Looking For High Quality Equipment Rack
I have two sistrum racks six shelves each. I love them. The resonance handling properties is real and works. Great soundstage from my equipment using these. The cosmetics are unique and innovative. I could frankly go on and on, but there have been... 
Mono block suggestions
Contact audiopoints.com and check out the Harmonic Precision 110 HP amps. They may be able to give you a deal on these. I have them driving Revel studios and the result are dynamic transparant sound with tube like qualities. I was really surprised... 
Bi-wiring...tell me more
I biwired my my new system and the sound stage was clearly better. I think a lot depends on the manufacturer. If Dynaudio doesn't believe its design will benefit from biwiring then they know more about their speakers than anyone else and its a rea... 
Looking for recommendations to use Rives Audio ...
I haven't them but have had numerous discussions with them about acoustical issues and have found them extremely knowlegdeable. Their website is quite good and their modeling tools are really to notch. I did the acoustics on my media room myself b... 
Resonant modes and taming the room
I am not quite as surprised by the results although in the perfect model doubling the measurement on the rectangle would cause problems. However what we don't know is the materials in the room,whether your measuring a blank room, ect. The one ques... 
Can anyone tell me about the Proceed PAV good /bad
The PAV/PSDS is a very good audio video combo. It is no longer supported by Proceed. If you are going in that direction I would reccomend the AVP which is still getting software upgrades. If you are looking at two channel as much as I loved the PA... 
Thiel Powerplane and Powerpoint Speakers
Thanks to all. Unsound I really understand where your going on the thiel rotel match as others have pointed out lean amps with thiels are not a good match. I personally would match CJ amps with Thiels if that were a logical choice. I have a CJ amp... 
Thiel Powerplane and Powerpoint Speakers
Hi unsound. Appreciate your comments. Unfortunately in this kind of screwy setup optimal sound isn't going to be acheived. I have so much working against me. First the wife factor for a bedroom system is overpowering. If anything can be seen at al... 
Is 7.1 a reality?
Unsound makes a good point as far as buying amps. I wouldn't run out and buy full 7.1 if budget is in mind. I am using Proceed HPAs to run surrounds which have quick and good resale and I bought them here for a good price. On the other hand new av... 
Rotel RSX 1065 vs. Denon AVR 5803
Truaudiophile thank you for the truly helpful analysis. This exactly the input I was looking for. The Denon piece seems as good as you say but in my application music is probably going to be more important even though TV is more used. The power an... 
Seeking Great Cool Runnin' SS Amp...
Without a doubt the coolest running amp at close with fantastic tube like qualities is the Harmonic Precision 110. I have them and the lack of heat is phenominal. They are more than 97% efficient. Despite the power rating I am running Revel Studio... 
Is 7.1 a reality?
Despite Thsalmon's tongue piercing cheek observation, if you are going to purchase the best quality av receiver for your budget get 7.1. I have 7.1 or 2 actually and it sounds great. I realize the 7.1 info is not a present reality but it will be a... 
This Sistrum stuff works
Guys some times these threads sound like the crossfire spoof on SNL where the guy's response is "Jane you ignorant slut". Frankly I looked at the Grand Prix Audio site and there stuff looks cool and they do have some tech support for their stuff, ... 
Speakers that sound like Thiels on steroids.
Drubin's list is pretty good. However, if you are a Thiel person and the Revels weren't the difference you were looking for I would really go to a thiel dealer and listen to the thiel sub with your or similar thiel speakers and see if that hits th... 
Speakers that sound like Thiels on steroids.
The SW1 has been on the streets for at least a year. I have heard it and it is great. Obviously it would match other thiel speakers perfectly. It has a crossover control unit which is separate purchase. Check out the specs. at their web site to de...
