One vote for Oct. 31st.Thanks Albert. 
Re-wired to 30 amps?
15 amp would be typical. I am pretty sure 14 ga wire can handle 15 amps, 12 gauge wire can handle 20 amps and 10 gauge wire can handle 30 amps.Most of the upgrades you have seen would have been people installing dedicated lines, with new wire. It ... 
Full range rear speakers
Makes sense Mike, thanks for the input. In this case I would be considering "musical" small or large speaker. Off the top of my head I can't think of any speakers designed purely for HT(and don't want to know:)) Ya know, good stuff all around.Marty 
Full range rear speakers
"faster transients, dynamics, and transparency" I guess the question is this wasted in the HT application?ThanksMarty 
Full range rear speakers
In multi-poop don't the rears basically do the same thing? Recreate the ambiance of the venue? I have not gotten into mulitchannel music, which might cause me to be biased.Why do people say that multichannel music line? To me a speaker should repr... 
Full range rear speakers
So in the end what would sound better? "Fuller" range Ospreys, or the Swallows with a sub? I have an unused sub, HSU VFT-2, just sitting around. I have always thought running the speaker high level lines into the sub and using its crossover, or lo... 
Full range rear speakers
Mike,A dealer saying something would be an overkill, this must be a first. But then again, I would say most of us have warped perception of what an over kill is. At least I do.The one thing I do not like about the Swifts is the tweeter height. The... 
Full range rear speakers
Thanks for the input. I guess it's like insurance, you don't often need it, but when you do it's great.Sean, yea our "full range" idea is different. My is basically to about 45hz which seems to be the basic industry slandered. I would guess, guess...

CD out: Digital or Analog?
For me, the type of gear I have owned, analog has always been a noticable improvement. Which really stinks because with a dvd/cd combo things would be cheaper if I only had to buy the digital verses digital and analog cables.As always, just try.Marty 
Subwoofer slam vs boom
I think the room I am working in is screwing things up, alot. Next I guess I will rotate the whole mess 90 degress. See what happens.Wrong state of mind, given. I do not use subs for music either, just with HT I want a system to grab me by the bal... 
Subwoofer slam vs boom
... I thought I would get kicked out of here for saying the C word(Vega's). Those were my first speakers years ago, sounds funny saying that I am 26. I still have them, the DX-9's. I tried to use these as passive subs, disconnecting the tweeters a... 
Subwoofer slam vs boom
opps, the subs are both in the same phase, different phases kills the bass
