Another brand is 'Skyline'. I haven't heard them, but I'm sure they replicate music about as well as a steaming dog turd would. No offense to dog turds. I have seen these guys hanging out in the parking lot of my bank - right by the ATM. They asked me if I wanted some studio quality speakers...

That same scene really pushed my 2039PCi. There was a noticeable chatter inside - almost the same sound as something rattling on the shelves. That is the only time I have ever heard this beast make a sound that was not appropriate. Of course, I had so friggin loud that the LFE mananaged to...

Do you have any photos of the damaged sub itself? (out of the box) Until anyone sees the actual damage, it is hard to justfy whether 10% is enough to stomach the scratch/dent.

I've read several SVS shipping horror stories from Ron and Tom. Sadly, your shipping problems probably do not even make the top twenty in terms of total damage.

I do not know the source of mad cow, but steroids are not behind its spread. Most of the spread occured by the practice of slaughtering sick/week cattle than processing their meat for feed in others cows. I mean, in concept it sounds nice. Lots of protein. Reality however was a different story...

I am sort of going through the same thing right now. I have feared that scale for the last couple of years. I mean I saw it there in the bathroom, but you wouldn't have got me to actually step on it unless you put a gun to my head. I KNEW I would like what it told me and it was easier to ignore...

I have a 20-39 PCi too. I upgraded from a Klipsch KSW-12 about three months ago. Let me tell you that the difference is HUGE. Not only does it go lower and louder than anything I had demoed before, but it also goes lower and louder than anything my friends own (which, IMO is the best part.)...

I cant vouch for how good it is, but I thought this article was an interesting read about the need for multiple subs. I have had it bookmarked for about a year now and remembered it when I read this thread. http://www.hometheatersound.com/feat...n_20010301.htm

I think I might have got my terminology wrong, yet again. I got a digital audio coax cable to get DTS and 5.1. Just one cable running from my DVD player to my receiver. I haven't messed with the video yet because the next upgrade would be the s-video. I am already using a composite RCA type...

Thank for the terminology correction again, Stephen. I bought a digital coaxial cable last night and recalibrated my entire system. Wow. That makes a HUGE difference. Best $35 I have ever spent. Thanks for the heads up, guys. About the remote, I checked the link you provided, but some of them...

Thanks for the tip on my terminology. I edited my original. My receiver is not all that new nor very expensive, so I doubt that it has any means of conversion. Well, that is kind of what I figured, but was hoping that I could change all my sources at the receiver without messing with the...

Ok guys, here is my problem. I am trying use S-Video for everything in my system, but my digital cable box only has a composite video out. Before I would run everything using composite video, DVD, Cable, X box, playstation, etc. Well I tried upgrading to s-video for a better picture on my...

My cat could care less about the SVS. Never did use it as a scratching post, nor did he attempt to. I think somewhere in the back of his cat-mind, he knows that I would beat him senseless if damaged my beautiful tower. Funny thing is that the big bass doesn't even scare him. Little guy sleeps...

I have no problem with Peja Stojakovic being a reserve. The NBA stipulates that two guards, two forwards and a center start the game. The two starting forwards are Garnett and Duncan. You really can't sit either one of those guys in favor of Peja.

Thanks Rich! Soon I will be up to my 15 posts where I can do that myself. I didn't have to watch a commercial and I am not a subscriber, so I think all is safe there. That is a very good article in my opinion. I watched the movie about three times and loved it. Reading the article afterwards...

Russell - Here is a pretty good explaination of the movie. WARNING ... do not read this unless you have watched the movie. archive.salon.com/ent/movies/feature/2001/10/23/mulholland_drive_analysis/ Sigh - I don't have enough total posts to put a URL up so you'll have to type the http...

Alright, I have about a year old Klipsch KSW-12 sub. I am not using it right now, but would like to keep it as a back-up or to possibly integrate it into a bedroom system some day. Anyway, there is a problem with the sub. I don't know how to explain this well, but I'll give it a shot. On the...

I am jumping in on this late, I know. Glad you are happy with your sub. I saw the title and just had to chime in and let you know that I would not go with the KSW. Looks like you did that anyway. Good. I had a KSW-12 for about a year and was never impressed with it. Boomy, muddy, and...

This audioenvy thing is new to me. Has any of you ever demoed a product or had someone else demo something at you house? How was your experience? I ask because it would be nice to demo stuff I want to purchase and also because there is nobody really close that has a PCi. I could list it on...

I see what I was looking at on the B&W site. They actually make a speaker by the same name that is boxed all the way to the floor. Click on "floor standing models" and it is the first speaker you will see. I now see the bookshelf variety that you guys are talking about ..... not bad. Lew -...

Ok, a few more things after reading the responses ... Carlos - after looking at the B&W web site, it looks like the 602's are floor standing models. Am I looking at that right? Just curious because you advised to stay away from floor standing models. I also found a dealer that is pretty...

To answer a couple of questions ... I am not sure if the H/K can handle 4 ohms or not. I am at work right now, so I do not have the model number with me. I can tell you that it is a 5.1, 55w/channel and cost approx. $600 via circuit city two years ago. Maybe you guys will know which unit I have...

Including shipping, if from an online source. I want to upgrade my JBL Northridge surround system. I figure that I could spend about 2k MAX for something better. So as my first question asked in this forum, I ask you guys to buy me a system. Some other things to consider: -HK receiver...

lol, I've lurked here for awhile, but signed up to reply to Ron. Maybe I'll stick around awhile. :) Ron, I have an SVS 20-39PCi and live about 45 minutes from Sacramento. I'd be happy to demo it for you if you are willing to make the drive. If not, I agree with what the others have said...
