I was too slow. Sorry

Is it ok to have the speaker flush with the edge of the cabinet?

Concerning the Ascends, how do they perform for movies and the such? I watch/listen movies about 75% of the time. All the reviews say they sound great for music but nothng about home theater. Also, because of room layout, any speaker I purchase will have to sit inside an entertainment center. Do...

I don't want to hijack your thread, but can anyone suggest a good bookshelf speaker with not so much emphasis on bass. Because of room constraints, I have to use bookshelf speakers but don't need something with great bass because I have a SVS 20-39pc+. I am also in the

Ed, Thanks for costing me $1200+ with that great review.:laugh: I currently have 20-39pc+ and till now have been very happy. After reading your review, I once again have the fever to upgrade. Just when I almost had enough money for a new HK 525 receiver. Well maybe I can put that purchase off...

Starting last weekend, I am replacing all the carpet in my living room with tile. At this point, I am going to put the sub back in its original spot. What kind of difference will tile have on the sound? Any concerns about poor sound? I saved a piece of carpet to put under the sub to keep it...

Thanks Zack!! All this time I have been trying to increase the spl within one test section- for example, I would listen to the left center-sub phase test for a rise in spl while adjusting the phase knob. Scott

Zack_R Is it possible to use the test you posted above about phase without using a microphone? I only have the RS spl meter. I do own a Avia disk but I find adjusting the phase while watching the meter difficult. Any suggestions on music? Thanks Scott

Brian Fellmeth- I am only running a digital coax cable from dvd player to receiver. As far as that goes, I don't have anything else hooked up to the receiver. Because it is a pain in the butt to move the receiver to drill holes in the entertainment center, I have yet to hook up my tv or my...

Using that method, will my Dobly Digital or DTS still sound the same? Like I said, at this point movies are my primary reason I use the receiver. I'll give it a try though. Scott

Thanks for the input. I will be getting a new receiver soon. I brought it up to the wife last night and she seemed less than thrilled. Since I use the receiver mostly for DVD (75 movie/25 music), I will have to make due till maybe income tax check arrives. Thanks again. Scott

I am thinking of buying another receiver but don't want to make the same mistake. I assume the Denon 3803 has better bass management. Any other suggestions ? Scott

There are no options to turn off on my receiver. None that I can find anyway.

I have the sub crossover turned off because thats the way SVS said to set it. I have my receiver set to 80hz but could go as high as 120hz if that might help. I assume by using the receiver's settings, most of the bass would be going to the sub but that doesn't seem to be the case. The little 6"...

Steve, Yes, I do keep the speaker settings to small during either music or movies. Since I use the dvd player as my cd player, I use the same settings on my receiver. The signal to the receiver is relayed through a digital coax cable from dvd player. The sub is connected to the LFE output...

I am getting too much bass from my mains while playing 2 channel mode. Because of room constraints/entertainment center, I have to use bookshelf mains. Normally this is not a problem because I mostly watch dvds in 5.1. Most of the bass is directed to the sub during movies. While listening to...
