| Anyone Else Using an Audio Kinesis Swarm or Debra Distributed Bass Array System? Hello amg56, Welcome to the party. The reason I, and I think the other users of 4 sub distributed bass array systems on this thread, have not mentioned or discussed their main speakers and amps is because we understand it's irrelevant; t... | |

| Anyone Else Using an Audio Kinesis Swarm or Debra Distributed Bass Array System? Hello jrp1, Yes, I'm very glad I took a chance and went with this setup as opposed to my initial intention of 2 very good traditional amplified subs. The Debra system is about the same price but I honestly cannot think of how the bass perform... | |

| Best speaker/system piano concerts "Large Magneplanar speakers and a Pass X350.8 should give you the power and scale you seek." Plus one for dweller's recommendation. You may want to audition with and without a good tube preamp to best tailor the sound to your speciific tast... | |
| Why is Oppo stopping products. Ozzy, You summed up my thoughts on Oppo perfectly: "Great products and great customer support, what more could we ask for?" I would just add "all at an affordable price".RIP Oppo, you will be missed. Tim | |
| Why is Oppo stopping products. Hi ozzy, I agree that the niche market Oppo sells to would still buy the 205 if they raised the price by $500, I know I would. But I don't think $500 more profit per unit would have any affect on their decision.to cease production. I s... | |
| Vandersteen Sub woofers v Rythmik Subs Hello gdnrbob, Yes,I generally agree that everyone is entitled to their opinions; I just prefer a bit of supporting evidence to indicate whether I should value them. My issue with ctsooner is that he seems to have a higher regard for his... | |
