| Did anybody else notice this about PSB Speakers? you know this could also be a shift of the industry to more modest budget items or even items that provide bang for the buck. Brands that have been making good stuff at a entry level price are getting lots of cred lately. I'm thinking of PSB, era,... | |
| small speakers Anyone know how much power the 320 puts out? I'm running a set of the D5's with a NAD L73 (rated 60 wpc) and it can easily go to ear bleeding levels. Note that NAD generally estimates the power output very conservatively so when they say 60, they ... | |
| Small speakers...big sound?? I just finished my home system build and one things that I learned in the process (6 months with maybe 25 speakers/packages auditioned) is that small speakers do not have to mean small sound. I started with a notion that I needed big speakers and ... | |
| Vienna Acoustic Hayden grand or Polk audio lsi9 Vienna's. no question. I listened extensively to both with a variety of music and similar electronics and locations. I was able to play with the setup on both and in every way the Vienna's were better. I found the Polks to be disappointing in seve... | |
| Speaker Placement Problem aren't there some Dyn's with front porting? | |
| Need help selecting bookshelf speakers for theatre I just finished my system in the back/workout room. I would up running it with a NAD player/receiver/amp integrated with 60WPC into my zone 2 speakers. THese are ERA D5 units on 36" stands. I know that the D5's are very good bookshelf speakers and... | |
| Speaker suggestions Not to dis anyone but the Polk's are simply not even close in performance to what you can get for $6K. IMO there better options out there for $2K. Suspect I just annoyed someone there...sorry. $6K will get you a pretty nice set of full range speak... | |
| Words From the Wise heres one I've not seen but has proven its value to me. Take up a musical instrument. I've been learning to play guitar (6 string electric) and i feel that I have a very good idea about what the instrument should sound like and little aspects of i... | |
| Home Theater 101 - Subwoofer question? actually I would think that the better the sub the better it can be blended with the rest of your system. a donkey sub is just a boom box and is more noticeable in my opinion. I have a JLF112 and its a great sub that I often forget its there. It j... | |
| Recommendations for rear speakers w/ PSB Synchrny2 Gotcha Tbromgard. I went with matched rears and IMO spent too much as there is far less content in the rear channels than I'd expected as well as it not seeming to be as important to match. I think if I do it again I'll not sweat the rears and onl... | |
| Recommendations for rear speakers w/ PSB Synchrny2 I dont think enough voice comes through the rears to really matter doe it? I'd be very comfortable with rears that fit your budget/WAF and such without the same vendor constraint. | |
| Paradigm in Wall match for Signature S8/C5 v2/v3 I would not get too worried about matching your surrounds to your front/center units. If you plan on running music in evenly distributed 5.0/5.1/7.0/7.1 than I can see it but for HT the rears can easily be different. I personally can't tell. As fo... | |
| Opinions on Full-Range/single driver speakers looks like an older post restarted. One thought for the author of this. to get sound pressure at any freq to the listener the cone needs to move at that freq and for a fixed area of driver the excursion needs to alter. Think volume of air moved. I... | |
| Beautiful Monitors? the WAF as a medium factor for me. of all we looked at the biggest WAF for the money was the ERA models in African Rosewood. Veneer look about an inch deep. Looked at everything in the portland oregon metro area (maybe 20 brands or more) and none ... | |
| Budget DVD Player Recommendation PS2 at $100. decodes most stuff (no blue ray), at least my old one does and sounds pretty good. Heck buy 2 and have a spare. |
