SVS SUBWOOFERS
"Take classical music out of the equation and then how does the SVS sealed(or ported) subs measure up?" Sorry but Jacintha Number 6 sounded like a classical album, my bad. Disregard any bit about classical music. I should have done my homework bef... 
SVS SUBWOOFERS
"I tested many subwoofers in 15 years of time. You Always need a closed subwoofer with only one bass unit in the front to get stealth integration."Bo,I don't doubt your experience, obviously much more than me.I have two sealed subs up front, one i... 
SVS SUBWOOFERS
09-21-13: Bo1972"I saw them and heard them. Even wenn you give them me for free I would not want these f.....ugly sub's. They are too slow."Are you speaking about the PC subs or all SVS subs? If the SVS SB13 Plus or SB13 Ultra are considered slow,... 
SVS SUBWOOFERS
I do not own an SVS PC sub but do own an SB13 Plus and could not be more pleased with it for music and HT. I also own a fantastic Revel B15($3300.00) which msrp'd for more than twice the SB13P($1500.00), and the SVS has no trouble at all keeping u... 
The Marantz 7005 analog output needs help.
"The speakers have to be cranked up to get good sound out of them. The output from the marantz drops off in direct mode."Sounds like an voltage gain/input sensitivity mismatch somewhere. Are both your Naim and Oppo players hooked up to the Emotiva... 
Amp recommendation for Klipsch Heresy
If you or buddy can get a a hold of a Luxman R-117 receiver, you would be hard pressed to find a better sounding solid state receiver to mate with a pair of Heresys. I drove my Heresys with vintage Marantz, NAD, B&K preamp/amp combo, and other... 
Integrated Amp for Klipsch RF-7II
Sideswiper,If you are looking at the $1500.00ish price bracket, may I suggest the NAD C375BEE or C375BEE DAC. Either will have no trouble at all driving those four 10 inch woofers and opening up the rest of the range. I think the NAD sound and Kli... 
Klipsch Cornwall III
I am not sure if they have their Klipsch Heritage sound room completed but give W.C. at Panacea Engineering a call and pick his brain. W.C. is a top shelf guy and great deal with.http://panaceaengineering.com/sound-rooms/Bill 
Sub-woofer fast enough for Horns?
I own both a Revel B15 and an SVS SB13 Plus(95% same as SB13 Ultra) and I think they both are very fast. Very musical subs with punch and timing. All I own is horns and both of these subs keep up very well.I bet a JL Audio F110 and F112 are both v... 
AV Receiver Underpowered?
"I checked out the Emotiva site and saw they partnered with Sherbourn. They have a Sherbourn PT-7020A on sale. It has the pre-outs so I could "add" an amplifier later."Butrflynlambie,The Sherbourn PT-7020A is a preamp/processor so you would have t... 
WARM 5 channel amp - suggestions?
B&K Reference 200.5 or Reference 7250. Both are almost identical amps(7250 older) with mosfet output transistors that have a more "warmish" tone. Plenty of power to drive most speakers out there.Bill 
Need help on choosing a sub-woofer?
Two SVS13 Ultras all the way. The build quality and performance are way above their price point. The customer service is up there with the best.Bill 
Anthem Statement D2V
One of the best(if not the best) preamp/processors on the market for half price is an incredible deal. Find out about that warranty because that would even sweeten the deal even more.Bill 
Amp with best bass control
Anyone thought about the new offerings from Indy Audio Labs? The new Aragon 8008 and Iridium monoblocks look very promising. I don't know how they stack up against some of the amps mentioned but if they are anything like the Mondial design Aragons... 
What's Up with ATI?
If I had to guess, ATI's main focus is to keep producing rock solid amplifiers under their name and for others an OE mfr. How many HDMI preamp/processors have hit the market in the last few years with glitches out the ying/yang? Too many to count....
