Have you heard of EMOTIVA? I had their LMC-1/LPA-1 combo and then the DMC-1/MPS-1 combo. Good components for the price but don't expect miracles. I have since moved on from these products but friends and family members still have their LMC-1/LPA-1 combo.Kenobi | |

Review: Usher Be-718 Monitor Tzh21yWhat 100 watt solid state amp are you referring to above? You can't judge the speakers' performance if mismatched or underpowered. Kenobi | |
Help with sub upgrade Mark Seaton's Submersive is something I am looking into. Kenobi | |
What about Emotiva? I thought about the Emotiva but ended with Onkyo PR SC886 (Integra 9.9 equivalent) and not looked back. Superb sounding and also a does a great job with video upconversion to 1080P. Check it out!Kenobi | |
Speaker cables from Asia I would recommend Valab's offerings if you ask me. Best pricing I've seen for anything comparable here at at fraction of the cost. | |
