Based on the user response in the forum, I purchased a BFD several months ago and experimented with equalizing twin SVS 20-39PC+'s (e.g., lots of trial and error). I have since upgraded the PC+'s to one B4+ and am ready to start the process all over again. Final position of the sub in the room...
Taking my cue from the legions of other HTF members desiring that perfect subwoofer response curve, I endeavoured to first assess the damage being caused by my room and also determine what effect tuning my SVS 20-39PC+ to 16hz would have. Both subs are located in the same corner of a 21x29 room...
Normally, I select Avia's left front/subwoofer level to calibrate my subs, then run the left front/LFE frequency sweep to gauge the effectiveness of positions/settings. Last night (while experimenting with new subwoofer locations), I noticed that the sub level in the left front/subwoofer test...
I understand that the Sunfire TGIII is not an THX Ultra2 pre-pro, but does it provide capability for creating a 7.1 mix off of a 5.1 DVD (similar to the THX Ultra2 Cinema mode or the Cirrus Extra Surroud on other pre-preos)? Thanks in advance, Brian
I have a Reference 7520, Series II hooked up to an unswitched outlet on my HT power center. The amp is connected to my receiver/pre-pro by a 12V trigger. Can anyone tell me if the amp is still drawing power in its "muted" state? According to the manual, the draw at idle is 100+W, but it's not...
I would like to augment my HT with an one of the SVS PC-Plus' (probably the 25-39). I currently have a Polk PSW650 subwoofer (dual 10" drivers; good to about 30 hz, but lacks low-end) and since budget constraints would prevent me from buying 2 SVS', I was wondering if the SVS and the Polk would...
After reading horror stories about "bowing" resulting from placing heavy center channel speakers on top of Mits projection TV's, I mounted my Polk Csi40 above the TV on a Vantage Point PTW20-B angled TV wall mount purchased from Best Buy. Although I am with happy with the placement and the...
Not enough time to get into details, but if you had a choice between the DA5ES or the 3802 for the same price, which would you choose and why? I have a standard HT, 5.1 with upgrade path to 6.1 or 7.1. Thanks in advance, Brian
Would anyone with a Denon 3802 mind commenting on its 7.1 performance in movies (specifically, what it does with a DD-EX signal)? I know for 7.1 it's a choice between DTS-ES or their "Widescreen" mode, but I wondered if Widescreen could informally decode Dolby Digital-EX. Thanks in advance...
