| Optimal Speaker Placement The best position is where you like how it sounds. There are so many variables in accoustics, I doubt any formula is perfect, but it is worth some effort I guess. My system is in some sort of triangle like many/most people. I have a small sofa in ... | |
| Cables "Burn In" Do the cables settle in, or do we settle in to the cable?If a cables will never fully settle-in from normal use, then if we just buy a cable that we like in this partially burned-in state, we can forget about trying to burn it in more, and just en... | |
| Best IC with SS system. You could try Blue Circle BC95. BC's Gilbert Yeung is a Martin Logan fan and uses ML speakers as his reference. | |
| need help on a subwoofer cable? What kind of sub is it? No amp/receiver has a speaker out. If it is a high pass speaker connection, then you just connect the sub speaker connection to the same place as your regular speaker wires. It is OK to combine the two wires on the same con... | |

| Anyone own "EDDIE FROM OHIO"??????? Damn---All the interesting stuff at the Calvin is never when I am in town visiting. (I live in Maryland, but grew up in Northampton; NHS Class of 77). Was just an old movie theater way back then.Same story with the Iron Horse Cafe. | |
| Home Theater speakers on a massive budget It does help to use the same type of speaker, if you care that the balance and voicing is uniform and even. I don't think that extends to the subwoofer.I am using four of the older B&W DM302 all around with the matching CC-3 center. I also use... | |

| Hissing sound from right speaker Klyne preamps are solid state!! I really think he does not have a bad tube.Could be a bad resistor, which is why I would seek professional help. Call Klyne first. | |
| Am I going insane? B&W cult? More like a bash B&W cult judging form other Agon theads. Almost every post mentions system synergy, not that B&W is better for all uses.I owned a pair of Bostons for 11 years. They are actually an excellent choice for receiv... | |
