| Best used preamp processor I'm bias but IMHO the Theta Casanova is hard to beat. | |

| Cable IMHO the loom has definiate advantages over the mix and match route. I recently completed a Kubala-Sosna loom and while I wasn't expecting the last addition to change much, I was pleasently suprised at how it pulled everything together. | |
| Wondering about Usher Mini Dancers The US vs other version of the BE 718's has something to do with the crossovers. If you search the web, you'll find lots of information about this. Also, you'll find the Music Matters guys to be very responsive in answering questions about this is... | |
| Usher 718 BE's vs Focal 1007 BE's Tef8568... I'm in complete agreement with everything you so eliquently say about the Usher BE 718’s. Being a little crazy, I sold my Usher’s and purchased a pair of Focal BE Micro Utopia’s. Its taken me about 3 months of fiddling around with them,... | |
| matching center channel to mains/rears Id be curious to learn how many guys & gals that dont have separate 2 channel and home theater systems change the center speaker when they change the front speakers. My center speaker is a Monitor Audio Silver, and on my journey to TAS, Ive... | |
| Help in upgrading monitors. Goose makes a good point about the Focals, but if you can tame them down, theyre very rewarding. I went from Usher BE 718s to Focal BE Micro Utopias. The Ushers sound twice their size and are incredibly musical. The Focals are unforgiving wi... | |
| subwoofer cable recommendations. Morgoth360... I recently purchased a Synergistic Research Alpha Sterling Active XLR subwoofer cable to compliment my new JL Audio f112 subwoofer. The Alpha Sterling is Synergistic's least expensive subwoofer cable. The Cable Company said "my sub w... | |
| Inexpensive XLR cable for SUB I've read here that Signal Cable (Frank) will custom make a subwoofer interconnect for you if you ask, i.e. add more than one wire per run. If you study what one of the higher end cable manufacturers says about the difference between the three sub... | |
| Help mapping input on Theta Casa Nova It's possible that your speaker settings, crossovers & etc. arn't set up as "Global". If that's the case, you've got to individually go through the Setup menus with the Imput Select button set to your CD, and the A/D button set to the Toslink ... | |
| What gives? CD’s, Solid State? Back when Stereophile and TAS went from using zip coded address labels to bar coded address labeling, I remember reading Letters to the Editors threatening to cancel subscriptions if the dreaded digital bar code continued to be printed was on the ... | |
| Changing to bookshelf speakers. Recommendations? I'll second what Tbromgard says about the Usher's. Having owned them, and presently owning Focal JMLab BE Micro Utopia's my guess is that you'd like the hard to describe unique quality of the Usher's to sound like a "much bigger speaker". | |
| JMLab Cobalt 810s, match w/JMLab 800 center? How's this for a "match"... my L & R front speakers are JMLabs Micro Utopia BE's and my center is a Monitor Audio Silver series. I bet lots of Audiogoners' have "mismatched" fronts especially if they're 2 channel guys. | |
| Subwoofer for Focal Utopia Be's. I'm running a JL Audio F112 sub with my Focal Micro Utopia BE's and I'm really happy with how they integrate. I think you need a fast sub to keep up with the Focal's. |
