    Need help, replacing a dying Marantz SR6200

    Thanks for the reply, although i don't want to spend that much as this is not a plan upgrade but an replacement, i would prefer to stay away from refurb/recon, the main reason is im shipping it guatemala, and i want to avoid an rma or a return as it will be very costly. The other route is just...

    Do anyone own or have audition Sony SA-WX900?

    I know etronics isnt the best place as an authorize dealer of any brand, but they do have them in stock. Sony SA-WX900 1000 Watt Active Subwoofer $529 Its very close to the price of the starting SVSs, but maybe somebody already bought one and can share their thoughts on it.

    Any details available about the new JBL Studio line due this Fall?

    I disagree with your opinion, the studio series offer a lot for the money, it was very good for entry level. The S38,S36 and S26 were really good bookshelfs. I think everything need to be renewed, and this was just the time for JBL to release new speaekers.

    Pioneer VSXD-912K vs. VSXD-914K

    I have one 912K and for the money is a great reciever, but its a very light reciever, compare to my marantz, I hope it can perform as well as my 912.

    Help me spend $250 on a Subwoofer

    I have the sony SA-WX700, and IMO is the best sub under $200. It doesnt have the power and capabilities of my SVS in my other setup, but I felt the bass was pretty flat and accurate, but thats my personal opinion, try to go and audition it, and decide if it is right for you.

    Anyone using JBL N-Center II?

    The old JBL northbrige series is a very good entry level performance speaker. I have JBL NSP1, that comes with the N center, and for me it does the job pretty well, the only problem is that I had two put it 6'' above the screen because of bad sheilding, but others have them in top of the TV with...

    New receiver recommendations anyone?

    I think you are in the right track, auditioning should be your priority, and buy what you like and what is inside your budget. I have auditioned the marantz SR9300, and I was pretty impressed with the performance, but it cost to much for me. But its still a great reciever. The yammy 3300 is a...

    Center channel speaker recommendations

    Mark, Im havent audition the paradigm 370, but there are a lot of paradigm guys here that I think they will express their opinion. The SVS PB2+ is an incredible sub, its performance is unbelievable. If you are constructing your setup around the center and the sub, you might also want to...

    Adire Rava or SVS 25-31 PCI

    my vote goes to SVS 25-31PCi, I own one, and I have them pair to S26, and the sub blends pretty nice with them, you will really enjoy the capabilities of this sub. Great sub for the money. Good luck.

    Newbie looking for rock/HT speakers

    Tom, I think if your priority is music, with $2000 you can get a good pair of floorstanding speakers, like, Rockets RS750 $1499 Axiom M80ti $1100 Klipsch RF7 $1460 But as you said, I think you want a 5.1 setup (or 6.1 or 7.1), and inside you budget you have a lot of options, like...

    Good System?

    Rich_Mex It will depend on your needs and likings. I think four RF7 are an overkill, but it depends on your needs. 1) What are your room dimension? 2) What are you preferences (music/movies/games)? 3) What is your budget? 4) Do you have a sub? are you considering one? With the price you...

    Equipment for a 5.1 Setup – Input Please

    I cant tell muych about Harman Kardon speakers, because I have never audtion one. By specs they seem like JBLs Northbrige N26, which was a very good speaker for the money, but price wise was cheaper than the S26 or S38. I also was checking the harman website, and the HKB6 they are offering at...

    Equipment for a 5.1 Setup – Input Please

    Im my opinion the Sony SA-WX700 exceeds the perfomance of the SA-WM500, it has more output and a better amp. I think is more cable of reaching lower with more dBs. But the best thing is to audition and decide for yourself if the extra $$$ are worth for you needs. Well I think the best route...

    Equipment for a 5.1 Setup – Input Please

    I forgot some stuff, SUBWOOFER, Although the Sony SA-WM500 is a great sub for the money, there are other options you migh look that are inside your price range, like, Sony SA-EX700 $209 (it was 198 a couple of days ago) DAYTON 10" 100 WATT POWERED SUBWOOFER $125 I have the sony...

    Speaker upgrade???? JBL S310,312,nd310

    I still think that if you are going to shell out $420, you are close to a good sub, like an HSU VTF2 or a Velodyne CHT-18, or if you save a little more a SVS 25-31PCi, that IMO will give you more to your setup than ND310s, but thats just my opinion.

    System on a budget

    Patrick, Glad I could help, you wont be dispointed, I have the VSX-D912K, and for me it does everything that I need and more, its a excelent reciever for the money. And the 812K isnt that different, only the autocalibration and an extra 10w per channel, feture wise I think they are twins...
