Entire system cable recommendation
DNM HFTN IC's and Speaker Wire, solid core copper so neutral it is like having co cable at all. If bought new you could do your system for about 1k depending on length, and send the rest to the Rodge827 Hurricane Sandy Recovery Fund :-). OK maybe ... 
Has anyone heard the DSPeaker?
Been using the Dual Core 2.0 as a Dac, preamp and room correction for about a year. Very highly recommended with a high quality 12v battery or linear power supply. My system is a 2.2 rig and going with the DNM HFTN cables as upgrade is worth every... 
Setting up dual subwoofers to a two channel amp.
I had a 2.2 set up with a single driver speaker, matching subs, and a 300b set amp. I ran direct from the amp to the main speaker then a jumper from the main speaker to the powered subs. I tried to dial in the subs as best as possible, but had nul...

When is it to hot to cut the grass?
Most of us in Arizona don't have any grass, it's a waste of water.True, but when my wife was a kid in the 70's water conservation wasn't as big a deal as it is today. The population was much smaller in The Valley Of The Sun and it was later that w... 
When is it to hot to cut the grass?
I grew up and live in Eastern South Jersey near the coast. My wife is from the Phoenix area, and her Dad had her cut the grass as a kid. He sat in the shade with a cold one and a stogie "coaching" her on the fine points of yard management. To her ...

Ragmsmd,You won't loose your money. Paypal will see to that, just file a complaint and they will work out a refund for you. Tim means well, but he is tethered to a very small company that can't keep up with demand. As I mentioned to Foster9 in an ... 
solid core interconnect below 500.00pr.-which one
I'm very happy using the DNM HFTN Solid Core IC's $498.00 a 1 meter pair. DNM has made the same cable for some 30ish years and about 3 years ago did a redesign and added the High Frequency Termination Network (HFTN). Exactly what the HFTN does is ... 
Let's talk SUBS
The 8033c corrects for your sub only. Audessy will calibrate speaker size, distance, time delays, speaker balance, etc. The 8033c is attached in between the sub out and sub. I runs independent of everything else. The 8033c will optimize your sub b... 
How much do you have to spend, to get a good Sub?
Shelby+Kroll Woofer Monitors are designed for use as a music sub. 10" 300w Bash amp that will play fast, low and clean. 
Let's talk SUBS
Whichever sub(s) you decide on, get a Dspeaker Antimode to go with it. I have the 8033c on my HT sub (SVS 20-39 PC+) and use the Dual Core for my 2 channel rig. Do a search and check out the great reviews and owner comments on these very good pieces.
