Ok, I'm going to buy a sat system for three season porch. We will be primarily watching TV and the occasional movie. Since the room is quite small, I want to use wall mounted Sat. speakers. Also, I would like to keep the speaker cost to $500 or less. Currently, I'm thinking of the Polk RM6750 or...
Ok, I have a stupid question. I'm guessing if I add an amp to power my front speakers this will reduce the load on my receiver. Is that correct? If I never push my system to my receiver limits will I see any benefit adding an amp? On a side note, what do you think about the Onkyo M-282 amp...
After moving to a new house, I find I have extra speakers. I'm looking to sell the following (Note all were taken out of the box to test, but never used in a system): Athena AS-C1 $100 Athena AS-B1 $100 Parts Express 10" Sub $75 The following were lightly used in a second system for...
Ok, it's hard not to get caught up in the excitement about the 1014TX. I currently have a Yamaha RX-V630 driving Boston CR85/CR75/VRC system in a 12x20 room. I do not push the system just because I don't like listening at high levels, but I've often wondered if I would benefit from more power at...
I've narrowed my sub search to a SVS PCi, HSU, or the Outlaw LFM-1. Outlaw is currently offering free shipping. Combine this with splitting the two subs for $999 and you get a very nice sub for $500. Anyone interested?
I have a yamaha receiver which only has an output for one set of mains. I would like to use this for my 5.1 HT as well as to drive some outside and bedroom speakers. Can I add an amp to do this? If so, how would I wire it and what would be some recommended amps?
I went to wire a new system in my parents new house. The house came pre-wired for 5.1 surround. The sub wiring put the sub on an adjacent wall. When I plug the sub into this wire connection and outlet, I get an awful humming sound. I get this sound with or without the receiver connected...
Ok, I've been collecting speakers for a HT system for my parents new house. I just picked up the Dayton 10" sub. The thing is, I just drove the four hours to do the final walk through on the house and discovered the previous owners are leaving a pre-wired 5.1 system (front and rear in the...
I currently own the Boston PV600. Overall I've been happy with this sub, however, I'm curious to try something else. How do you think the hsu stf-2 would compare?
I have a Boston System in my sun room and I want to upgrade the surrounds. This is the system: CR85 Fronts VRC Center Yamaha RX-V630 onkyo Surrounds from HTS650 system The room is about 12 x 22. The surrounds have to be mounted at about 10'. I was looking for CR65s or CR75s. My...
Ok, I'm upgrading my HT system and will be buying a new center and fronts. I'm currently looking at: Axiom M3 or M22 paired with VP100 or VP150 Boston Acoustics CR85 with CRC Energy c1 with C-C1 or Used B&W 601 or 602 with CC6 I was leaning toward the Axiom, but I've heard strong...
