    For an all in one, idiot proof, quick fix the SOS is not bad. -Brian

    Subwoofer EQ - Advice please

    I actually have the SOS on hand. I just bought it last week. I haven't had a chance to try it and measure the results. I get the feeling it won't help my situation much, however. -Brian

    Subwoofer EQ - Advice please

    Is there another EQ that works as well as the BFD? The BFD looks complicated. Is there another EQ that you would recommend that works well w/ a subwoofer? I don't mind paying more $. -Brian

    Paradigm Studio V3's

    Does any one have specs on the V3s yet? Such as frequency response, efficiency, etc? The owner's manual doesn't have a thing!

    I have the new V3s sitting here and NO amp and NO preamp!! 1-2 weeks on order. Ugh.

    Perhaps the dealer was playing up the V2s so he could sell a pair? Nah, that would not happen! BTW, I just got a full 5.1 setup of V3s in my living room!

    Anthem AVM20 or Krell Showcase?

    Actually I never ended up buying a processor. I ended up trading in my Paradigm V2 speakers. I am waiting on delivery of the new V3 Reference series. This gives me a few weeks to think about what to get. I'm constantly back and forth but I'm now leaning towards a Anthem AVM-20 and MCA-50...

    Scratch that! My dealer is clue less. I called the MotherShip in Canada. The Reference line is no V.3, available now. The signature line is still a few month away, according the Paradigm. Hope this helps...

    Paradigm Studio V3's

    My dealer just talked to the regional rep. According to my dealer the Reference series finish options will change but the line will remain the same. He said the Signature line will be above the Reference line but now replace it. Is he right? I have no clue. I have some Ref V2 speakers...

    Anthem AVM20 or Krell Showcase?

    I finally, after much research, have decided on the Krell Showcase. The final decision came today when I called up an Anthem dealer and asked the price on an Anthem AVM-20. He said he hasn't sold one in 3 months. He stopped selling them because he said the 50% of his customers were having...

    The Upgraded Anthem AVM-20 2.0 Thread

    Hi Guys! I hope to be an Anthem owner soon. I am having trouble finding a dealer . Would you guys mind emailing me at: [email protected] w/ a dealer name/ phone number? What can I expect to pay for a new Anthem AVM-20? Any help greatly appreciated!

    Anthem AVM20 or Krell Showcase?

    I can get the Krell for $3K. I was about to buy a used Anthem but I found out the warranty is not transferable. Can someone email me an Anthem dealer that discounts? I don't have a dealer w/in 300 miles! What can I expect to pay for a new anthem?

    Anthem AVM20 or Krell Showcase?

    As features stand right now, today, I would buy the Krell as their is no single feature on the AVM that betters the Krell that I need. My only reservation, and it is large one, is the fact that the Anthem is so easily and constantly upgradeable. In fact, they have another update coming in...

    I was quoting Krell verbatim. Don't give me a hard time for their comment. ;-)

    No surprise what Krell said. Here is how I see it. Krell Showcase 7.1 For: Parametric EQ Sonics Against: Price Upgradability Anthem AVM-20 For: Price Upgrade options BM (if you want to digitize analog signals) May be upgrade to Firewire Against: No EQ...

    Anthem AVM20 or Krell Showcase?

    Hi Mike, I don't want to digitize an analog signal. I talked to both Krell and Anthem today. Anthem recommended using the BM in their processor instead of the source device. I can't see why? Krell said that in a side by side comparision the Showcase would "blow the Anthem out of the water".

    Anthem AVM20 or Krell Showcase?

    Thanks for the reply. As far as BM all I need for the Denon to do is have an 80HZ cutoff. I'd rather have the BM done digitally. What other BM options does the AV20 give?

    Anthem AVM20 or Krell Showcase?

    Do you guys know if the Krell does any AD conversion? Can you digitize the SACD analog inputs and apply EQ, BM, etc?

    Anthem AVM20 or Krell Showcase?

    I am deciding between an Anthem AVM20 or Krell Showcase 7.1. I can get them for roughly the same amount of money. I like the Krell's multi-channel EQ function. On the AVM I like the Analog DSP function for SACD and DVD-A. I don't know how much I would use that function however as my Denon...
