| Is $18,000 enough for a high end HT? I hate when people throw around "this isn't high-end" and phrases like that.High-end is what you make it. If it looks and sounds good to you then it's high-end. You could spend $18k on a pair of stereo speakers ferchrissakes.What kind of system do... | |
| Hi-Fi wanna-be needing advice on an Amp purchase Gotta recommend the Odyssey Stratos. I have the 60v2s as well and I have the Stratos amp and it was a truly amazing difference over my 5 channel amp. | |
| Home Theater Speaker Advice Why exactly do you think that many manufacturers "HT packages" are typically 2 floorstanders (from their music lineup), a center channel, a subwoofer and 2 rear speakers (usually bookshelf speakers also from their music lineup...but many go with d... | |
| B&W 7NT vs. Paradigm reference 80 for plinius mkII He actually said that he couldn't hear the 6k difference.I would also vote for the Paradigms. I personally think they sound much better than the B&W's. I also think that the reason all your "audiophile" reviewers and retailers friends don't ow... | |
| Great Rock & Roll speakers? Anyone have any experience with the new Q series Kefs? Those look really nice but I haven't heard them. | |
| Home Theater Speaker Advice The reason is this: Most people end up playing music in their HT rooms. If they have a seperate music room then oftentimes they like to be able to listen to quality music in the HT room as well. A dedicated HT speaker just doesn't sound very good ... | |
| Odyssey speakers? Not REALLY looking but I was curious if anyone had heard any of them. You never know when you might get the urge to sell your current speakers and possibly upgrade ;) | |
| Review: Paradigm Studio 60 Speaker Totally agree. My 60v2's are excellent speakers. Extremely detailed and transprent. They just let the music flow. The soundstage is huge and I often find myself turning around looking for that extra sound in the background. | |
| Review: Paradigm PW-2200 Subwoofer Totally agree. I have had mine for 2 years and I keep discovering how glad I am that I bought it. Very fast response and as thunderous as you can handle! | |
| Great Rock & Roll speakers? I actually found my Paradigms slightly bright (what a shocker) until I got the Odyssey Amp. Now they are nice 'n smooth. That amp made a HUGE difference over the NAD 5 channel I was using before. | |
| Great Rock & Roll speakers? In your opinion of course.No offense taken. Speakers are probably the most subjective peice of equipment out there. So, while you may think the Paradigms suck, I actually found them better than most I heard at twice the price. Once they broke in t... | |
| Great Rock & Roll speakers? Glad I didn't listen to Scottht before I went out and got the best sounding speakers for the money in the Paradigms. Sheesh. Next time don't sugar coat it and tell us what you really think. | |
| How much power do you need for realistic HT? I think that the 100-120 would be fine for a theater with smallish speakers. Any decent theater uses a powered subwoofer which handles all the serious power sapping explosions. The center (usually small sized) primarily handles dialogue and the re... | |
| Home Theater Speaker Advice Get the Studio 60's, Studio CC, Studio 20's and a PW2200 Sub in the Paradigm. Should come out about the same price and offer a MUCH better theater experience. Trust me ;) | |
| Slight hiss when amp on and system off. Thanks a bunch. I emailed Odyssey support but got no reply. The 'Gon is a great place for tech support ;) |
