Can anyone tell me, when I watch certain Netflix streaming movies, Mi3 for example, do the voices come out of one of the front left or right speakers and not the center channel? Also, I have music downloaded on my Galaxy s2 phone via Rhapsody and when I play the music through the auxilary port...

I was wondering if anyone had any opinions on wether or not this would be a good material for bass traps. http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-x-27-x-82-Foam-Rubber-Sheet-Cushion-Replacement-/310491197429?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item484ab7aff5 Even if this may not the absolute perfect material, if the...

Hi Robert, Other than the TC sounds axis mentioned above, is there another less expensive driver that would drop into this box? http://www.danmarx.org/audioinnovation/tc3000.html That looks like something I would be comfortable building as my first attempt. Also, what amp would you recommend...

Update: Good news, he finally got back to me, said he was out of town. He turned down my initial offer saying he had other offers and would only take what he was asking ($795) and said whoever gets there first gets them so for $50 bucks more and finally some communication from him, I purchased...

Awesome. Thank you for the heads up Sam. You guys have a pretty good handle on things around here. Anyone got any stock tips? :D I orginally came here for advice on upgrading a center channel for about $250. Now I've purchased a Paradigm cc-590 center that was traded into my local dealer, a pair...

Thank you Gene, I was hoping to hear from someone that had a lot of experience with audiogon. That was exactly the kind of info I was looking for. I'll go ahead and give it a try. Thank you Sam and Ty also for the advice and help. Update: I offered him $745 plus shipping via UPS ground up to...

I thought about the vacation thing also. Seems odd though that someone would post something for sale right before going on vacation. Think I should I just go ahead and buy them and see what happens? He does have good feedback and Audiogon seems to be pretty legit. Although a red flag for me now...

I'm not sure if this is the appropriate forum to post this so please move if necessary. I found the exact speakers I am looking for on Audiogon for what seems like a reasonable price. A pair of Paradigm ADP-590's that the seller, Kirbygaboury has listed for $795. Having never purchased on...

How about a used sub from flea bay? Any good suggestions on what may be a really nice sub that cost more when new and I could now pick up used in the $500-$750 range?

Sam/Robert, the funny things is that I actually have advanced carpentry skills. I grew up building houses when I was younger and even moved on to do doing trim carpentry specifically for a while and still have all the necessary tools. I'm just not so confident in the fact that I know nothing...

Hahaha, you can buy a Toyota for that. A new one. Less even! I'm probably going to look to see what goes into making those just for fun.

Good looking out Gene! I thought it a little fishy that it was the only site I could find that was selling Paradigm speakers as a non "brick and mortar" store. There is no way I would risk ordering something from the Ukraine just to save a few hundred bucks. I looked a little also and found the...

So I was pretty excited that I got to demo some speakers at a local shop here. I listened pretty intently to klipsch, paradigm and Sinclair audio. After hearing what I would call a warm full sound from the paradigms, which I absolutely loved, everything pretty much went downhill from there, with...

Oh by the way, thank you for the tip on HSU Gene, and nice reference to "The Jerk" Robert. Got a kick out of that. :)

Gene, Robert, Thank you for the replys and help. Going back and looking at tons of threads over the last several years it dawned on me that you should both be ordained saints on this board. I noticed you are both in almost every thread I visited trying to help and give advice. Thats a lot of...

Thank you. That was a perfectly simple answer that I think will make looking at receivers in the future a lot easier. Basically just pick the one that matches impedance and get the features I need. As for the speakers, I suppose my original question should have been worded differently. I'm not...

Can anyone confirm for me how much of an upgrade, if any, the RTiA3 line from Polk Audio, would be over the Focal Sibs from JM Labs? http://www.crutchfield.com/p_107RTIA3B/Polk-Audio-RTi-A3-Black.html?tp=186 http://www.crutchfield.com/p_107FXIA4B/Polk-Audio-FXi-A4-Black.html...

Thank you Tony, Gene, Sine, Schan for all the input so far! I guess that makes the score Paradigm 3, everything else, 0. Sounds like you all know what your're talking about so I'm inclined to take your word for it and give the Paradigm a try. Gene, I'm pretty impressed that you knew the Focal...

Thank you for the reply Gene! Currently all of my speakers are the older Focal Sibs and they are no longer in production so I can't get a matching center channel (I've looked) and although I otherwise love the sound the Focals put out, (they sound much larger than they look) they are just too...

Hello, Been lurking for a while and I was wondering if anyone had any opinions on which of these 3 speakers would be a better center channel for the following circumstances. I know they may not be the "ideal" speakers but they fit within the criteria. Priced around $250 or less. Size has to be 7...
