Hey out there. I have purchased the 1400 , and am finishing the setup and have a concern. I have a slightly older Tosh 65h80 HDTV, and it has only 2 HD inputs. I am keeping my DTV HD box directly into the Tosh, and using my Yamaha for video switching. I think I notice a quality loos when...

I do not quite understand what that means. But, how about leave it and get a sub ( SVS 20-39pc plus ?) that would be big enough to handle the adjoining room? Thanks!

I am leaning towards closing it off. My wife is concerned with making the house look " small " with it closed. If, the room would be 18x11 closed, what size sub would you guys go with?

Hello out there. Quick question about my home theater room. I have a room that is 18x11, with a open 4th wall that goes into an identical siz room. All my speakers and subwoofer is in the one room, and I was thinking of upgrading my sub. I use the Energy 5.2 system with their 8'sub and a...

Hey, thanks for the reply Brad. I have the 8' sub from Energy, and a 10 sub from Kenwood that really old working together with my 5,2s. It actually makes me wonder if I will notice that much of a difference. Sure would love to hear from someone that has upgraded the 5,2 with a better sub to give...

Thank you. I do calibrate my speakers with the radio shack analog. I was wondering though, if anyone has upgraded the 5.2 system with a better su, and what they thought.

Would anyone think that adding this sub to an Energy 5.2 system be overkill for a room thats 18x11?

John, thanks for the reply.I have a room that is 18 x 11 and use an Energy 5.2 system with 2 subs. One is the 8'Energy sub and the other is a 10' old Kenwood. I am trying very hard to find the right configuration for my system to give it a fair evaluation. I am really leaning towards an upgrade...

What if having them the same distance seperated as away from the listening position means that they are near or very close to the side walls. Would that be alright? Also on many sites I see pictures of peoples speakers and they are right up against their tvs.

I am leaning towards the 60s, mostly because I like the look and don't want to be bothered with stands. I was wondering if 12 ft away was too close for the 60s though. What do you think? A door makes it impossible to hang my Qs8s to my sides at ear level, so my choices are: 1)Slightly in front...

By the way, my room is 18x11.

I just got the OK to purchase some Axioms to replace my Energy 5.2 system! I am going VP150, 2 Qs8s, but cannot decide on the M60 or M22s. I will be getting a HSU STF2 sub. Would like to get moving on this, but am not sure. Any thoughts? Thanks

Oh, do you think that the 2.2 center for the 5.2 system with a c-1 front upgrade would not be a good match? That center is alitle expensive. Would the c -1s be ok if I laid them on their sides? I dont think that they will work on my 2.2 stands. They will however go nicely on my bookcase, but on...

Thanks Gary, our rooms seem exactly rhe same. Been thinking of many things to change, but my 5.2s really do almost satisfy me. I am leaning towards this move. Thanks

Hasent anyone any thoughts on this?
