| Home Theater 101 - Subwoofer question? wait for a mirage bps 150i. i went from that to an onix ufw-10 to dual svs 16-46's, back to the mirage, and now a sunfire true sub eq. to my ears and in my room, the mirage still bests them all in sound quality. the only caveat for me was i tended... | |
| Converting Power Cords into Speaker Cables? look at 6moons white lightning diy | |
| Pioneer Elite BDP-05FD while the difference is clear(bluray v. dvd), it isn't like watching standard def TV(awful)vs. high def tv on my PS3. i'm leaning towards your player. | |
| Pioneer Elite BDP-05FD well, that isn't entirely true. dig optical or coax has enough bandwidth for 2 channels of hd audio. | |
| Audyssey XT Room Calibration help.... dude, it calibrates for optimal response in your room. IF your cables change the response of your speakers then it affects audysee's readings and calibration adjustments. what makes you think that audysee would cancel any improvements made by a ch... | |
| Audyssey XT Room Calibration help.... btw, those are very informative threads kal linked to. definately read them. calibrate as many positions as possible. | |
| Audyssey XT Room Calibration help.... kal, if you ain't a cable guy then fine, but...the receiver generates the test tone which in turn travels through the speaker cables which then is reproduced by the speakers. it would stand to reason that, if one beleives cables make a difference ... | |
| Audyssey XT Room Calibration help.... i would suggest that because speaker cable affects the sound reproduced by the speakers from the receiver generating the test tones that recalibration when changing those is necessary. power cord to the amp would affect the sound as well. ic's are... | |
| Blu Ray Player i didn't mean it like that my freind. i may have offered my opinion improperly, mr. ray. i was just trying to support what mr. reynolds was saying. from what i have read many are happy with the oppo. | |
| Blu Ray Player it would seem, to me at least, that it would be a waste to invest in a powerful new receiver and then go backwards in technology with a standard dvd player. i would suggest simply making a choice as to which peice of equipment to upgrade NEXT. eit... | |
| Universal DVD Player yes and yes. | |
| I always do something stupid... here's one i JUST discovered. only cuz i'm a fidgeter, i was poking around the back of my sub. guess what! i had it plugged into the high pass OUT jack! audyssee didn't catch anything funny and neither did i. it actually sounded ok. i keep the sub... | |
| popping sound from l and r speakers hi, i apologize i did not get back to this thread sooner. unfortunately the email is at work and i can't access from home. but monday, i will certainly send it. i see you are running a nuforce amp. it would seem to me that digital and chip amps(wh... | |
| popping sound from l and r speakers just found the email from jaton. they say this is caused because some pre's do not mute the 1/2 second when sources are switched and that causes the pop. they suggested a 3.9 kohm resistor in between the input signal and its ground. i am not a dyi... | |
| popping sound from l and r speakers as far as i understand it, and it's minimal, there is a specific resistor that is installed in either the pre/pro or amp that mutes or absorbs that pop. some units have it some don't. some combinations will cause pop, some won't even with or witho... |
