I'm looking for some hi fi in walls at a value price. These JBL's can be found under $200 pr but I don't have the luxury of auditioning them since no one locally carries them. I like the Northridge speakers but havn't heard th new E versions. I contacted JBL support and was told the HTi in...

I need to ship mine to Denon and I'd rather have the original box and foam packaging if possible. If you don't need yours, let me know. Thanks.

Purchased from another member with the intent to drive a pair of SVS or Hsu subs for a basement theater that hasn't materialized. Have not really used it since testing upon receiving it and has been kept boxed up. Selling to fund a processor upgrade to my current system. Asking the same price...

I have been trying to reach them for the past 4 business days regarding the 5800/5803 Upgrade and Denon Link upgrades and all I get is leave a name and number and we'll call you back within 24 hours. Well each time I have done so and nothing. Any other company and I at least get put on a wait...

Looking for speaker stands for Polk Lsi-9. Size should be 28-30". Currently considering Sanus Euro Foundations if I can't find anything better for the price.

I recently picked up the 3803 as an upgrade to the 3802 used as a preamp but not 100% pleased with the 3803's brighter presentation. I have the opportunity to return the 3803 for a Demo 5800 for another $500. While the 5800 I always thought was a very good receiver it seems outdated today...

I need a sub for the car and it looks like the Image Dynamics IDQ V2 series is reportedly a good performer. I of course know next to nothing about car audio. The IDQ has the advantage of working in a small enclosure. I am considering using dual 10" or a single 12" probably in a sealed...

I'm replacing the factory HU in my car with a Kenwood eXcelon X859 to get CD/MP3 playback and would like to add a sub and amp to drive it. What are you guys usng in your vehicles? I was thinking maybe one of those Hsu car subs in an enclosure but don't see them listed on the Hsu website.

Is anyone here using the MyHD (MIT MDP-100) HDTV PCI tuner card to view OTA HDTV and record the ATSC bitstream to hard drive for post archive to a JVC DVHS VCR? I would appreciate your feedback on how reliably this card works in performing these tasks with the latest drivers and software. TIA

Does anyone have experience with the CC warranty on RPTV's and can recommend for or against it?

In the case of a Sony 61HS30 4:3 set that has the vertical compression compared to the Sony 57HS40 16:9 RPTV the widescreen/letterbox area on the display is roughly equal in size, and the resolution identical. On the 16:9 set the widescreen source (1.78:1) will fill the entire screen where the...

What are the possible "future" consequences of not having a DVI or firewire interface on and HD set? I will be getting HD via Dishnetwork 6000 with the OTA HT tuner module. The new HD sets are including the interface but are priced significantly more as new models typically are. Should I...

I'm curious as to which pre/pro or receivers that former Denon 3802 owners have upgraded to. I currently use a Denon 3802 as pre/pro along with a Sherwood AM9080 amplifier and the sound is quite good with both digital and analog. I plan to keep the 3802 but am trying to come up with a list...

Are any of you guys using this Hsu driver in DIY designs? I have a TN1220 that I believe uses the older 1201 driver. Has their been any significant improvements or changes to the drivers parameters in the new 1202. Also, is the ASW1202 the same driver used in the TN1220 and VTF-3. I know it...

How much of an improvement would the Bass optimizer have on a TN1220HO run by a non-Hsu amplifier. Hsu also mentions that the box can be configured as a hi pass filter but seems like you lose the bass optimizer feature. It would really be nice if I could use it as bass enhance or hi pass...

How good is this center speaker? I am considering going with this line for HT and the Polk LSi is getting some good initial reviews, but I'm not sure if the center isn't the weak link since I have a large room to fill. I'm still debating whether to give the LSi-9 or LSi-15 a try. I'd go...

I have the H/K PA5800 and considering upgrading to the Sig 2.1 or maybe the Sherwood. Another option is the Sherbourn 5/1500 but it's twice the price. Not sure I really need it since I don't plan to power floorstanders.

The VR3's are intended for surrounds in a VT-3 setup but can also be used as mains according to the manual. Curious to know if anyone has this combo up front and how it compares to VT-2 (or newer VT-2.4), 2.9's, and 3.3's from the midbass on up.

I'm curious as to what amps that owners of the PA5800 have upgraded to and your impressions.

Would the 950 do a better job on CD then the 555es changer? Bete testers: What source for CD would be comparable to the 950 IYHO.

Anyone have experience with the Camera Shop in Hanover? I saw them listed on B&W's site as an authorized retailer. gil

I am interested in a monitor speaker (SF Electa Amator II) that utilizes a passive radiator in the rear but am reluctant to try it since I need to place this speaker 1-2ft from the back wall. The speakers actually need to be set up in a corner of the room and the back of the speaker would be...

I am considering getting either the 3 channel version or the 5 channel version. Has anyone had the opportunity to compare the new model against the old to see if their is a significant improvement? I would like the amp to able to drive at least one pair of 4ohm nominal speakers with a...

I have the opportunity to trade in my Denon AVR3801 for the 3802 for a couple hundred more. It seems like getting DPL2 for that price is like adding a separate DPL2 decoder (if one was actually available) and without the inconvenience of having to switch between processors. Are there any...

Which speaker lines work very well in home theater applications and still sound very good with music. My primary choice is the B&W CDM-NT but I have not auditioned in awhile so I am looking for suggestions before making a commitment. The setup will be 6.1 or 7.1 arrangement.

How does the performance/sound of the CDM9-NT compare to the CDM7-NT and N804? From what I understand the drivers in the CDM9 are the same as the N804 and the major difference is in the cabinet. I can't afford the N804 but could stretch the budget to the CDM9. One option is to get CDM7 now...

I'm currently in the planning stage for a dedicated HT room. The dimensions are about 23'x14" with 7' ceiling. Would like to do a 2nd row and possibly a third. What stage height is recommended to get an acceptable view from the rear seats?

Is this used in plywood form or hardwood boards? How much better is it than MDF for the endcaps if you intend to paint it gloss black? Although I do love the look of birch, I want the sub black for a theater room.

I'd like to keep the footprint down and want to go with a smaller diameter tube over the popular standard 24" EBS design (what is EBS anyway?) My use will be primarily HT but would like the sub to deliver tight and tuneful bass for musical scores on concert/music dvd's and occasional...

I need a new pair of headphones. I've had a pair of closed Sony's for some time that are getting a bit ragged. It seems the 580's are highly recommended but difficult to find. Are the 590's the replacement and are they considered to be improved ver the 580's? Also, I'm not familiar with...
