Just went to audiogon and saw the listing I think you are refering to. S8 (8/10 - no base plate) $750 SLCR (9/10 - excellent condition) $400 That gives me a ballpark. Thanks Chris, Kevin

MA S8 MA SLCR Didn't realize speakers had a "bluebook." Kevin

Fortunately, the speakers are still a current model (mid to upper end) unfortunately..... with limited distribution. For that reason, after extensive searching on the internet, I can't find any second hand speakers to use as a reference. Looked at ebay and only found "new" items. I will look...

I'm looking sell my current speakers and unsure what a fair price would be. Speakers are less 2 years old and in perfect condition with all packaging. How much off "street pricing" should I go?

I've been extremely impressed with my HGS15. It looks damm nice too!!

I'm I'm currently looking at in-ceiling speakers for a secondary HT and was given the suggestion for Jamo speakers.......any thoughts on those?

Yes. Sold it to the kid that helped me move this past weekend. When my wife saw "the monster" as she call it in our new home she realized a wall mounted TV would give her more options for a new sofa. She get's a new sofa and I get a new plasma. I needed to sell the 65" before my wife...

FWIW: I just sold my 3 year old Hitachi 65SWX20B for $ 1,250. Perfect condition with another 2 years on the warranty.

I auditioned numerous speakers (ie. B&W, Polk, Klipsch, Paradigm, Def Tech, Kef, Infinity, M&K) and the MA were at the top of my list after many hours of listening. IMO for the money they are difficult to beat. I agree ...setup properly the speakers will disappear. They reintroduced me to my...

Yes. I purchased the LCR and the S8's last year. What can I answer for you?

That's the best part. They actually were driving a "white van" It made the experience complete. It wasn't until I got back in my car that I remembered I had my camera with me. I'm thinking that picture would have been worth more than a snapshot of Bigfoot. Wayne, I absolutely bought them...

Walking into B of A at lunch time I experienced the legend. I was so surprised when asked to buy some speakers that I said "Holy Shit......The White Van Speakers guys do actually exist!" They quickly drove away.

Thanks for the response Jim. That's exactly what I ended up doing last night. My wife will never play Xbox so it made more sense to have the receiver do the switching for the DVD and TV. I'm starting to understand why upgrading is a never ending process. :frowning: :frowning: :D

Up till now I ran everything through my receiver with one S.Video to the TV. I recently upgraded to a HDTV, Progressive Scan DVD and just picked up an HDTV Cable box from Adelphia. Unfortunately, my Denon 3803 doesn't have enough component connections to keep everything the same ( 2 video...

Julian......thanks for the links ! Great sites.

“Let me qualify by stating my knowledge is based on less than 2 weeks of experience with my Hitachi” - I have Adelphia cable and IMO it stinks! Like you, I have found very little difference between (480/480i/1080i) and tend to leave it on the default setting of 480i. - If your DVD player...

I just got a 65SWX20B. I don't think it makes a difference what video mode you calibrate. They can all be individually tweaked and reset if necessary. I calibrated Video-Movie for normal viewing and slightly tweaked Video-Sports for Xbox. You should have a manual focus option with your TV...

I would have enjoyed it more , but my sub is at home :D

Watched that scene numerous times............ and have yet to finish the movie. Funny how my sub has condensed many loooooooooooong movies into fantastic 20-30 min. video clips.:D

Not an SVS owner (Velo HGS15II) but still have "sub" pride of ownership. I highly suggest testing as many placements options as you can. I had my sub in what I thought was the best place for more than a year. When we put hardwood floors in I played around with a few more locations. When you...

There is no turning back now !!!!! After I added a sub to my system I was ruined for life. :emoji_thumbsup:

I like the way you think! Unfortunately because she is selling "everything" they won't need them. I felt like I was walking through a dept. store with everything 75% off. I left with her 2 year old fridge for my garage ($175) and a 4 month old Nikon CoolPix 5700 ($250). My Bday came early this...

Took a look at the unit last night. I realized the price was good but I was concerned the effect her 4 kids and 2 dogs had on the TV. She was clever and had a protective sheet put on the screen so it’s perfect. There’s a small scrap on the bottom right corner just below the screen and a pen...

Neighbors are divorcing and liquidation everything. They offered me their Hitachi 65SWX20B for $1000. I had no intentions to upgrade my 9-year-old Sony 53" but I think this to good of a deal to pass up ? I typically research for a looooooooong time to make a purchase and because a new TV...

I'm glad to hear others have had similar experiences with Velodyne. It's understandable to be pissed when a product fails. When a company responds in a positive manner that overshadows your anger they deserve Kudos! ps. Put my sub back together last night and everything worked...

I had a problem with the amp on my Velodyne HGS15 II and contacted Velodyne’s warranty dept. for assistance. They were extremely helpful and professional. I sent the amp back as instructed on 10/17 (UPS ground). Today is Monday 10/27 and amp just arrived back in my hands. That is less than 7...

Spoke to Velodyne today. After describing the problem they said it’s my amp. Unscrew the amp, send it to them and I should have a new one in 7-10 days. Very helpful Customer Service with no hassle.

Brian, Thanks for the reply. I just did what you suggested but didn't hear any scratching noise. However, the cone is very taunt when the sub is off so the pressure I applied and movement was very little (I didn't want to dent the cone if I have to send it back). On a side not: This...

I called Velodyne but doesn't look like they have cust. service over the weekend. The popping sound is there at any volume. The instant the sub turns on it starts. I pulled the grill off this morning and visually the cone looks fine. If I stabalize the cone with my finger the popping...
