Hi, Craig...long time no see...how's everything? How is the sub-woofing business? Glad to know SVS fans haven't disappeared altogther; and haven't seen much written about this company lately, so...SVS...where are 'ya?! :) -THTS "hi...my name is Frank...and am an SVS bassaholic..."

Say, mate...being away a while, so wonder what ever happened to all SVS woofing fans? ;D -THTS "Hi, my name is Frank...and am an SVS bassaholic..."

El Cid and The Fall of the Roman Empire...'till they're properly restored, mastered, and transferred to DVD...and even better...Hi-Def... -THTS

Is better than good......is grrrrrrrrrreeeeat!... :D -THTS

Our 16-46 octet and twin B-4/12 woofing babies set up produces 25 megatons going full board (eat it, Iran!)...all the while doing it mucho MUSICALLY too!... :D :D -THTS "...hi, my name is Frank...and am an SVS bassaholic!..."

Tsk, tsk, tsk... :D -THTS "...hi, my name is Frank...and am an SVS bassaholic!..."

SVS rules!... :D -THTS "...hi, my name is Frank...and am an SVS bassaholic!..."

Too bad WB didn't acquire the rights for this super-widescreen comedy epic; I think it would have had a better chance to perform some sort of restoration and HD mastering like they done with the latest 1959 Ultra-Panavision version of Ben-Hur and Todd-AO's Around the World in 80 Days, both...

That midbass "punch" is actually bloated bass--false "low end"--and has little to do with accurate low frequency bass reproduction... -THTS "...hi, my name is Frank...and am an SVS bassaholic..."

Yikes! :eek: That's a MONSTER indeed (oops!...now am going to be sued for using that term)! But one question remains: whatever happened to the SVS subs? Your "DIY" sub reminds me that I still have those two 350 Lbs. (each), 5 1/2' H x 24" W x 28" D ISOBARIK-loaded old sub enclosures...

Yeah...I too fondly remember those chats, Tom. Wish we had more but you're one busy enterpreneur now days! :) Thanks for the best wishes... Best regards, -THTS

:D :D :D -THTS

Hi, Chris! :) 1.- :D :D :D 2.- That's great news! Now I think I'll drink a few suds to your health... 3.- Thank you indeed, Sir! :) -THTS "...hi, my name is Frank...and am an SVS bassaholic..."

...so are a lot of folks in the Lake Shasta area...! :D -THTS "...hi, my name is Frank...and am an SVS bassaholic..."

...when the "big" HT system finally gets running full board (and it will be a while before that happens since I need to lose a lot of weight--bariatric gastric bypass surgery is 'acoming soon ;) --and can't do a lot of the things I used to be able to accomplish) you'll definitely know it even...

Hi, Tom! Indeed has been a while since we last chatted, but I am really happy to see the resounding success that SVS has become. Actually, I was being a bit feticious with my post, and since I just turned 60...why...I thought I owed it to myself, so please indulge me! :) Meantime, I'll...

Good grief! So now I am really wondering just how "bad" are the drivers used on my 16-46 octet and twin B12-Plus/4 subs by comparison!... :frowning: -THTS "...hi, my name is Frank...and am an SVS bassaholic..."

...of course, such mundane 'lil problems will instantly disappear (well, almost) when multiple drivers are used...like I do with my SVS 16-46 octet and B12-Plus/4s... :D Nice seeing your always edifying words again, Mark! :) -THTS "...hi, my name is Frank...and am an SVS bassaholic..."

Umm...my SVS B12-Plus/4 twins experienced no problems handling the DTS soundtrack of WOTW whatsoever. However, the house might have sustained structural damage while receiving heavy doses of high amplitude, low bass signals produced by these babies instead!!... :D -THTS

I would also recommend you use 12 ga. on all speakers, regardless where they're positioned... -THTS

"Can I just say that War of the Worlds was pretty scary with this thing?" John...you ought to hear this soundtrack handled by twin SVS B12-Plus/4 subs: truly scary!... :D -THTS "...hi, my name is Frank...and am an SVS bassaholic..."

Making a lot of noise doesn't necessarily equate to producing accurate low end bass with ample output, that's why me also thinks the SVS sub would be a far better choice. My $0.02... -THTS "hi, my name is Frank...and am an SVS bass-aholic..."

Well, so far everything seems to indicate my new deck is defective right out of the box, so I'll be contacting the vendor and JVC about it. First I'll try a new cable that's on its way here (HDMI-to-DVI sans adapters) and see what happens, though. Will also try the low tech analog output to...

John, Was afraid of that! Perhaps if I change the DVI/HDMI adaptor to a DVI/HDMI cable might change things. It sure is a bummer. :frowning: Thanks for the help... :) -THTS

I just received one of these decks; bought it new. I connected it to a 40" Sony XBR CRT-based display (TV) via HDCP-compliant DVI-D interfacing (used a HDMI-to-DVI adapter), and used the 5U's optical digital sound output which in turn is connected to a high-end Pioneer Elite receiver. After...

"I am wondering why you would not be able to fill a 12 foot screen with the new projector? With my Sony vp-11ht (700 lumins) I filled a wall that was 16 feet with decent results (yes, on paint, it was not a screen)." ...because of what Greg Rogers, who did a magnificent test/review of this...

The movie studios would save themselves a lot of headaches and hassles were they to engage the services of Mrs. Robert Harris and Joe Capporicio to do the job right (meaning restoration, coloration, etc., as well as soundtrack work for all of these film classics) the first time around...if...

Sony's new "RUBY" VPL-VW100, 1080p FP will most likely be our next "reference" display device...though not been able to fully fill a 12 foot wide screen (2:35:1 scope aspect ratio) like we been able with our current FP is going to be hard to take (but a higher gain screen material could very...

Well, I hope Fox call us all who bought their latest Oklahoma! 50th Anniversary DVD set and do the right thing...'cus the Todd-AO version is an absolute visual abomination. After viewing the gorgeous CinemaScope version...I had to clean my glasses over and over thinking it was them which made...

"Anyways, I have about 1200-1500 to spend and I have nothing but a TV. What would be a good complete 5.1 system, including receiver." Other than the receiver (too many to chose from)...I would look at SVS' new 5.1/7.1 surround sound offerings (check their Web site under "NEWS"). At their...
