In a higher price range, the HK DPR1001 looks promising.

I would see if your local Circuit City will price match the HK AVR 325 at Costco for $499. Some stores will do it, and some will not. It is definitely worth the effort...

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong here. I always thought that the preferred wiring scheme is 'coils in series, drivers in parallel.' This is due to the interaction that occurs when two slightly different drivers are wired in series. Driver-to-driver variations and uneven loading can...

You should be all right with the Skil Plunge Router, but I would avoid the Ryobi BTS10 Table Saw. I purchased one last summer, and the build quality was truly abysmal. Terrible fit & finish, with inconsistent cuts due to excessive axial slop in the motor asembly. The bearings started squealing...

Thomas, FYI: The 525 does not have main-in jacks. :frowning: I will be waiting to see if the 7200 has this feature...

IMO, the best option is an exact match for the left/right channels, in the same vertical orientation. I am a very picky listener (especially when it comes to vocals), and this is the only way I have ever achieved a sonic match that makes me happy. In fact, all seven of my channels are identical...

Hi Brendan, Wow! That sub is a steal at $100. I'm jealous. For my sonosub, I used a 33" long port with the equivalent area of a 6" diameter port. Keep in mind that the displacement of the port is very significant. 225L is the net size of my enclosure, after subtracting the volumes of the...

Hi Brendan, Nice choice for a driver - I use the same sub. :) My Magma 15 is in a 225L vented enclosure, tuned to 16 hz. I am feeding it in excess of 600rms, and I am very happy with the results. Many people here on HTF helped to design my enclosure - you can read their input HERE. Two other...

I would look into Harman/Kardon receivers. If your friend is willing to buy refurbished, the AVR 120 can be purchased for $200 directly from Harman/Kardon HERE. The AVR-310 can be found for $350 using the same link. HK receivers will work with most 4-ohm speakers, as stated in HK's FAQ HERE. I...

You're in luck! :) I still have the spec sheet from my old Earthquake EQ1265's. Earthquake used the same spec sheet for all products, so here are the T/S parameters for the EQ-18CC. (CC = cast basket, cloth accordian surround) Fs 26.1 Hz Qts 0.40 Vas 13.7 ft^3 Xmax 0.3" Pe 300 rms...

Here is the spec sheet for the 15" RF Punch HX2 (RFD 2115) and 15" Power HX2 (RFR 3115): http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftec...oofers_MAN.pdf Complete T-S parameters are on page 10. I hope this helps!

Wire the voice coils of each sub in series, and the three subs in parallel. This will yield a 4 ohm load, which leaves plenty of options for amplification. Many pro amps will run at 4 ohms mono. One other point that you may (or may not) have considered. The box size will need to be much...

Sold! :) Thank you to everyone who showed interest.

Thanks for the bump, Jerry. The Yamaha M-35 is still available...

Hi Everyone, I am selling my Yamaha M-35, which is a small, bridgeable, 4-channel power amp. It would be great for bass shakers or for whole-house audio. The power output is 20x4 or 40x2. I have posted specifications and pictures on my web site HERE. $100 shipped obo. Please feel free to...

Jay, I just thought I would throw my two cents in. My Onkyo 696 / RCA DTC-100 combo has not exhibited any dropouts with HBO's DD 5.1 tracks, including the Cable Guy, the Net, and Swordfish. :)

If memory serves me correctly, the 787 will not decode DTS-ES discrete. Other than that, it is a very nice piece.

Most Luxman preamps have this feature. My TP-114 has a processor loop, along with both fixed-level and variable preamp outputs.

I use banana plugs for all connections to the receiver, amps, and speakers. The only exception is that I use a Speakon connector on my DIY monster sub. :)

note: I worked at CC a few years ago to help pay my way through school. CC typically marks a product as OOP (ending in .95) if they are almost out of stock in the main warehouses. If it is going out of production, the .95 usually accompanies a price cut. If it is a risk recall, they pull all...

You found a great deal, Ron! :) I am sure you will love the sound of the 535's.

My sub amp is a QSC Model 1400, which was one of their cinema amps. It sends 600rms to my Earthquake Magma 15, which is in a 225L vented enclosure. I do not use a low-cut filter.

Very nice sounding amps. I owned one a few years ago, but never attempted to bridge it. Actually, I am not sure if it is possible to bridge the 535. As I remember it, the power ratings were 60 x 2 rms @ 8 ohms or 100 x 2 rms @ 4 ohms. One thing stands out in my memory: be sure to provide...

Tube Driver makes some nice hybrid equipment, but if you ever have the opportunity to hear a Milbert, you will be truly amazed... :) Milbert Amplifiers

The Onkyo 696 comes close to what you are seeking, but it is in the $700-$800 range. It has the ability to reassign the surround channels to drive a pair of speakers using a second source in a second zone. The drawback is that you can not listen to 5.1 while the second zone is in use. I hope...

John and Vince, The 'Master' power button is used to disable the automatic switching. When 'on', the accessories turn on and off with the control outlet. When 'off', the accessories will remain off. I hope this helps! :)

Hi Vince, The three outlets are rated to handle a total current draw of 15 amps. Enjoy! :)
