| Nordost vs Chord Co Personally, I love Blue Heavens. They aren't perfect though: A little bright sounding with some gear. They also seem a little more likely to pick up outside noise.On the + side: They are very airy and open sound. I've never found them to dull or i... | |
| would B&W work with cheap japanese recievers? Go for 3 matching fronts.It will sound awful for theater with junk as the center channel. In 5.1 or 7.1, the center gets the most work.If you can only get Right and Left now, your next move should be the matching center. | |
| Receiver shutting down during high loads Have you changed speakers?Is this a 22volt unit that has been converted to 110v?Are you using a transformer to convert it to 110?Many speakers' impedance will drop when pushed hard. If your nominal impedance is dropping from 8 ohms to 5 or 6, that... | |

| Plasma vs LCD help, which is better? Looking at flat screen to hang on the wall.I thought DLP was front or rear projection only? | |

| Differences with CD ripping speeds audio folklore? From personal experience: Many beat up CD's don't seem to rip well at higher speeds. If I get write errors, I will slow down the speed and usually it will go. | |

| Magnepan MG 10 QR Sorry to be slow.The 12's are a big difference.However, you will always have a narrow "sweet spot" with maggies (except Tympanies).The PS Audio will drive them alright.You can never have enough wattage with Maggies. I did run my 10.1's with a 17 w... | |
| Magnepan MG 10 QR Sweet sound but an extremely narrow "sweet spot".Extremely inefficient. 100 watts min, I'd get more like 225.Bass wasn't an issue with me unless you like thumping.They sound best 3-5 feet from any walls. If you need to put them closer to a wall, j... | |
| mouse pads...cheap isolation tweak??????? Wait till they melt to your gear.....Also, it should be really good for the equipment to hold in extra heat! | |
| How to get 2 Channel and Home theater in one packa I still will stick to my Anthem pre/pro/tuner with 2 channel mode which bypasses all HT processing when I want.In addition, it allows me to enjoy DVD/A and SACD when I feel like it.Yes, I do have a 2 channel tube system upstairs but find myself us... | |
| speakers efficiency THX = to be THX certified, equipment must meet certain standards such as sustained volume at 110db.Ultra THX is even harder with 112db.Many amps/speakers can't handle these loads. If your audio gear can produce 112db continuous, it means that you ... | |
