I own the M5400-PM. I have observed that if all my equipment (attached to the M5400-PM) is turned off, the output voltage will drop to 114-115V. When I turn on the equipment...the output voltage will display 123V-125V. The input voltage stays steady at 125 volts. What is happening here? Is this...

With the improved drivers (12.3) in the PB12-Plus/2...I am wondering if there is a significant improvement in quality when stepping up to the PB12-Ultra/2. Prior to the 12.3 upgrade....the consensus was the Ultra gave a small, but noticeable improvement.....now I am wondering if the gap has...

bump

I just helped my Brother-in-law hook up his 3rd SVS 25-31PC+. The first two were purchased about 3 years ago. The last one was purchased about 3 weeks ago. All subs positioned together. The interesting thing is that we had to run the phase 180 degrees out with the new sub. I think the new sub...

Does Brick Wall have any protection for Cable TV, Sat, and Phone line connections on any of their surge protectors? If not...how do I get the same level of protection for these components? Can't voltage spikes be transmitted along these pathways and cause damage to all interconnected...

If you are using the Axiom's in the back...why not go with the Axioms up front?

steve nn, Are you going to wait for Ed's review...or have you already pulled the trigger? You have lived with the Ultra...would be nice to hear your take on the Maestro!!!

Craig, Great review...would not have thought a single 15" could outgun (4) 12" drivers with 5X the power (Crown K2). The gunfights were quite similar to the effect we experienced in the 1812 Overture. Each shot could be felt as a hit in the chest. As good as the SVS B4+ was, the Maestro took...

Too expensive!

and that is exactly the point!!!!!!!

I can see your point...I'll keep my fingers crossed that everything continues to work perfectly. :)

No...they are not discontinued. They stopped selling them "mail order" because they were having problems with UPS damaging speakers. They still sell them through there "brick and mortar" stores. There is not a problem with parts availability....they have the parts...they just won't sell them to...

Subject: Warning To CSW customers!!!!! Cambridge Sound Works does not supply parts for the speakers they sell! My Letter to CSW customer service: I would like to start out by saying that my T500 speakers are performing flawlessly...no problems. This is a policy question that I have...

ooops..I typed too fast! I like the "one" box approach. If I buy just one PC-Ultra now, I may not get a second one down the road...probably should just pull the trigger on the PB12-Ultra/2. Did it exceed your expectations? The PB12-Ultra/2 may actually have more output/headroom from 25hz and...

You went with the PB12-Ultra/2over the PC-Ultra? I was thinking along those lines myself...but for $300.00 more you could get (2) PC-Ultras and have native tuning down to 20hz. I keep hanging up on this...maybe not a big deal. I sold my PB12-Plus/2 to my Brother-in Law.The upgrade I was refering...

Hi Guys, Sorry for being incognito for sooooo long...I am not handling the Airline situation well and my recent "forced" move to Atlanta...Think DELTA. But I am back and thought the Bose post would be a fun read. I do apologize for not joining in on the discourse! I used to be part of...

Did I actually write that??? Never thought those words would be spoken....the Audio God must be benevolent! It all started when my "Brother-in-law" called me and informed me that a class action lawsuit was settled from eons past (don't ask) and the cash was falling like manna from heaven. He...

I agree...this is why alot of people have jumped over to the "Spot." So the guy is fishing around...if it bothers you don't take the time to respond. "Brian Bunge: The problem I have with DIY subs is this... I dont know anything about it. So I am trying to learn." If you don't understand...

Do any 4802 owners notice that when playing DTS material...the output is down about 5dB when compared to Dolby Digital. Noticed this with several DVD's that have both formats...DTS always quieter?

chris_huniganl, I think the speakers look pretty cool! Buy them (after checking the return policy) and tell us what you think!

Edward J M, Have you been monitoring the "subwoofer shootout" over at the spot... HSU MKII vs PB2-Plus vs Denali? Would have liked to hear your take on it! Appears the Denali edged out the PB2-Plus slightly for overal SPl's. The PB2-plus exceeded the performance of the dual VTF-3's in SPL...

Yes, I have the Pioneer 45A and run it through an Outlaw ICBM. I have noticed that I still get an indication from the player that there should be info on the center channel from the 3/2.1 display. Maybe the machine is recognizing the existence of the bit stream/channel...but the sound engineer...

Are you refereing to the 6ch analog out on the 45A for DVD-A and SACD? I have a few DVD-A's and SACD's that do not use the center channel...even though the player says 3/2.1 in the display.

I second ED's recommendation....I wish I had some spare cash!

Sounds like you may have blown some Caps(capacitors) inside the Sub amp.

UnderWorld was the loudest/hottest cut DVD's I have ever played...louder than the 1st theatrical cut of LOTR. There was lots of 30-50hz stuff throughout...and it was loud...the grenade down the elevator shaft was interesting. I did not consider it "bloated". If music and other DVD's sound ok...I...

Shane...go hear for an in-depth discussion on calibration with an SPL meter: SPL Cal

you can't tell the difference...save your money and go with 12ga. Carol cable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tony...that was really funny...I laughed out loud! The low freq. "minus" the LFE is sent to the mains...and the Subwoofer receives the "Low freq of channels set to large" PLUS the LFE. The LFE is stripped from the mains when the subwoofer is set to "on" in the A/V menu (even when mains are...

I don't have a problem with Bose.... The animosity towards Bose is exacerbated by the "pompous" and myopic approach the sales staff at "all" Bose stores employ in pushing the "product."
