| B&W Matrix 801 Series II I have been busy but plan to get down to hear the speakers late in the week and see what I think with fresh eyes and ears. I have read and reread every post which has me more interested in the speakers and I am a sucker for a massively built cabin... | |
| B&W Matrix 801 Series II After reading all of the posts I am leaning toward seeing if I can borrow them for a test drive depending on what shape the speakers are in (thanks CT0517). I do have a Parasound A31 3 channel amp that is 250 watts @8ohm. I just got it and haven't... | |
| Some amplifier questions The width of the wall is 14' but I have a television and two doors to contend with so there won't be much room for adjusting speakers.The floor is hardwood over concrete.3-4 weeks is correct. | |
| Some amplifier questions Finsup,I think I will wait until I get it all together before I ad a sub. I don't know what size I would need but I did look at JL Audio Fantom series and they look good to me. A cylinder sub also sounds like a great option. i have never heard of ... | |
| B&W Matrix 801 Series II Wow! You have some serious gear! Great looking room. Your 801s look better than the ones I am looking at which are an Oak finish I would guess. They kind of look like Early American furniture, really dated. The room is a nice size because it is a ... | |
| Some amplifier questions All the better if I don't need a sub. i really don't want to clutter up the room any more than i have to, not to mention the expense. I think I have decided on the R-600 as the center. It will take a month to get my stands so I will order it a lit... | |
| B&W Matrix 801 Series II The room is about 29'x29'x11'. I am not sure what I will put in front of them since I am under the impression they need a lot of power. My best pieces are a Mac c2300 and MC275. However, I have those running a pair of Klipschorns. I also have some... | |
| Some amplifier questions I don't really have a budget but want to pick one that would would fit my system in performance. I am under the impression that a sub would really help my system. You don't agree? It would have to be one sub. I just don't have room for two. | |
| Some amplifier questions Tim, haven't received your email, yet. I did buy stands for the LS50s from Soundanchors. They suggested the adjustable ones where I can tilt the speakers since my listening position is so high. I also ordered an audio rack that will accommodate th... | |
| Some amplifier questions I am getting closer. I ordered the stands from Soundanchors today. I chose the single post adjustable stand. You can angle the speaker as well as adjust its height. To make the system complete I still need a center speaker and a sub. According to ... | |
| Some amplifier questions Tim and Finsup,I did purchase a Parasound A31( I bet I did pay too much for it) which should be here Wednesday and I ordered an Oppo 105D and a pair of LS50 speakers last week. What I am missing are speaker stands, a center speaker and a sub which... | |
| Some amplifier questions Tim, Thanks for checking on stands for me. I did order the KEF LS50s yesterday. I talked to one of their guys about a center. It appears their are about 4 options that would work. The R200, R600, Ls50 or no center. He seemed to think all were good... | |
| Some amplifier questions Tim, You have my interest up for considering other amp options besides Emotiva. I looked up everything you suggested.1. I couldn't find any prices on a 3 channel Rotel and no used ones.2. Wyred 4 Sound has a great looking amp for $1775 but they ar... | |
| Some amplifier questions Tim, Thanks for the research. I really appreciate your detailed posts. I have read each one several times. I will be rereading the one about how to hook up the Oppo when it arrives. Where I live ( in Oklahoma) there is no place besides Best Buy th... | |
| Some amplifier questions Here is what I am thinking to get started. 1. Oppo 1052. Kef ls50 pair3. Emotiva XPA-3 power ampI thought I would order these pieces then see if I needed a center channel or a sub. Any other suggestions from anyone? Is there a better way to go? BT... |
