| Cause of Muddled Middle? Yeah, the room is a good place to start. Mattress foam from Walmart. Experiment behind, between or on the side walls from your speakers. I just put it on the back walls of the built-in bookshelves next to my speakers. It made a huge difference. Be... | |
| High quality subwoofer - which one? Hi Marty. You're likely correct, but I use my AOS (Art of Sound) sub with the speakon connected to the center channel taps to make it a large speaker in my HT setup. You'd be amazed at how much LF info is in the center channel in action movies. Ma... | |
| High quality subwoofer - which one? I' m also looking for sub to integrate with my C&C Abbys. But I'm looking for one with a speakon connection to the speaker taps. REL and AOS are the only ones I knw of. So far a REL 201 is my first choice. | |
| what is an ideal tube amp I power Cain & Cain Abbys (95db) to fairly loud (not concert) volumes in my medium (17 x 35 w/vaulted ceilings) room with an upgraded Sophia Electric Baby amp (10w). | |
| Ortofon Cadenza Red vs ZYX R100 I've no experience with ortofon but owned the r100. You're going to have some groove noise as the stylus digs deep. Although I've moved on to a MM, I have nothing but good things to say about ZYX carts. | |
| Ground Cheater plug or.... OMG Dopogue, I almost fell out of the chair laughing. They'll be shipping by next week and carried by Music Direct. | |
| Dedicated Line for my home theatre newbie I have two dedicated outlets for my 2 channel rig. I'm not sure about the cost/value for HT. in my HT, I did upgrade the cheap outlets to the best P & S I could buy locally. My HT goes through an APC H15 which also regulates the voltage. Have ... | |
| Does the Quality of the USB cable matter? I actually use DHLabs HDMI cables in my HT. I like them. | |
| Does the Quality of the USB cable matter? I do believe in cable differences to a point. However, I find value more in analog or speaker cable quality. Digital cables, not so much. Really, quality metal and connectors and decent construction will do the job. I hear everyone, but we convinc... | |
| Does the Quality of the USB cable matter? I answered something similar to Nonoise & Nicks over on Cable Asylum and got threatened with a ban from the moderator. I always believe in the quality of the metal( including connectors), but aren't asked to do much. It's 0s and 1s. | |
| NORDOST HEIMDALL VS A ZEN SILVER MK II I've read a few times that AZ uses cable from Neotech. I swapped out my Heimdall & BH for all DIY Neotech I/Cs. I've written before that Nordost does something to the sound. At first, I liked what it did (more detail, etc). Ultimately, it didn... | |
| Longest Advisable Speaker Cable Runs? I run 20ft cables from my 10watt Sophia Baby. Mine are simple Vampire wire 12ga continuous cast copper hook-up wire. | |
| Sometimes Less is More? Agree Mapman, but on a slightly different level. I have a fairly large room 17 deep X 35 wide. I had towers which went well down into the high 20's. Sounded good. But now I have Cain & Cain Abby's. Sound great. | |
| Is good customer service about dead? Great Al. Your link had almost everyone mentioned ONE business (except Merlin, mentioned a couple of times) with good customer service. Not good enough. Generally speaking, customer service everywhere is DEAD. I only shop based on customer service... | |
| Is good customer service about dead? Yep, in every aspect and almost all retail. |
