I left a voice message on the Cary Direct sales number, but they never called back. It is absurd that they dont have a return ... | |

| Does the first reflection point actually matter?? The closer the reflection point is to the speaker the more it will matter. Likely more evident in smaller rooms. In my case, side walls are about 2feet away from the speakers. I treated them with a diffuser/absorber combo panels (soundplanks from ... | |
| Seems tough to ensure only subwoofer is playing bass frequencies (& not the main speakers) m-db and elliottbnewcombjr, thanks very much for pointing out the high pass output feature in the sub.I think its possible to connect it up as follows:(full range) Line level output from Dac => Rca inputs on subwoofer => High pass line level... | |
| Seems tough to ensure only subwoofer is playing bass frequencies (& not the main speakers) The integrated’s subwoofer/mono output is actually a speaker level output. The RCA (right/left) LFE input on the subwoofer is a line level input. Don’t think its possible to hook them up (if I understand you correctly). My integrated does not have... | |
| Seems tough to ensure only subwoofer is playing bass frequencies (& not the main speakers) I would not mind using multiple subs of the same type for that purpose. In this case, the passive woofers from the ported main speakers produce qualitatively different bass than the high powered sealed subwoofer. I'd prefer to let 1 or more subs ... | |

| Venture Audio a couple years ago i heard Venture Audio speakers at THE Short Newport Beach. It was a memorable experience. Simply mesmerized by the Pink Floyd track they were playing. Simply awesome looking and sounding .. However waaaaaay toooooo expensive. On... | |
| Suggestions for New/Used amp under $3500 BTW.. Thanks for your inputs. Its not that i am having trouble getting goose bumps, i am just looking to see what improvements are feasible within that budget. | |
| Suggestions for New/Used amp under $3500 Soix.... Actually CI Audio shipped me one of their Preamps (VPC3) when I reported lack of any significant improvements. That helped the comparison since it was easier to level match and A/B test the CI audio pre-amp + amp against the Denon by itse... | |
| Suggestions for New/Used amp under $3500 Since the whole exercise cost me a few hundred dollars (restocking fee + return shipping), i am bit reluctant to try other amps listed here. | |
| Suggestions for New/Used amp under $3500 update.. i tried the d200 mk2 from ci audio and ended up returning them. Did some A/B against my Denon receiver and found it really hard to spot any difference. I was a bit surprised but at the same time pleased. | |
