| subwoofers: the bigger the better? I did not place my two subs for most bass output..They certainly have plenty of output for my tastes. I placed my subs for the maximum in intergration with their fullrange brothers..They are about 5 out about inches from the outside edge of each m... | |

| Preamp Deal of the Century Rodger I am refering to one single method of mechanical grounding and thats via the Audiopoints products. As far as electrical grounding goes. I found dynamics and timing improved if all major components[amp, pre-amp, main source]all share a commo... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Rodger I would first recommend, as a point of reference, for ever more that you mechanically ground all your components... Do not mix and match different coupling devices they all have different ground potentials..And do not intermingle so-called ... | |
| Spiking a Velodyne HGS18 II I use Sistrum Platforms under my stereo pair of Paradigm Servo 15's, much more tunefull and better vocals as well... My friend with Klipsch K-Horns has Sistrum Platforms under each of the horns and one under his Velodyne HGS 18. Incredible clarity... | |
