| Recommend speakers for a restaurant sound system Jkeniley, we voiced our opinions and we are all curious. Let us hear from you again!! | |
| Recommend speakers for a restaurant sound system Slightly confused. Is the music for you when the restaurant is empty or the customers? If I am in a restaurant with people and all kind of activities, I don't think I will be listening critically for any music (unless they are too loud). So it see... | |
| Cost Efficiency of 7.1 analog My thoughts exactly!! Since I have an outboard video scaler, I don't need my pre/pro to do any switching or scaling. No chasing after the latest HDMI formats. I rather spend my money on a decent yesterday (yesterday year even) pre/pro with excelle... | |
| Krell Showcase Software Version Thanks for your response. The funny thing is since my initial post, I jumped on a great deal for the HTS7.1 instead. I am still curious but not for a practical reason anymore. I agree with you though that for the price the Showcase is going for he... | |
| Pre-pro Advice for B&W 802d HT System Have you considered getting a separate video processor like the DVDO EDGE for your video upconversion and a "music-first" processor for music/movie? I am slightly suspicious of the new generation AV pre/pro that claims to do everything. | |
| Sub connection Houstonreef, my understanding is that you are correct. Most would prefer to set up the sub in the way you described (essentially bi-wiring the sub and speakers from the integrated amp speaker outputs). You will probably need to adjust the highpass... | |
| B&W Matrix tweeter repair No, Yfei, the metal screen refers to the grill cover for the tweeter. I think you can still buy a brand new Matrix 805 tweeter from B&W (at least when I spoke to B&W in June 2008) but it will cost a few hundreds dollars (~$250.00). Alterna... | |
| Speaker Purchase You might want to consider the Magnepan/Mcintosh combo showing in Lyric HiFi on the Upper East Side. I am helping a friend putting together a similarly priced system recently (also in NYC). After several trips to high end stereo places and having ... | |
| B&W Matrix tweeter repair Just a FYI, the person there takes her time in returning call. So be patient and try leaving several messages. Eventually she will get back to you. Good luck. | |
| B&W Matrix tweeter repair Plastic housing and various parts for the Matrix series tweeter can be had for $15-20.00 directly from B&W. I just got mine last week. Cheers. | |
| Does anyone out there NOT hear a difference in CD Interesting discussion. I can only offer my own experience. I love music but I also love playing with audio equipment. For the latter reason, I have swapped a few CD player or Transport/Dac combo in the past. Every piece of my system costs between... | |
| Need help with picking a system: Cary, Wadia, B&W Thanks for all the responses so far. I guess I can always play without a preamp first and add one later. So...if B&W is not a good match, anything else I should put on my list? BTW, is B&W overrated due to good marketing (perhaps other tha... |
