Thanks for the replies. The good news is, as I continued to search around regarding this problem, I discovered the 2 button combination to reset the receiver, which I tried, which worked like a charm! All seems to be back to normal, and you're right, this is a situation that has been covered...

A power surge or lightning spike or something has damaged my Pioneer VSX-1014TX, so all you see on the display is the MCACC flashing. What I'm struggling with is, do I spend the money to have this repaired (no longer under warranty) or replace it with a newer model? I was more than happy with...

I'm using the Atlas 15 in an Adire Alignment ported enclosure, 214l, and couldn't be happier. Terrific performance!

Well, I'm going to try and sell these for him, and if they sell, I think he'll go for two of the Atlas 15's using his storage space as the enclosure.

Another vote for BlueJeans. A friend of mine just bought a 25' component cable from them, and it's a thing of beauty! I was very impressed with their quality for the price.

"If you've thrown some

That's what I was afraid of. What would be the best market for these? Audiogon, ebay. etc.? Any idea what he could use in the space I described? Would 2 Atlas 15's do a good job?

If you think it would only take me 5 minutes to model, you greatly overestimate my abilities!;) Seriously, I'm quite a novice. I downloaded WinISD Pro Alpha, and had trouble figuring it out. Kept getting an error when trying to save the parameters from my driver.

I'll take it! Unless you mean $200.00 plus shipping! BTW, I just got the 1014, and love it!

Paul, Are you familiar with Adire's plans? This sub is built exactly according to those plans, the only difference being the use of the Atlas instead of the Tempest. To what "worst case scenario" are you referring?

A friend has 4 JBL 2206 professional drivers, and wants to use them to build a sub for his FP theater. Is there any scenario where he can put these to good use, or is there no way these will go low enough? He has a wedge-shaped storage space to one side of his screen area that measures 116" deep...

Paul, My sub is built according to Adire's plans for the Tempest based Adire Alignment vented enclosure, which does call for two FP3 port kits. I've detected no port noise at all, and it goes very low. I'll be doing some measurements soon, and will post them when I do.

No problem, Paul. I'll email you this evening. Randy

Jon, Took your tip, and it worked like a charm!

Excellent! I'll give this a try. Thanks for the help.

Thanks Thomas!

Thanks Thomas. I do have a high speed connection (Cable). Is there a good site you could point me to where I could download some test tones? It sounds like that might be the easiest. Thanks for your help.

Thanks Thomas, but you have seriously overestimated my technical knowledge!:b First, my computer and my receiver are in separate parts of the house. And I don't know how to loop from my soundcard's output to its input. Just getting to the back of my computer is not an easy task! If there's not...

I downloaded the NCH tone generator. Can someone tell me exactly what steps I take to burn test tones onto a cd using my computer's cd burner? I want to do some measurements on my new sub.

My Atlas 15 seems to work great in the Adire Alignment enclosure. From what I could glean before I made the switch to the Atlas, you should have no problems using your existing plans and simply substituting the Atlas for the Tempest, including using the port kits from Adire.

Well, it only took a couple years, but my AA ported sub is finally done! I had the box built and ready to drop in a Tempest, but when the time came to order, the Tempests were on backorder. I then read about the Atlas 15 from Ascendant Audio, and went with it. The Atlas dropped into the hole I...

Your assumption is correct! This is a great receiver, and the automatic setup did wonders for my sound! Enjoy!

The unit is up and running in its new home!

Thanks Robert, but it appears I'm going in the same direction as you. Ordered the Atlas 15 today from Chad!

Ordered Amp and Port Kits from Kyle today, but the Tempest is on backorder until possibly mid-Feb. Will wait if necessary, but would like one now if possible. Enclosure is built and ready to go. Taken care of. Thanks.

Ronnie, I have a Campbell Hausfeld HVLP sprayer, and I love it. I'm not sure of the model- I'll try to check it. I have used it to paint some built in bookcases I built, and it did a great job. Haven't used it for stain, but it came with different needles for stain application.
