. finally, survey the soundproofing landscape (sheet vinyl, alternating studs, etc.) to keep the sound to yourself. Good luck! 
Help - new house - new setup?
So your room has the same floor dimensions as my living room but the ceiling is three times higher? Hmmmm...For more bass reinforcement, try a Martin-Logan Descent sub.For more speaker SPLs (and bass) try an Eggelstonworks Andra III.Although I hea... 
PLEASE: Re Oppo 105 Darbee

Beautiful Classical Smaller Pieces, duo,trio,etc
I like "The Complete Mozart Divertimentos" NY Philomusica records, Disk 2.I was driving home late, after a brutal day at work, and heard a track on the radio.It was so beautiful and otherworldly that I felt like time stopped and I was dreaming. 
Audio out to RCA input on new Sony TV's?
New TVs have 2 channel audio-out via a newer HDMI standard (1.3a? 1.4?) -I can't remember off the TOMH.You must have an AVR with this newer standard and then feed you preamp with RCA cables from the AVR L/R outputs.Hope this works...
