Thanks for all the replies. I have an SPL meter and plan on getting Avia. So I'm thinking the 812 is the way to go. Anyone have this unit? Where (online) is a good price?
Bill, Tim, I've been looking, but haven't been able to find if this unit has connectivity for multichannel-Sacd. If so how is the bass management? Appreciate your time. paul
Both of these seem to be available for around $300. The 26 is a refurbished model. I am interested in both home theatre and multichannel sacd listening. Should I stick with the newer technology-912k or go for the preumably better sonics of the 26-lower THD and thx certified. This will be for...
I would like to purchase a single paradigm atom for my center channel. Need shielded and prefer black. Would consider buying a pair, or splitting a pair with someone. My thanks;) paul
Tom, $559:D Nice work! Was this the price in the store or did you work some magic? If you don't mind sharing. Chris, Thanks for the info about the store receipt. Very helpful. Can a person call up and ask for Joe? Would you reccomend doing so? My thanks paul
Stephen, Thanks for the tip. My resolve to linger on the 912k is weakening. I've heard it said that warranty would be intact through Sammans. What has your experience been through Ultimate, ie: any indication you do not have right to the full warranty coverage. Thanks for the...
RichardL, Bill, Thanks for the replies. My dvd/sacd player does have settings for distance of speakers. Wonder if this would "override" the receivers MCACC? The price from Sammans is very attractive. I've seen it mentioned a number of times without any negative comments. Let's see, how...
Stephen, NickSP, Thanks for the contiued help. The room measures 10' x 18', while the listening "area" is 10' x 10' if that makes sense. Speakers are(currently) a pair of Paradigm atoms as my mains and hsu vtf-2 subwoofer. Plan to get another atom as a center(anyone have an extra?:D), and a...
Steve & Stephen, Thanks for the replies.:emoji_thumbsup: Yeah, I'm kinda skeptical Pioneer will deliver the goods in respect to the MCACC-but hope springs eternal! I'm building a mixed, rather budget minded system. I'm sure that I won't be dissappointed with the 4es. I just am not sure...
LanceJ & Stephen, Thanks for the input. Perhaps I should have split this into two threads: What do people think about the 912K & Where to get the best deal on the DA4ES. I understand these are at different pricepoints. Perhaps the one thing they share is pushing the features/value ratio at...
Hello folks! Anyone have some thoughts on where to buy Sacd's online. I've done ok with cc and bb, but thought I'd check to see what others experiences were. Any recommendations? My thanks, paul
Stephen, Thanks for the help. You are right that this is not a direct comparison-different levels. I am concerned which will match up better with my sacd player-sony ns755v. Or will there be much of a difference? Well, more for me to think on. Thanks again:emoji_thumbsup: paul
* What do folks think of this receiver? Does anyone have it yet? I've been looking into getting a receiver and have been 90%+ set on the sony DA4ES. Then I saw this unit was coming out. The budget side of me says take a look(lots of features at an inexpensive price-I've heard 350 street), the...
Don, I have had a ns755v for about 10 days now and am pleased with it so far. Both audio and video(interlaced) playback seem nice. Only 10 days so this is in no way definitive, but so far so good. Just checked onecall and they had it for $223 shipped. Sounds like you are upgrading and will be...
Jamie, I have a pair of Paradigm Export monitors which I had some cables made up to bi-wire with common spades. I definitely think it is worth it. To give it a try inexpensively, how about some lamp cord/inexpensive 12ga to start. Your ears will be the best judge as to whether it is worth it...
