Dunlavy SCV-a1

Chu-Gai: Try Sterlingmooncoffee.com. The don't even roast the beans until you order!

As you won't be getting your speakers for a while, I might suggest you calling Axiom back and just having conversation with them regarding using a third M22 as a center rather than the VP-150. I had both. Timber matching can be more important than you think, especially across the front. Three...

Well...I have had three receivers, now I am on seperates, I have had at least 4-5 change of speakers, I now have Dunlavy, but the single most impressive upgrade I ever made to my system was when I bought my SPL meter and dialed in my speakers. I know that's a pretty strong statement, but I mean...

I was just joking!! I have some speakers in my home that are bi-wired and others that aren't. Can't say I can tell a difference, but then again, I'm no expert either!! :)

One negative effect is that you will have less money in your wallet! :D

Johnny: Thats what I thought. I believe the issue is not the cable but the line doubler in your TV. The reason the DVD looks nice is that it is progrssive and uses its own line doubler and outputs via component in to the TV. Your issue, I believe, with the picture on your TV is that satelite...

Well you certainly have a problem! If you have a progressive scan DVD player the picture should be outstanding at 480p. Does your TV have component connections? Have you tried to connect the DVD player to the TV via component? At least this will narrow it down a little. It may be as simple as a...

Jay: No difference, use whichever is cheaper as long as the construction in good. Johnny: This sounds to me like more of an issue with the built in line doubler in your TV. I hear a LOT from people who buy HDTV's and then hate the picture from cable or satelite. Questions: Do you have...

OK. HDTV is 1080i resolution. DVD's will not play at anywhere near that resolution they usually play at 480i. That is unless you buy a progressive DVD player and then the picture is 480p. Not HDTV quality, but significantly better than 480i. And of course, any material that is broadcast that is...

I make recomendations from time to time, and I was very close to buying the Outlaw amp instead of the Sherbourn. I want to make sure I understand. Are you saying that you did not like the sales support because of a specific reason or only because they wouldn't discount, and despite your efforts...

For what its worth. I ordered a Sherbourn 7/2100 about 6 months ago. It seemed to have issues when I tried to connect it up and I called Sherbourn. I got right through to Ron Fone, one of the owners and rather than have me unhappy at all, they actually cross shipped a brand new unit to me. I had...

Go visit Axiom's web site. They have quad speakers for rear effects. The models are QS-4's and QS-8's. I have a pair of QS-4's matched with my three Dunlavy speakers across the front. They are nothing short of phenominal. I had tried three different speaker combinations for my rear speakers...

You should get a few responses on this post. I believe that you will hear that Denon sounds much warmer than the NAD and that the NAD will sound more neutral. I happen to agree with this. I have many different receivers and amps in my home by a variety of manufacturers. I have also listened to...

An idea. Why not run your VCR, DVD, etc directly into your receiver, allowing it to do the video switching and then run the receiver component out to the TV. This way you get the best picture from all sources switched through the receiver. This frees up the second input on the TV so you can run...
