| Which cable do you think is most important? I would suggest that the next few dollars you spend are on fixing problems in your room instead of trying to improve your system with cables. If you are going to go the cable route, make sure that you do BLIND A:B tests.....because in most cases, ... | |
| Suggestions on a home theater processor? Don't get too hung up on internal component specs and perceptions of quality....as a matter of fact, don't get too hung up on specs at all. The rotel and high end Onkyo/Integras use good components as do the phantomware boxes (997 and Emotiva). Th... | |
| Which would you prefer ATI 2505 vs Cary Cinema 5 Since I wouldn't want to rewire my home or future homes, I would pick the Cary. The ATI 2505 is a wonderful amp but it requires a dedicated 20 amp power circuit. That's not standard in any home I've ever seen, so if you go the ATI route, plan on h... | |
| Suggestions on a home theater processor? they are a small company...they know what they need to do and they are probably frustrated themselves at not being able to get the product out. If it does ship, we all have to wait to see if they really have a good/solid product. If it ships as de... | |
| Suggestions on a home theater processor? Queefee....While this might not be the official plan, I guess it could work out the way you describe. I know that Outlaw has been offering (questionably) low prices on their 990 and then on the Onkyo/Integra stuff while we wait for their 997, howe... | |
| Suggestions on a home theater processor? they are both phantomware items to hold the market....the companies that know what they need to offer to stay competitive (i.e. stay in business), but they apparently don't have the staff/money or engineering to deliver. I wonder if the Las Vegas ... | |
| Suggestions on a home theater processor? The Rotel doesn't have Audyssey (or Trinov) processing....and Audyssey really makes a big difference in rooms that don't have perfect acoustics (which is almost all of our video rooms). All of the other processors that we've been recommending do..... | |
| Suggestions on a home theater processor? they are both vaporware at this point....both missing their announce dates by months. The Outlaw has built in Trinnov processing which is quite different than Audyssey...so it's of interest with a price of around $1400. The Emotiva unit has no spe... | |
| Suggestions on a Blu-ray DVD player? All of the bluray players play bluray videos outstandingly. The difference is when you play a non bluray disk. Consider, however, that you can do video conversion in the bluray player, the processor, or the TV. You don't have to do the conversion ... | |
| Suggestions on a home theater processor? Hmmm....I forgot about the UMC-1. I've been waiting for the Outlaw 997 because I admit, I am tantalized by Trinov sound processing capabilities. Now you have me thinking. I already own an Audyssey MultiEQ Pro unit ($2500) and I need a more current... | |
| Suggestions on a home theater processor? For a home theater, you should really consider the Onkyo/Integra processors which are excellent home theater units....or wait for the outlaw 997 (like many of us are doing). The advantage of the Onkyo/Integra units is that they have built in Audys... | |
| Suggestions on a Blu-ray DVD player? you may not like this answer, but most all of the current bluray players outputing on HDMI 1.3 will give you the same home theater experience. No need to spend over $100 on the player FOR HOME THEATER. | |
| BK or Marantz Multi Ch ?? I was assuming marantz monoblocks....not sure about any of the other marantz's but the monoblocks are great amps. | |
| BK or Marantz Multi Ch ?? The two are so close that you won't go wrong with either. Both are generally refered to as "warm" SS amps. The Marantz would give you slightly more headroom if you play loud...or if you are going to use one channel to drive a sub. | |
| Subwoofer Suggestion a used james emb-1000 would do wonders for your system. |
