| Different sound between two channels Hmmm...so much for being something simple. Since the problem moves from one speaker to the other when you switch the cables, I seriously doubt it is the speakers. Unfortunately, it sounds like the problem is something internal to the electronics a... | |
| Different sound between two channels Mitchb, are your speaker cables the same length for both channels? | |

| The strangest looking gear you've ever seen?? Hey Doug, that's easy!!! It's because bad soundwaves can't see very well. The dimly burning bulbs only allow the good soundwaves to find their way out of the equipment. The bad soundwaves will eventually accumulate, so you have to remember to empt... | |
| Room treatment advice Hi Tom...You aren't kidding, that IS a difficult room. IF I understand your description correctly, it is almost an "infinite baffle" situation with reflective areas scattered around. I'm no expert, but I'll give it a shot.You mentioned that mids a... | |
| bright up "warm sound" speakers My suspicion is that Sdcampbell and Jdombrow have got it right. Muddy midbass and highs lacking detail sounds to me like the description of a room that is less than optimally arranged. Before spending alot of time, effort and money on equipment/ca... | |
| Cross over frequency ??? Yes, use the processor to cross the monitors (high pass), then use the crossover on the subs (low pass). The gap between will simply be 'lost' as a tiny amount of heat in the circuitry. Anyway, as usual, Sean has given the best and easiest-to-unde... | |
| Which One Do I Have To Have? I've got the Monster 5100 power center in my HT. All I can tell you is that, for me, it improved picture quality tremendously. I was quite surprised at the improvement. I expected some, but nowhere near as much as I got. It didn't seem to help the... | |
| Rate these on order of importance: While I understand and respect the opinions listed above, I tend to disagree...slightly. I would rank these 4,5,1,2,3. The room is hugely important, but can't be most important. The reason for this is that a great room can't make up for a lousy so... | |
| How to keep my stack of Adcoms cool... Throw water on them, that should do it...permanently. Just kidding, the set-up was too perfect and I could't resist. | |
| Cable Connection Question Need Help/Suggestions You can do that with no problems as long as the binding posts will allow you to get a good, tight connection. You may want to experiment with the connection order for the different sets of cables. By that I mean there may be a difference in sound ... | |
| Pioneer 47Ai / Audio Refinement Pre2 DSP help Jfacker is right. You could have gotten away with the Pre 5 and saved yourself some $$$ over the Pre 2 if you are using the analog outs from the Pioneer. The Pre 5 is a great ever-so-slightly warmer than neutral pre with no processors and no video... | |
| I am confused about 15A and 20A current. Midfi,Don't return anything just yet. Maybe I'm off base here, but it sounds to me like you are tripping the breaker with inrush current. When you first power on that amp, all the caps inside must charge and do so very quickly. This can cause a pe... | |
| Deepest Bass in the Known Universe... Kthomas...You just need the right size bass trap. I built mine to enclose the entire solar system. It only took one weekend and I got all the parts at Home Depot (grin). |
