| Speaker placement along the long wall Jadem6, Unsound, LugnutThe speaker wall is completely bare. I may consider a thick wall rug or something. I don't think I'm allowed to place tube traps or any such materials. | |
| Speaker placement along the long wall Sol322,The dog effect is on track#1. You really have to increase the volume a bit to hear the first dog effect behind you right at the start of the track. Sometimes later the dog moves to the right and the barking is more pronounced. A lot of peop... | |
| Speaker placement along the long wall Gentlemen, thanks for all the encouragement/insights. I moved the speakers last night as a trial and I'm quite surprised by the result! I placed the speakers a foot away from the wall and 7' apart (inside edge-to-edge) with a slight toe-in. I coul... | |
| Need inexpensive amp help and questions on Hype For around $1000 you can get a Citation5.1 amp and an Audible Illusion 2D or a Conrad Johnson PV5 tube pre-amp. Both pre-amps have really good phono stages as well. | |
| Integrated Amp for Girlfriend? How about Anthem Integrated 1? | |
| Specifications Bandwidth: 19 Hz - 25 kHz ...? In general bandwidth is defined by FWHM (Full Width at Half maximum) at a given amplitude (gain) or SPL level, which is 3db down for power as in SPL and 6db down for voltage/current. This is regardless of any amplitude variation within pass band.A... | |
| Bridge or not to bridge Question for Michael_elliott:Since most amps employ feedback for stability, is it wishful thinking that the same stability is maintained in bridged mode without adding additional circuitry/feedback? | |
| Bridge or not to bridge As3411,Citation web page says that one can bridge Citation amps to drive their Subs. I guess they have enough confidence in their amp design. Get a four channel Citation 5.1 or 7.1 and you'll be happy. | |
| Best Upgrade for 1,000- for my system You can pick up a used tube pre-amp for two channel audio.I'm assuming you have the Citation 7.1 amps. If so, keep'em. You won't find a better bang for the buck. | |
| Best $300 Speaker Used You can also get a new pair of PSB 5T for less than $600. These are relatively full range and easy to drive. A lot of speaker for not too much money -- just like PSB Alpha A/V. | |
| Citation 7.1 CUTS out, do I need More Power? Dan,I emailed you the spec. Hope it helps. By this spec, in bridged mode, the drivers of 10Ts will probably reach their mechanical limit/extension before your 7.1 runs out of gas. | |
| Citation 7.1 CUTS out, do I need More Power? You are better off not bridging if the 10Ts are of 4Ohm nominal. The amp ends up seeing half of that load in bridged mode. Stability is also an issue in bridged mode. That said, the Citation 7.1 is supposedly stable down to 2 ohm and can still del... | |
| Ariston Tunrtable Does anyone know anything about Ariston Icon turntable? I happened to have bought one recently. Any info is appreciated. | |
| Amused To Death and Avalon Opus Amused to Death is an album that makes you wonder why there is so much fuss about multi channel music. As for the dog sound, I didn't get the barking dog behind me until I swapped the speaker polarity since my pre-amp is phase inverting. B.T.W., t... | |
| Pre with phono and headphone 1000 used? You can get a used CJ PV10A or an AR SP6 for around $600. I don't know if those have headphone out. Audible Illusion is another good one. What kind of Citation SS amp do you have? |
