    NHT Speakers

    I have a 6.1 system of NHT 2.5i as mains, four 1.5 for surrounds, and an SVS 25-31PC+. It is being driven by an Outlaw 950 and 770. At first I was using a Denon 3802. When I added the 770 to the Denon (while waiting for the 950) the extra amplification really helped. Clarity and smoothness...

    Just Received NEW Panasonic Catalogs with Specs: Any Questions?

    Does anyone know whether the CP-72 has 5.1 audio out connections? JVB shows a photo of the back with only 2.1 audio outs. JVB However, Crutchfield shows it with 5.1 audio outs. I'm interested in using it for DVD-Audio with an Outlaw 950, so 5.1 outs are essential. Thanks,

    NHT 2.5i and which Subwoofer?

    I'm using an SVS 25-31PC Plus with NHT 2.5i mains, four 1.5 surrounds, and an AC1 center. Music base sounds great to me.

    Keep the Outlaw 950 or go "backwards" to a new receiver as a pre-amp?

    I don't know if this is much help, but the 3802 and 3803 were mentioned, so all add my 2 cents. I have been running a 3802 as a pre to an Outlaw 770. Recently, a 950 arrived to replace the 3802 (which moved to the bedroom). After listening to the 950 for a while, I moved the 3802 back for...

    3802 owners with external amps....

    I was running a 3802 and decided to upgrade to an Outlaw 950 and 770 amp. The amp arrived several months earlier than the 950. So I used the 3802 as a pre. It made a big difference. Notes were much clearer and cleaner.

    SVS PC+ calibration

    The copy of Avia I have only has 5.1. However, Sound & Vision Home Theater Tune-up by Ovation has 6.1 where the back channel is treated as one speaker. So, you would have to balance the two back speakers with the amp signals. Then you could use the 6.1 Dolby Digital and DTS signals in the S&V...

    Where is my SVS?

    Got my 25-31 PC+ on Thursday. I've got a large odd-shaped room with openings to the kitchen and dinning room. An ancient Velodyne F-1000-B coudn't handle it. With the speakers set at 75db, the Velo could only get to about 65db. No problem with this SVS. I've got the Outlaw 950 set with the sub...

    NHT M6 Evolution

    I purchased an NHT AudioCenter2 recently from onecall.com and decided that it overwhelmed my 2.5i mains. I've gone back to using the AudioCenter1. So, if you want an AC2 drop me a private message or an email.

    Darn. I've been watching that page since Sunday night, but missed the early window.

    Which is brighter, 3802 or 950?

    Before the Denon 3802 I had a Pioneer 26TX (that died). The 26TX seemed less bright than the 3802 with the same room, same speakers, and a variety of volumes.

    Which is brighter, 3802 or 950?

    I just added an Outlaw 770 amp and use a Denon 3802 as a pre. The amp made a difference in clarity, but I think I'd like a warmer sound. I'm on the list for a 950, but I'm concerned about whether the 950 might be even brighter than the 3802? Can anyone tell me how the 950 and 3802 compare in...

    3802 Remote Control - battery life

    I got a 3802 on Feb. 20 of this year. The original batteries are still good. If yours are giving out quickly, try RAYOVAC Rechargeable Alkaline batteries. I've used these in other remotes, Nikon cameras, flashlights, etc. They are excellent. There are a few things they don't work with, such as...

    Power filter for Outlaw 770?

    I just ordered an Outlaw 770 to use with a Denon 3802 while I wait for my name to come up on the 950 list. I see that the 770 is rated at 1800 watts. Currently, my entire system* is running off of a Monster PowerCenter HTS2000 that has a maximum rating of 1875 watts. So, I'm looking for...

    Tosh SD9200 making noise. Should I even bother taking it in?

    That is too bad that the 9200 is so problematic. I bought a 9100 when it first came out (I think it was Toshiba's first progressive player). Anyway, it is going strong. No problems (knock on wood). :-) I was considering upgrading to a 9200, but I guess I wont be doing that.

    Probs with My Pioneer VSX Receiver

    From previous posts it sounds like resoldering certain connections might fix it. Or, a redesigned board needs to be used. You might tell them that this problem is turning the Pioneer name into mud on the internet. They really need to do a free recall on the faulty receivers. This is not the...
