Need help with splitting XLR OUTPUT
Thanks for your help. I just ordered the Aphex unit. I was concerned about splitting the signal after the Velodyne amps since they are all SC1250 units and would send a corrected signal out to the JL Audio Gotham Subs of which they have their own ...

Left, Right & center cable home theater Cables Q
The left and right absolutely need to be the same length. If the center channel speaker is the exact same as your left and right speaker then it should be the same as well, if not, you can use a slightly different length. 
Whole House Surge Protection
A lot of power companies offer full house surge protection for your house for a monthly fee as well. It does nothing for the sound and picture of your system and I still use a seperate power conditioner for my system. On my larger room I use seper...

Meridian, I know my 861 has it and I am pretty sure some of their other models do as well. 
Audio research new ref2 phono stage
I have it as well as the AR7. It is really quite incredible. I had the Einstien XLR phono stage where the Ref 2 is now and I really like the Ref 2 better. I am going to be putting up the Tom Evans top of the line phono stage against the Ref 2 in a... 
Top notch speakers with their own sub
I have 2 systems and also like speakers with built in powered woofer/sub units. Right now I am using Avantgarde Duo Omegas in one system and the Zu Presence in another. I have used several others over the years as well and these are my 2 favorites... 
ICEPower vs SET
Why does Baskin Robbins sell 31 flavors and they never have the one I want when I go in? Everyone likes what they like. I agree with the synergy factor as well. 
Sensitive enough speakers for low power SET
I have gone through many sets of speakers for my set amps. I currently have the Zu Audio Presence which are good for a smaller room and use the Avantgarde Duo Omega's in a larger room. Some people don't care for horns though but I love them. There...

long RCA cables . . .where?
I had to run some very long interconnects as well and ended up using the Harmonic Technology Photon interconnects. They work great due to their technology for long runs without any loss of signal or rfi issues. They are costly though so it depends... 
Spectron Musician III - Can anyone comment on it?
The Spectrons are the most incredible high powered amps that I have ever heard and I have gone through or heard dozens. For a power hungry speaker like yours I would highly recommend the Spectrons and if you want to go all out, get a pair and use ... 
Tube amps good with Emerald Physics CS2 speakers?
I will also be doing some a/b comparisons in about 2 weeks. I have a Tom Evans Linear A in my Avantgarde Duo system and I just got a couple more amps to swap in and out of that system as well with the Emerald Physics. I will be using a tubed amp f...
