| BEST SPEAKER FOR BRYSTON 7B ST,,, I have almost the opposite consideration on my hands. I bought the N802's and really love them. I am now searching for the right amp for the speakers and have the 7Bst's on my short list. I also considered the ProAc's but they didn't quite have th... | |
| Speaker Cable Lengths - W/ Monos I think you should have the 5 way binding posts of your amps permanently welded directly to the binding posts on your speakers. Advantages: Shortest length of wire - 0, and the old saying "The best wire is no wire", also you can sell your speaker ... | |
| Building a new listening room. Help ? As Abstract7 mentioned, the Master Handbook of Acoustics is a good reference about room acoustics, sound proofing and sound absorbing materials. Another good book, Sound Studio Construction on a Budget deals more specifically with building and set... | |
| What to do with your tax return? I was not so fortunate this year. I think I might have to sell my left B&W Nautalis 802 to pay my taxes, then maybe try to find some good mono recordings. | |
| Listening Room Upgrade Various carpet types have different absorption coefficients throughout the frequency range. A thick pile carpet will absorb more sound than a thin one. What makes even more difference though is the type of padding you use. For best acoustic proper... | |
| Biamp w/2 Bryston4BST s or 1 14BSTw/B W? I have been considering the same thing. I recently purchased the N802s and have a 250W amp which drives them pretty well, but after some discussions with my dealer I think it would be better to go with the 500W power rather than biamping dual 250W... | |
| Home theatre and Musical Experience I had the same feelings for many years with my home theater system. I had a Sony ES Processor for home theater which was fine for movies and even DVD and Laserdisc concerts, but when playing CD's it was muddy and lifeless. I always prefered listen... | |
| Vote for the best center speaker here I'll cast my vote for the B&W HTM1. Its large and has enough low end to cover low male voices and make them sound natural. I've found that many center speakers are too small and really cut off the low end which can be disturbing with low voice... | |
| One Channel Lower Output With XLR Cables Switch the right and left cables and see if the problem is in the opposite channel. You can narrow down the problem by taking the cable that seems to be higher volume and using that to connect just the left channel or just the right channel to fig... | |

| Good 5.1 surround music CD s? I enjoy the DTS audio CD Herb Alpert: Pasion Dance. I think that one is really well done. I am also a Sting fan, so I have Brand New Day, Ten Summoner's Tales and the Police: Every Breath You Take in DTS. I like them as a different take on the ori... | |
| Dealer Price "Wiggle" Room I have found quite a few stores that don't want to offer any discount on individual pieces, even if they are large ticket items, they stick to the list prices. Their exceptions are if you are buying a system or many pieces then they may offer a di... | |
| What length digital cable? I read some similar manufacturer propaganda to what doug mentioned, but I thought that the minimum length they recommended was 1.5M. They said that the digital signal would ring in the cable, and if the cable was shorter than 1.5M, the echo in the... | |
