    H/K DPR 1001 Problem?

    The thing is I had already powered the Axiom M80ti's with a cheaper reciever with much better results. I had previously used the pioneer's digital reciever which is about $250 or so at best buy. I thought the H/K would be a step up, however I think it might be because the Axioms are 4 ohm and...

    H/K DPR 1001 Problem?

    I just bought the H/K DPR 1001 for my Axiom M80ti's. I am not real happy with the reciever, hopefully I can get some help here. When I am playing a CD on my pioneer 563a and if I turn the volume past -20dB, I usually hear a cracking, distorted noise, usually in the high volumes. When I am...

Read about it here: http://www.adireaudio.com/Files/Dan/Parthenon/ 121dB reference volume NAKED, without a box. This sub...

    "I'm waiting for Pioneer to come out with a 5 disc version of their 563 player but I'm a cheap #$%&^%$#. Anyway, have fun!" Sums it all up for me ;)

    Best mini stereo system??

    This may not be what you are looking for, but at $400 retail, the Klipsch ProMedia Ultimate 5.1 (computer speakers, just released) is GREAT for the price. I can get them for under $300 with my discount at Best Buy though ;)

    HDCD Recommendations

    I am guessing my Pioneer 563a SACD/DVD-A universal won't play HDCD? If not, that really sucks, I love 311! Does 311 have any SACD or DVD-A albums out?

    I am getting my hk 7200 from harmanaudio on ebay.com not sure if he is an authorized dealer though (probably not). But he claims factory warranties on all products.

    H/K DPR 1001 receiver

    Just wondering if this H/K is true to it's power rattings. It looks like they cheaped out on this one: "All Channels: 50 Watts per channel @ 8 Ohms, 1kHz, 0.19% THD" 50 watts in a single frequency with .19% THD? That doesn't sound like the normal power rattings they give. They usualy rate...

    Ascend CBM-170 vs Axiom M80ti

    My room is about 13x13x9 (around 1,500cuft). I would try both out, but my credit card has a $1,000 limit :frowning: , I guess I will have to save up enough money to buy both at once, but I'd like to hear people's opinions on this matter anyways.

    Ascend CBM-170 vs Axiom M80ti

    The white pages in ascend's website state a 4 ohm impedence load: http://www.ascendacoustics.com/Main/...0_tech_web.pdf When we compare 6 drivers per speaker to 2 drivers per speaker in this case, does the more drivers make for a better sound, or just a louder sound. That's one of the main...

    Ascend CBM-170 vs Axiom M80ti

    I know this does not sound like a fair fight ($328/pair vs $1,100/pair), but with all the raving reviews about the CBM-170 performing as good as or better than speakers costing 2-3x the price tag, I think it's time to set it straight. To be more fair to the CBM-170, I'd like the comparison to...

    Any Pipe Organ Recording Recommendations?

    Not sure if it has many pipe organs, but the Blue Man Group album is a good cd to test it out on. Plus a lot of the songs on the new A Perfect Circle album is great too.

    Bass Shakers, SVS question

    I intend to hook up 2 Aura Pro Bass Shakers into my home theater set-up sometime. I was wondering, is there any way to make use out of the 6th amp channel on my marantz to power these shakers? I know that it is a rear-channel so there won't be much bass, but that is why the SVS comes into play...

    Marantz 7300/7300OSE impedance question

    I lost the bid on the Axiom speakers anyways, I guess I should pay more attention next time! All their other speakers were 8 ohm that I looked at, so I just assumed. I may look into that NAD or an Outlaw950/7100 combo (it's like $1800)
