| Help wanted choosing speakers and subwoofer In my separate HT system I was looking for musicality AND forgiveness of brightish commercial movie soundtracks, so a front trio of Spendors (S3/1p and matching SC3) works extraordinarily well. I found a great deal on a Boston PV1000 (Velo clone) ... | |
| Suggestions: Sonus Faber, Monitor Audio, Elac etc? I would caution that you ensure that your seated listening height is appropriate for short floorstanders, as those deep crossover nulls appear just above axis. So if you're on the tall side plan to sit on a British style low sofa!Many small floors... | |

| Standing vs. Seated-Big Difference in Bass??? ...but be careful that one of YOU aren't moving out next! | |
| Is this rude? Nice thread. I just finished getting all newbie-educated and in an obsessive high-energy curve bought a couple of kayaks. As a reseller of used Subarus in a one-person business, I try to be completely transparent with my potential customers, and e... | |

In addition, go to lots of live acoutic events, thus allowing you to carefully optimize speaker placement and room damping toward the holy grail. Some attention to dedicated lines and better AC delivery may be helpful too. RSVP if... | |
| Your favorite but unknown The Burns Sisters should have gotten more recognition. Check 'em out. | |
| What are the Best FM tuners? Where does my MD100 fit in? I found it a bit bright, so tamed it a little with Harm Tech Truthlink XLRs. Any easy DIY mods? Thanks. Ern | |
| recommendation of a sound level meter Rives, Thanks a bunch! Pp 3-4 should be required reading for all A'goners. I'm surprised a bit that the RS's treble peak is relatively low Q...it's a better mic than I thought.Thanks again. Ern | |
| How about a contest? Too funny, Marco! Fortunately I got a bit of help recently.... | |
| Sytrofoam peanuts and EVIL and worthless Been there, doing that, as it provides great flotation for bulkheadless kayaks! | |
| Looking for dedicated power line advice. Gotta disagree with your priorities. I'd get the Belden 83803 (from me ("cured") or on your own), and use P&S or Hubbell outlets. Teflon and good shielding DOES make a difference.... | |
| recommendation of a sound level meter What are the corrections for above 1k (where it gets REALLY inaccurate!)?Thanks. |
