| Chang lightspeed VS ESP powerdistributor I agree with the last two posts. I live in a condo and run my HT through a CLS 9900 amp and a CLS 9600 ISO and find the difference significant. The background is quieter, and the bass tighter. I've also found the sound better when running my amps ... | |
| Extension Cord There are good quality, hopital grade (all Hubble outlets) extension cords and power strips, made for hospital use.The ones I've seen are made by Wiremold (sorry, no website) | |
| Linn speakers in the 1000- 2000 range. Why not go for a used pair of AV 5140's?? They seem to go for ~$1500 in good shape. | |
| Silver or copper cables? Stevemj, get a clue,There is scientific data as to why different cables can sound significantly different, the skin effect for one is a well documented issue in electrical engineering.If you're happy using rip cord, so be it, one day perhaps you'l... | |
| Best subwoofer for Linn AV system Hey Curt, I've considered an HGS 15, or possibly an 18, just how loud do you play your system?? Do you think the HGS 18 is needed, or is the 15 enough??What kind of difficulty did you have integrating it into your system? | |
| Absolute Best DVD Player? Wait for a couple of months for Pioneer Elites DVS10A to come to this country. It's available in Japan and getting rave reviews. I'ts the progressive version of the DV-09. You won't be dissapointed, or wait for the MSB progressive upgrade for the ... | |
| Which AV receiver to buy?? What about the Pioneer Elite A/V processors, excellent features, solid MOSFET amps and great, programable remotes?I'n sure many will attack me, but many shops I know don't sell Denon anymore because they seemed to break alot, I'm not sure if they'... | |
| pick a DVD player for my HT I think the Pioneer Elite DV-09 has been missed, yes, it doesn't play progressive format, but has great 480i! It also has exceptional DAC's, and can be had used for $800.By the way MSB is working out a progressive upgrade for this player, given it... | |
| Which is better: separates or receiver? Tmartin's post is valid, but given that few components have component video switching, especially in a budget market, and the number of outboard video switchers (extron comes to mind) the video issue is an easy upgrade later, especially if you use... | |
| How do you ship heavy oversized speakers I agree with perfectimage, if you can send these for only $200 each, consider yourself lucky. If you take them to Mailboxes etc, they'll need to be crated, that alone will cost you $200+, then they also charge an increased shipping fee...... I had... | |
| Linn av5140 feedback? I love my AV 5140's!!!! I've also got the AV 5120 as my center, a perfect match! I've used these speakers with Aragon and Acurus amps, but now I've got them running on Linn AV 5105's and it's much smoother, especially the highs and vocals. I had a... | |
| Salamander Synergy Rack Experiences? Quadraspire makes similar, I feel slightly better looking racks than the Salamander, I don't have them yet though... | |
| Stainless Steel audio racks? The coolest steel racks I've ever seen are by Scroer & Schroer www.shroer.de/. They do distribute to the US, they are somewhat limited in the number of components they handle, but you'll find none better looking! | |
| Cable TV / Subwoofer HUMMMMMMM Something all of you may have missed, and an easier fix than any listed. The exact same thing happened to me in my HT when I added seperate power amps to a receiver, what the problem was was having a dimmer swich on a lamp (or wall) in the same li... | |
| Best HT speaker system All those are nice, but if you want great dynamics and incredible smoothness, go with the Linn AV system, it's amazing. If you've got more money than you know what to do with, the Revel Ultima series if impossible to beat, but the #38,000 price ki... |
