| where do you cross over your ht setup I use two REL Strata III and Sonus Faber EAII, believe me, the speakers sound much sharper around 80hz then the subwoofers, thats why I xover at 60hz...This is not a "cientific" statement, just what I hear... | |
| where do you cross over your ht setup I agree with the advantages of running, even "full-range" speakers, as small, easier placement, better dynamics, better bass, etc...But I find 80hz too high, there is too much info around 80hz that even good subwoofers cant play as well as speaker... | |
| Cary Cinema 8 vs. Krell Showcase vs. TagMclaren AV Dont know the Cary, had a TAG for a couple of years, it is good, but after upgrading to the new TAG Dual Processor, couldnt live with it anymore...Now have a Showcase, comparing with TAG DP, it is better with anything other than classic music, whe... | |
| Center speaker placement I had mine over the TV and it sounded like it was way up, then I placed it under the TV, and now the sound cames from the TV, much better... | |

| Which Pre/Pro regardless of $$$ I had just sold my TAG AV32R and got the new Dual Processor, very good, but as they are going down, returned it and got a Krell Showcase instead, because it also has digital parametric equalization, a must for any room that is not fully treated ac... | |
| Krell Showcase Processor I connect my video sources direct and don´t use the pass thru, also prefer lively dynamic sound...By the way, after 4 days burn-in there are no hints of grain or harshness, and timbre is very natural, better than the warmth of the TAG...In the end... | |
| Krell Showcase Processor I have my Showcase now, the increase in dynamics over the TAG is awsome, but timbre and detail are a bit worst, although improving with run-in...DPLII works fine, even has an extra mode, DPLII Matrix, that works very well with TV input, and I love... | |
| Bryston owners: What speakers are you using? Plus Signum Surround, Proac CC2 and 2 REL Strata III | |
