| Help ... Totally stuck (subwoofer topic) Does the new sub have an adjustable crossover level feature? If so, you should set the level of the crossover fairly low (25Hz), which would then (I think) use the sub's crossover to send only signals >25 Hz to the main speakers. There are mor... | |

| No love for Verity? I've not heard any Verity speakers, but I have not heard a speaker with a plastic cone midrange that I would actually buy (preferring paper cones or fabric domes). Except for *possibly* the Rockports, (or are Magicos in that group?) - but I am no... | |

You don’t say what your speakers are, whether you are happy with them, or what type of sound you’re looking for. Low power SET + hi efficiency speakers i... | |
| Acrolink Cables, anyone heard them? @stereo5 - I've built a couple of power cords (using both the 7N P2030 and the 7N P2040III -with Oyaide connectors - and enjoy both. To make sure you are getting them from Japan (vs. Chinese copy), you can go to the www.fromjapan.com.jp and do a... | |

| Annoying sounds from cars at stop light It makes me sad to see all of those young people suffering so much.. I think the loud bass thumping has driven them so insane that many have had to resort to piercings, skin stabbing tattoos, and even their hair has turned colors. So so sad.. ;-( | |

| Rockport Atria or Avior in Houston to listen to ? I think Ryan Coleman here in Houston went from Wilson’s to Rockport. He goes by the screen name ryno either on this site or the other site(s). Another person that had Rockports was David Ellington, regional sales manager for Audioquest. I think ... | |
