| Bob Carver 180 Mono-blocks perform superbly Mil, You've confirmed my suspicion, hemoe was forced to hire someone who could actually diagnose and solder rather then simply shotgunning wire boards and power supplies to repair the rest of their dreck. Love to hear any actual inside information... | |
| Bob Carver 180 Mono-blocks perform superbly I can't imagine anybody at anotivia knows how to solder let alone diagnose a problem. | |
| Class D and Power Cables When I upgraded my 12/3 romex junction boxed house wiring to a dedicated sub-panel with 20 amp breakers for each run of metal clad 10 g BX, there was a very substantial improvement. With the old 1972 wiring my class D PS Audio HCA-2 was creating R... | |
| Where's Digital playback at today ? Bill (Bhobba) is one of the more interesting digi-seekers to follow. Personally, I took him up on his impressions of the Metrum Acoustics Octave. For under $700 I finally found a more analog digital presentation that I could listen to comfortably.... | |
| have a sub question "Forget svs & hsu. REL makes the best subs in the business."I couldn't disagree more. In my experience and direct comparisons with a REL Studio III, its uniqueness is its shortcoming. Many powered subwoofers offer the option of inline high lev... | |

| Subwoofer for Beginner A good sub is a universally usable component. Buying a cheap farter will only turn you off. A sub/s with good EQ will blend seamlessly and resale easier if need be.http://app.audiogon.com/listings/subwoofers-velodyne-dd-12-digital-drive-subwoofer-... | |
| Best movie to see what your HT AUDIO will do. Another vote for Master And Commander mainly because of the native 7.1 sound track. Foley sound is such a stunningly underrated art form and in this film they are extremely well done. I know what a cannon sounds like in real life but the sound of ... | |
| Bob Carver 180 Mono-blocks perform superbly How do you bias the tube sets without an attenuator turned full counter clockwise?Lacking deep bass, compared to what (speakers and amplifiers)? According to the manual Velodyne Room Optimization program I'm getting almost the same frequency depth... | |
| Best Audio Electronics for Paradigm S8v3 Speakers I dislike going against the adage 'if you don't have anything good to say' but if my frustration can be of any help...Before I had any in home experience with a decent speaker system I joined the Paradigm fan club. Purchasing the Studio 100 v1 wit... | |
| MF M1Clic - Adding Velodyne sub It's impossible to tell simply by reading the specs but your amplifier appears to be underpowered for your speakers. If that is the case then Bob has given you some important advise to consider.The DD-10 Plus is a very potent sub with far less dis... | |
| Mola-Mola Kaluga Ncore-based Monos: An impression Al, I agree. As I said my nC400 sounds better than my friends by simply using a different wire were possible. Don't get me wrong I'm not bitching about their retail price. In the end its all about what you want.Looking at the larger SMPS1200 it's ... | |
| Mola-Mola Kaluga Ncore-based Monos: An impression My nCore 400s are mounted on a nice piece of rock Maple. Enamored by the DIY factor and their low cost a friend just completed a pair housed in very nice thick aluminum casework. His wire choice is different from mine which may account for the sli... | |
| Where's the talk/reviews on the Emotiva UMC-200? After reading a post on the emo lounge amplifier forum by Archie questioning who emo uses to produce their components. About to make a large HT purchase he was concerned how emo could offer their products at such far lower pricing compared to othe... | |
