| Which speakers are ideal to pair with a Yamaha as3200 The IsoAcoustics are good but it’s about 3 things..Getting the speakers elevated to where the tweeters are more aligned with the ears..Getting the speakers pulled out from the back wall enough to allow the soundstage to develop & getting the o... | |
| Another Day, Another Upgrade. If you don't mind this extremely invasive question,what was the total financial expenditure to treat the room the way you have done? | |
| Which speakers are ideal to pair with a Yamaha as3200 You could easily make do with that room..Simply moving that white chair away from the front left speaker,then putting the speakers on appropriate stands(they don't have to be expensive or fancy,just sturdy & solid) pulled out even 18" would he... | |
| Great recordings with great harmonies from 1960s SOOOOOO much incredible music from the 60's... Great harmonies? Crosby Stills Nash & Young spring to mind..A HIGHLY underrated & overlooked band with excellent harmonies & some downright fun tunes,The Monkeys... @mapman WE DO,it's cal... | |

| PMC Twenty 22 standmount (discontinued) vs Dynaudio Contour 20 standmount (discontinued) I’ve owned several pairs of Dynaudio’s including Audience 42,52,52SE,Excite X14 & X18’s...I have also demo’d older pairs of Contours & Confidence... IMO they were never really really good until the Excite line & Countour line of the s... | |

| Best Receiver for “Mid-Fi” System? For those recommending Yamaha,have a look at the specs..Yamaha rates their surround receivers at specified power,1 channel driven(NOT all 5 channels at the same time)& at ONLY 1Khz-20Khz.(NOT 20 hz.-20Khz.)..This smacks of a weak amplifier &am... | |
| Best Receiver for “Mid-Fi” System? @nankaroad since Outlaw Audio was mentioned it got me thinking..You can get a new 5 channel amp from them that should handle those speakers pretty well for about $800.00.....Then you should be able to go to USAM & find a decent older surround ... | |

| ??? Why Non Current Limiting Surge Protection ??? @jea48 Yea that thread is why I posted this..To me it makes sense to want current limiting during a surge since the load stays the same & voltage increases ohms law says current will also increase... .I can’t see it affecting a power amplifier... | |
