I have a little confusion regarding AVIA's subwoofer setup. My subwoofer is on the way and I currently run my home theater without a subwoofer. Right now I run my main speakers as "large" and my center and surrounds as "small" with a crossover of 80Hz and the subwoofer output set to "none."...

But I would like to know of the differences between the two versions before I buy.

For the Metallica S&M concert, there are two versions available on Amazon.com. One is called "Metallica - S & M with the San Fransisco Symphony (1999)" and the other is called "S&M Smartpack (2004)." What is the difference between these two? I have provided the links below: 1999 version...

The audio side of my home theater consists of the following: A/V Receiver: Harman Kardon AVR 8500 (named AVR 8000 in the US) Center: Klipsch RC-7 (98 dB sensitivity) Mains: Klipsch RF-7 (102 dB sensitivity) Surrounds: Klipsch RS-7 (98 dB sensitivity) Subwoofer: None (but working on it)...

Is it also closely surrounded by sofas like in my pic?

I think you might need to buy a separate subwoofer amplifier.

I am planning on getting either the SVS PB13-Ultra or the JL Audio Fathom f113. One option for me is the place the subwoofer where the plant is (see the following two pics). Or I can place the subwoofer where the bookshelf is. My question is, if I choose the place the...

Okay, I "blasted" some music today (2-channel music CDs) at very high volume for about 10 mins and now the buzzing has absolutely disappeared! Now I cannot hear any buzzing even if I place my ear right in the tweeter! Even when turning on the plasma TV causes absolutely no buzzing. How is...

My speakers have started buzzing quite loudly. Before, you could only hear the buzz if you put your ear right next to the speaker but now it can be heard from the seating position (and I haven't changed anything). I've noticed that when I turn on my A/V receiver, the buzz is quite faint/quiet...

Okay, I went ahead and ordered the Dolby Digital 5.1 version from Amazon since I couldn't find a DTS version that could be shipped to Dubai and I really wanted to see this movie again. I hope the Dolby Digital 5.1 track is not that bad compared to the DTS track!

Thanks! But how will I know if this is the corrected DTS version? Darn it, I just noticed that site doesn't ship outside the US.

Why is it that all the sites I go to, none of them have the DTS version of "Jurassic Park"? Amazon only has the Dolby Digital 5.1 version in stock and the same is true for the other sites. Why is this? Did they stop producing the DTS version? Secondly, should I just get the Dolby Digital 5.1...

I am using an older top-of-the-line Harman Kardon receiver with Klipsch speakers and have no complaints at all! I would recommend Harman Kardon.

One more question! If I get a Blu-ray player, I'll have to hook up the audio via analog outputs since my A/V receiver doesn't support HDMI. Will there be any difference in the performance of standard Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS tracks via analog ouputs and via optical/coaxial outputs?

When will A/V receivers and home theater processors be able to decode Blu-ray audio formats? Will the audio stream be able to be transfered via optical or coaxial cables or only via HDMI? For Blu-ray players today, is there any difference in sound quality/loudness between sending the audio...

I would love to read your take on it.

Could someone recommend me some fairly new horror movies?

Who here has seen the movie? Any good? How does it compare to the first one?

I understand Blu-ray offers better audio through Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, and DTS-HD Master Audio. My question is, does my A/V receiver need to be able to decode these new formats for me to take advantage just like regular DTS and Dolby Digital 5.1? Do...

Thanks for the replies. What about its audio CD performance? Comparable to a good DVD player?

How is the PlayStation 3's DVD peformance?

Even though one costs half as much as the other, what are your comments/opinions regarding how you think these two subwoofers will compare?

The room is sealed off expect for a small passage way on one of the walls which leads to the bathroom. Other than that, it's completely sealed off.

I have the Klipsch Reference Series 7 speakers (RF-7, RC-7, and RS-7) hooked up to a Harman Kardon AVR 8500 A/V receiver. My room is about 11 x 14. My budget is sort of low for a subwoofer for now so I was looking at the SVS PB10-NSD. Any opinions/comments on the subwoofer? Would it blend in...

Which exact models from Velodyne should I look at?

Sunfire, Velodyne, SVS (but only three models that I mentioned above), Klipsch. There are more but I would like to stick to these.

What do you guys think of the Klipsch RSW-12? How does it compare to the SVS PB12-Plus?

BTW, HSU does not ship to Dubai.

I live in Dubai, and SVS only exports the PB10-ISD, PB12-Plus, and the PB12-Plus/2 I think.

What are some good subwoofers that are under $1,000?
