Why is there so much Rowland gear for sale?
I second Danielk141's comments regarding Tater's remark! 
Anyone Tri-amped a Definitive Technology CLR3000?
My question would be, "why would you want to do this?!" It's going to be so tricky and difficult, that it doesn't make sense! First of all, the CLR3000 has it's own amp handling the demanding bass information. So that's finished with. The midrange... 
audio newbie question
Just incase you were, for some reason,considering the Klipsch's, the SB 1's and 2's are better than the RF series in my oppinion. Besides that however, if you are going for higher end speakers in the end, DO be prepared to experiment with differen... 
can i have a killer 2 channel AND HT setup at once
I think I should clarify my last post a bit better...for the record, I AM an advocate of the "long wall" set up for placing speakers! Usually, with less effort, you'll find you can get better sound overall with this set up. However, with your ment... 
can i have a killer 2 channel AND HT setup at once
Placing any speaker, virtuall, "in the corners" is not going to do well sonically for the most part. Also, the soundstage(if you listen to them on the long wall, spread to the sidewalls), assuming the long wall set up for both movies and HT in the... 
Classe owners...Please help with speaker selection
Used Thiel 1.5's are a good a sonic match with the older Classe amps. I couldnt' comment on that piece though. B&W Matrix 805's or 804's might fit that price range, and will sound good with the Classe's, albeit a slightly warmer sounding speak... 
Anyone have feedback on the CINEPRO 3K6SE GOLD ??
Here's my thinking on this amp...If you need that much power for an HT amplifier, why not use more sensitive/efficient speakers instead??? I mean, if you have speakers that are 86db sensitive at 1 watt, my first thought on that is that makes for a... 
Help: Thiel CS6 vs CS 2.3
....(but other than a brief listen to them in a showroom during a business trip, I don't have access to them to put them through their paces.)...Akaddict, may I make an assumption in that you are going to dealers and listening to speakers(systems)... 
Monoblocks vs Vertical bi-amping vs Horizontal bia
I dissagree with the "blanket stements" saying that verticle or horizontal, or whatever is the way to go. It depends on the situation largely. I can easily see where, at times, it would be better to possibly do one or the other. One possiblity for... 
Help: Thiel CS6 vs CS 2.3
NO waste on the McCormmack...but there are better amps. The McCormmack is a descent amp, which won't make for poor sound. I would consider others if you had the $. Even a used Pass X150 or 250 is much better. Heck, even used Threshold T200 is bett... 
The Worst Speaker you have ever heard.
This is funny to me....of all my years in retail audio, It never ceases to amaze me how people can BRIEFLY go listen to some SYSTEM set up somewhere, and make comments on WHAT THE SPEAKERS SOUNDED LIKE!!!! I think most everyone here is making refe... 
Outlaw ICBM hurt my 2-channel?
If your Bach's don't have any base, you should try checking your seating and speaker placments! You'll likely find that if there's not good bass from the speakers played full range(or even as small often), it's because you need to move things. The... 
Denon 3803 + vs Rotel or B&K receivers
Tonally, if you're looking for a sonic match for your Mirage 7Si's speakers, and are mostly into movies, for the price range the Denon is going to make a fine match overall. HOWEVER, speaking as someone who'e sold Denon and Mirage both since '95, ... 
Home Theater and Two Channel With Out Reciever?
Lot's and lots of audiophiles(with 2 channel hi-end systems) do what you're asking about doing for HT purposes. The problem is that when you do the DD/DTS processing in the DVD player, and connect it(DVD player) to your 2 channel preamp through An... 
Help: crossover for Thiels and Velodyne sub?
All you need to do is set the Velodyne's crossover all the way over to the highest setting, and use the external crossover's setting! Then the two won't overlap and cause problems. If the Velodyne has a "bypass", even better.Your concern isn't an ...
