| where do you cross over your ht setup You're kidding right? I have no problems with EQ's. Not sure where you gathered that from. I'm also not sure what "old ideas" you think I'm holding on to. If you can get linear response to 20hz with your mains why cut them off at 80hz? If you can ... | |
| where do you cross over your ht setup If you need to EQ a single sub because of room response or poor speaker selection and placement then go for it. You totally destroy the DD or DTS mix in the process. I can understand crossing over surrounds at 80 - 120 if the surrounds aren't desi... | |
| Anthem AVM20 How Good? The best aspect of the Anthem is the flexibility of its crossover settings. It allows you to maximize the low bass potential from each channel in your HT system. The settings start at 25hz (much lower than many HT processors) and work their way up... | |
| where do you cross over your ht setup First I must say everything im writing here assumes one has proper amplification for each channel in his system. It also assumes sustained SPL levels no greater than what each channel is capable of. Crossing over at standards designed around large... | |
| Audioquest Dialectric-Bias System Any update for us Reb? Have your highs returned? | |
| SACD my thoughts at this time..................... Good thoughts from everyone here. I enjoyed the read. Without extreme cooperation from the record industry SACD will never take over the mainstream. The vast majority of mainstream playback systems are incapable of resolving the difference. Just a... | |
| The absolute best and worst-sounding CD you own ? About Alison Krauss and Union Station "Live". Its good no doubt. However "Now that Ive found you: A collection" is the best sounding release from Alison Krauss. The vocals are smoother and more natural sounding, less hiss and breath, more voice. I... | |

| XRCD Technology I have two XRCD's, one of which "The Eagles - Hell Freezes Over" is stunning and ranks up there with the very best of redbook performance. The other XRCD I own "Dire Straits - Brothers In Arms" sounds very thin with pumped up treble. The Warner Br... | |
| McIntosh and Autoformers. . .? Hantrax, ive heard both the 202, 352 and 402 on b&w N803s. Yes the 202 sounds very similiar to the 402. I think the 402 is overkill for N803's and below. That said, you will get a higher signal to noise ratio with the 402 resulting in a slight... | |
| Home Theatre Processor reccomendation Well... I wasnt able to A/B both units on the Bryston amp. However, I will say that using the Anthem AVM 20 with the Bryston amp produced clean and resolved upper mids - highs. Much like my experience with the Bryston SP 1.7 using the same amp. It... | |
| Home Theatre Processor reccomendation Picasso_04901Well my result was inconclusive. Due to time contraints I wasnt able to audition each with the same amp. The Bryston was on a 4B SST running B&W n803's. We then moved the n803's over to the Anthem AVM20. Although the cd player was... | |
| Home Theatre Processor reccomendation Im looking at the Bryston SP 1.7 and Anthem AVM20. In fact im going to audition both side by side on monday. The main reason im interested in these units is the analog bypass mode. This bypasses all the HT processing within each unit making a soli... | |
| Rcver sub output avail: both LFE + 2 Ch stereo? My reciever is a RX-V3000. Dont get caught up on model and brand. This is a common feature within your price range. If you set your mains to "small" in the reciever you will get base from your subwoofer in 2ch listening. The frequency at which thi... | |
| Rcver sub output avail: both LFE + 2 Ch stereo? I believe most reasonably priced recievers should have three modes for setting up a subwoofer. On my Yamaha I have a setting called LFE/BASS OUT. The 3 selections are 1.Subwoofer 2.Mains 3.Both. Using the "Both" setting, my subwoofer is active for... |
