| 1080p an issue for now? We probably won't see 1080P TV broadcasts for a long time but you can see 1080P HD-dvd and Blueray.From what I understand 1080P looks better if you sit close to a big screen but from a distance the benefits of 1080P over 720P are not huge.I have a... | |

| Thiels or Von Schweikerts I have to clarify that the 3 systems I heard using Thiels that I really enjoyed were all using Krell KAV series amps and there HT pre-pros. I did hear a set-up recently using Thiel 1.6 and a Krell integrated that sounded really good in a friends h... | |
| Thiels or Von Schweikerts I loved the sound of Thiels too until I got them home. Once I sold them I was even happier. I have owned Von Schweikert VR4 gen II for about 4 to 5 years now and love them.The Thiels were the most finicky speakers I have ever owned and it took me ... | |
| Anyone try and compare the Halcro SSP 100 or 80? Pramod1969, thank you very much for the detailed analysis. I heard the same comments from my dealer in respects to music and movies. I may have to take him up on the home trial just to satisfy my curiosity.D_edwards,I am definately going to take y... | |
| California Audio Lab -are they out of business? The website for CAL repairs is below:http://www.approvedaudioservice.com/I have never dealt with them but as far as I know they are the only ones who do repairs and have the parts.Good luck.Mike | |
| Lexicon vs Meridian Forget the Meridian 565 as it is a real hastle to set-up and use. The 561 is a much better choice and actually outperforms the Lexicon for movies which is not easy. The Proceed is an excellent processor but if you are only going to use this system... | |
| Dual or single subwoofers? I am definately in favor of using 2 subs but what might be a better solution for you would be to keep your Rel and add a Velodyne SMS-1 EQ. Now that I think of it though most Rel's have a different connection configuration so I am not sure if it w... | |
| Integrated amps with HT pass-thru? I know the Classe CAP-151 has a HT pass through and normally sells for $1,200 used.It is a very good sounding integrated and with 150 watts on tap has more than enough power for movies.I believe the Krell integrated's have HT pass through but I do... | |
| EAD Ovation 8 & Citation 7.1 Amps UPGRADE Help The amp upgrade to a EAD PM 1000 is definately a good idea and the PM 2000 an even better idea. I have had both and there the best amps I have ever owned. I wound up selling the PM 2000 because the weight and size would not work in my new home but... | |
| Speaker Cables for Thiel 2.4 Every system is different but when I owned Thiel CS 2.3's the best speaker cable that worked for me was the Cardas Cross. I had great luck using Harmonic Tech Truthlinks IC's as well. I went through a variety of amps like Plinius, Krell, Parasound... | |
| HDTV Over The Air? Tuner's make a big difference in pulling in the signal as well. I have one of the older rca DTC-100 tuners that sucks and a newer Zenith HD-SAT520 that pulls in the stations great. These are both for use with DirecTv as well but I did install an a... | |
| movie system Dwhitt,It is New Years Day, most of us are just getting over our hangovers. Krelldogg is right, a budget would be best to know in advance. For movies I think the older Krell like the Fortes are great for movies and can be had for $350 to $450 a pa... | |
| Pair of Def Tech Supercubes or Velodyne DD-12? Whenever given the option it is always best to go with multiple subs. I would opt for the pair of supercube's I if it would cost the same as the Velo DD-12. If your lucky you can get great bass from a single sub but it is all dependent on the room... | |
| Which Power Amplifier to buy: Sunfire or Parasound If you choice is between the Sunfire Sig. and Parasound 2205 I would definately go with the Parasound. Not only will you save $600 to $800 but it will more than likely sound better. The Sunfire Sig. is a good amp but it never distinguished itself ... |
