| Power Amp-Cross Over-Subwoofer Thanks Tuong,I ended up getting a Beringer x-over for $85 plus the cost of RCA-XLR adaptors:) | |
| Volume Control-Power Amp-Subwoofer Thanks Jab that does help. Now I will research crossovers. I have two mono blocks that I want to bridge and use for power if I can. From what I understand, I have to make sure the subs impedance isn't too low for the bridged amps. | |
| Personal amp evolution Pioneer SA8100 integrated which I then used the preamp of to drive an used Marantz 1040 power amp. Now have Marantza MA500 power amps. Have also had Pioneer and Technics receivers at various times in the past.h | |
| Onkyo VS Onkyo Integra Thanks for the additional responses. It sounds like the Integra series probably is worth the extra bucks although from what I have read, most people like the regular Onkyo series anyway. Guess I will base my decision on how soon I think I will hav... | |
| Onkyo VS Onkyo Integra Thanks for the responses. Although there is a separate Integra company, Onkyo still supplies the local audio/video store with something described as Onkyo/Integra. They are about $100 more list than the comparable Onkyo. I don't know about the reg... | |

| Snell C/V Speaker Question Oops, they are Snell CIV not C/V. | |
| Snell C/V Speaker Question The room is 22 x 12 with plaster walls and 8 feet ceilings.I have the Marantz mono blocks MA500 at 125 watts per channel. My other offer is a pair of Vandensteen 3's. They would probably be the safest choice as I own Dahlquist DQ10's and like them... | |
| Love My Maggies But..... Thanks for the responses. I will certainly keep an eye (ear?) out for the speakers mentioned!I have to admit, I put in the resistors that came with the Maggies to tame the brightness on Pop and Rock and that did help a lot. But the search for perf... | |
| How did U get into this expensive hobby? I had a friend at work who had bought Vandersteins speakers and had the Dahlquist DQ10's in a closet. He was too shy to sell them and wanted to throw them away but they were too big! I kept offering to pay him be he would only take a weight bench ... |
