| high pass filter Yes, line level would be easier and there are off-the-shelf solutions, as Nmusicman has suggested.BTW, what I meant to say in my earlier post was:Impedance varies greatly near resonance and is affected by enclosure loading. The rated 'nominal' imp... | |
| Anthem D1, Marantz Av7005 or McIntosh MX135 ??? Don't you need amps for the other two, as well?The Marantz is the only one of these three with all the mod-cons: HDMI, Audyssey, HD codecs, etc.Kal | |
| high pass filter I really wonder if those numbers will be sufficient. Impedance varies greatly near resonance and is affected by enclosure loading. The rated 'nominal' impedance is estimated at 1Kohms but, in the bass, the difference can be huge.You can measure it... | |
| high pass filter 1. You need to know the impedance, not the DC resistance, and you need to know it across the relevant range from about 200Hz down.2. For 6dB rolloff, only a cap is needed. For 12dB, you will need a cap and a coil.Kal | |

| Most effective Room Treatment for slap echo, etc I believe that the foam used by Auralex is less effective than fiberglas-based panels. Take a look at:www.gikacoustics.comwww.realtraps.comhttp://www.atsacoustics.com/www.sensiblesoundsolutions.comKal | |
| 2ch amp and HT receiver connected to same speakers DON'T DO IT!!!!!!!The amps will shunt each other and possibly damage each other. Either get a good switch or figure out a cure to the ground loop.Kal | |
| how do you trear rooms to bring up the null points Well, there are alternatives: 1)Learn to use measurement and analysis tools.2)Hire someone who can do it for you.Kal | |
| how do you trear rooms to bring up the null points Any treatments applied near boundaries to reduce peaks due to room modes will also raise nulls because they are both fed from the same energy source. There are tuned absorbers which you can read about at www.realtraps.com http://www.quietconcepts.... | |
| Bitstream of PCM on my DVD player PCM. I do not thing the PS DACs can handle bitstream.Kal | |
| Looking for a pre/processor Tough. The Marantz AV7005 (and supposedly the AV8003) might do. Do you have any need for analog inputs in the pre? If you do, the stakes really go up and I would be hard-pressed to recommend much in that price range that also had HDMI in/outs. Kal | |
| What does audisey adjust Audyssey MultEQ XT equalizes all the speakers including LFE in the sub. Also, the LFE "crossover" is entirely independent of the bass management that reroutes main channel bass to the sub. | |
| Looking for a pre/processor On paper, there are many choices. What's your budget?Kal | |
