Thanks, yes, I'm calibrating the LFE channel - my toshiba DVD player doesn't play CD's burned off a writer and i don't have a CD player (I use my DVD player for that)

I have the Avia Dvd and I can't find an LFE test tone that lasts more than 5 seconds - I looked everywhere on the disk and all find is a quick LFE test tone for channel ID and the test tone s that alternate the other channels w/the LFE. Those LFE test tones don't last long enough for me to get...

Than you greg:emoji_thumbsup:

yeah . . . BTTT:)

cool, more stuff to check out:emoji_thumbsup:

is anyone familiar w/this book: Principles of Digital Audio by Ken C. Pohlmann I saw the info on it in Amazon, but I'm not up for reading a college engineering type textbook w/all the math woorlked out, blah, blah, those days are behind me :)

you crazy, crazy, guys!!! - this will keep me and the SVS (16-46PC w/new and improved driver) busy for a long time. :D I'll check out some of the solo organ works, but by far, I like the stuff as in Saens Symphony No. 3 "Organ" in C minor Thanks for the info, and send more if you come up...

Bob, How do you like the 898. I'm very pleased w/mine, but there's so many features/adjustments that it takes awhile to learn all the capabilities of the unit. Have you messed around with teaching the Onkyo remote commands from otehr remotes? I follwed the instructions, but it didn't work...

I'm new to classical music and I really like the sound of organs on my SVS. I guess I'm looking for CD's of symphonic music accompanied w/organs. An excellent ex of this is Saint Saens Symphony No. 3 "Organ" in C minor w/Eugene Ormandy and Michael Murray (Telarc, cat# 80051). I'm not crazy...

THANKYOU FOR THE INFO!

Hello, Can somone please explain to me what PCM is . . . I mean, I know that it stands for Pulse Code Modulation, but I don't know how PCM figures in my HT system. Is PCM the input source signal used for playing CD's (I use a Toshiba SD2300 DVD player to play CD's). Any links explaining this...

okey dokey, now i can rest my HT obsessive/compulsive mind ;)

Sorry for beating a dead horse here, but I'm trying to make sure I've used the proper rcvr adjustment features to calibrate the SPL level of my sub (using Avia for 85dB. My onkyo 898 has a Speaker Level Calibration AND an Audio Adjust sub-menu that reads: Speaker Level Calibration: a. Left...

Hey Sonnie, let us know when you upgrade you excellent BFD user's manual . . . you might also want to include a special section on EQ'ing the new SVS wall hanging signs (http://www.hometheaterforum.com/htfo...threadid=56775);)

Don't forget to factor in the Fletcher-Munson human hearing perception curves when deriving your house curve. Also, you MUST add the sq footage of the rooms that your HT listening room opens up to when trying to decide if you need one or two SVS wall hangings, that being the case, you might be...

Mine is shipping the 18th as well, did you notice that the UPS e-mail said that "signature is required'? I hope not as no one will be home to sign for it:frowning:

Chris, what is the serial number on your SVS sign, if it was shipped before Dec 19th, then you qualify for the the improved logo lettering version at a reduced price - can you post the response curve on this beast?:D

Bob, Are the newer PS2 games Dolby 5.1? Also, I have an ONKYO 898, and I'm not sure how I would hook this up to my HT to get the 5.1 effect - can you or someone else elaborate on how to hook this up to get the 5 channel sound? Thanks, Gomez

Thanks, I'll re-check the manual.

wait a min . . checked napster and they are down for the next few weeks - can you recoomend a site that might have these soundtracks?

shamefull to admit, I've never used napster . . . so if I go there I can download the mp3 files (for a price, of course) and burn them onto a CD, right?

Hi Colin, Ryan, Glad to hear my setup is not unusual . . yes, I'm using the subwoofer 'trim' adjustment on my rcvr (not the LFE), which ranges +/- 15db as well as the vol/gain dial on the 16-46PC to get 85dB from the sub. It just suprises me that I have to dial these settings relativiely low...

Hi, I have calibrated all my spkr channels to 85dB (includes correction factor) off my Onkyo 898 rcvr using the Avia calibration disk and all spkrs set to SMALL. My room is 12x19x8. Now, . . I believe that Avia (and others in this forum) suggest that the rcvr's LFE channel level be set...

Hi . . .I'm looking to purchase the music soundtracks to all three MOH games (MOH, MOH Underground, and the new Allied Assualt) - is there a link where I can order these. EB has an offer where if you order the PS2 version of the game you get the sound track free, unfortunately, I'm not looking...

just got Lord of the Rings, great soundtrack!

I got mine for $120 at ebay (brandnew and unopened) http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI...tem=1327286126

Hi Bruce, when taking the readings i was careful to eliminate all ambient noise (I even had to turn of my heating system). To verify, throughout my readings I would check for ambient noise by setting my SPL to it's lowest setting (60) and checking for noise - none registered on the meter...

Wayne/Brucek, Thank you for the response and pointing me in the right direction. The sub is in the front left corner opposite to the opening to the kitchen, ie, it's fully corner-loaded for max effect. I should probablty take down the readings in my website - those reading were taken with the...

Wayne, these Eq threads just never end do they huhh? :) . . . . as you know, I have an SVS 16-46PC sub, since this subwoofer goes strong down to 16Hz, what type of house curve would you recommend for me to start with? I know this varies from room to room, personal pref's, actaul sub in use...

I purchased the RM7600 system last November (w/the Polk 650 sub included)and added an SVS16-46PC sub in Dec, I'm driving the Polks with the Onkyo 898 (110 wtts/ channel) and they quite good, also, they don't take up much space - they have a big speaker system sound and they don't take up much...
