    Spider-Man 2.5 (yes, it's already planned!) (merged)

    It should be Spiderman 2 + 5. 5 stands for the xtra $5 they are going to charge for the version which only contains a worthless 5 extra minutes which is not even worth 5 minutes of my time. However, it may contain a 5 minute trailer of Spiderman 3 (or should that be 3.5)? This is almost as...

    Wireless ! Front Projector

    I thought the current wireless technology - even with G - is not suitable for hi def video media yet like DVD - composite video at best is poor.

    X1 video issue

    Hi Derek SOunds like heat from front exhaust port. Do you have it set on a table - if so, just use simple cardboard as a "screen" from the lens.

    Sony VPL-VW10HT bulb life

    Hi Donald My bulb got too dim by 1500+ hrs to watch Daredevil (economy mode all the way) so it is just the bulb nearing the end of its life span - the 2000 hrs as quoted by Sony is definitely in the YMMV category. Anyway I had bought a spare bulb and the difference in brightness was like day...

    M&K 5000 vs. SVS PB- 2 Subwoofer Help

    John I own a AT 450 5.1 system. I have matched it with twin SVS Ultra subs - have moved the AT 450 sub to another room. In a nutshell, the bass respone transition is seamless - makes the AT sub sound like a boombox but the comparison is probably unfair. My system is HT dedicated and the SVS...

    Any Atlantic Tech owners upgrade your sub?

    Added a pair of CS Ultra SVS SW about 7 months ago to 450 THX 5.1 AT system. Now using the AT SW for my stereo. In a nutshell - a "whole new" sound to my HT system. I never heard bass

    SVS S1000 Hum

    Todd I have the same problem with my setup Crown K1- BB - dual CSUltras Loud hum with BB in the circuit which disappears on removing it from the circuit. I emailed SVS about it and they r sending me a new BB to try out - something about "wiring of the transformer" Will let u know if the new...

    How's this frequency response? Should I get an EQ for my sub?

    Sorry this is a little off the thread but 1. How do u get such a graph? 2. Is it better to do SPL levels with the other speakers "off"? I'm still in the process of doing initial tweaks of my subs using a Rane PE 17 EQ. Thanks and happy Labour Day to all my US colleagues.

    SVS and the TPM pod race... :(

    Anyone put on DTS version of "The Haunting" - bedroom scene which starts with the candle blowing out. Just got my twin CS-Ultras fed by a Crown K1 amp - still in early fine tuning stages using the Rane EQ. I felt a wave of air rustle my hair and scared the living crap out of me - followed by...

    Which Plinius integrated amp?

    Bruce I own a 8150 - past 2 yrs. I have asked the Plinius people in NZ (actual manufacturer/designers) about future upgrade to the 8200 - they said it would be better to add the new power amp 8200P and use the 8150 as pre amp - which is saying a lot for the 8150. Main gains from going to 8200...

    Paradigm vs Atlantic Technology Please Give Me Your Options

    I have owned the AT 450 system (single SW) the last 4 years. Absolutely fantastic for HT - no need for EQ for bright soundtracks which makes them less than ideal for music only but my system is used 99% for HT so not a caveat for me. The only upgrade pending is waiting for my dual SVS Ultras to...

    Anthony Gallo speakers anyone?

    Hi Mo I have a 5.1 Gallo setup with 5 Nucleus Micros and MPS 150 powered sub running off a Sony 555ES receiver - aboit 100w/channel x5. Speakers all set to SMALL with frequency rolloffs at 100 Hz - Gallo recommends sub set at 120Hz for a smooth transition with the micros. Room is approx...
