    connection of BFD?

    To avoid confusion I think it's more precise to say RCA to mono 1/4".

    I absolutely must replace some fans ASAP, any help?

    Rory, I didn't know that about Papst ... not surprising as I don't use them every day. I have 6 of their 80mm 220V fans in my system ... 4 in my equipment rack and 2 in my projector coffee table / hush box. My most recent purchase was only 6 months ago ... and they are identical to the...

    Where to buy HT gear in Australia?

    Brad, Got any friends travelling overseas ? Ask someone to pick it up for you in Singapore. It's the cheapest place to buy stuff ... and no 110 / 240V problems.

    Anyone using Thiel's

    The 3.6s have been around for over ten years now. The 2.4s are brand new with all the latest driver developments. I have heard the 3.6s a number of times over the years, but have not yet heard the 2.4s. Considering the ten years of development and the rave reviews I would certainly think the...

    Denon might agree that separates are the answer in 2004

    Peter, If your guess of 10k is for the audio processor / video processor and amp I think you're a bit light. My guess is 12k to 15k.

    BFD and Passive sub

    David, The idea behind the method outlined is to ensure that the BFD receives a strong enough signal to avoid problems with low level A/D conversion. Like you I have a passive sub and amp with no volume control. It hasn't been a problem for me. At reference level with high level LFE...

    Denon might agree that separates are the answer in 2004

    Well ... yes ... sort of. Aren't the Denon separates their "cost no object" statement pieces that no one can really afford ??

    Problem setting BFD

    Greg, I had exactly the same problem when setting up my BFD. What little knowledge I have on the subject leads me to believe that we are simply suffering from a time related problem. My test disc is a series of sine waves, each five seconds long. When I'm at the frequency with the...

    For what it's worth this configuration sounds best to me with my setup - Mains - Thiel CS2.2 - 80Hz Centre - Thiel SCS2 - 120Hz Sides - Thiel SCS2 + Shiva Sonosubs - Large Rears - Energy Take 2 - 120Hz LFE Subs - Shiva Sonosub x 2 - 80Hz However this is on a lowly DC-1 V4. But I'm happy. :D

    Lexicon MC-12 Owners...

    Germain, I've also read some of your posts over at AVS, so I have a pretty good idea of where you're at with the system building. As I'm sure you have already found, there is only one Lex dealer here in Singapore and they do not tend to discount much. Even used units which have been traded on...

    Is the Behringer FB discontinued?

    Glenn, Thanks for the correction. Why then were people complaining about the input sensitivity, or is it my memory playing tricks !!

    Is the Behringer FB discontinued?

    I picked up an 1124 last Saturday so they are definitely shipping. IIRC a number of people complained about the input sensitivity on the 1100 being setup for professional use. Well, the good news is that the 1124 has an input sensitivity switch on the back for selection of either +4dBu or -10dBV...

    Flexy Rack

    David, To get over the top of a RPTV I think you would need to effectively have a full flexy with three or four legs on either side of the TV and then very long shelves over the top. IMHO two legs on either side of a RPTV for that height will not be stable.

    Lazy man gets mega changer

    Yes, DTS CDs don't have PCM. The DTS CD fools the player into thinking it is a normal CD. Through the digital out you get DTS which needs a decoder. Through the analog out it sounds like white noise. Peter M
