Jon, We came to an agreement on a price for the speaker setup. You have not come though with your end and I haven't heard from you for 10 days, despite 3 polite messages asking for an update. I can be understanding about your divorce. I can no longer be understanding about your lack of...

I have a pair of B&W DM303 speakers and the matching center channel speaker for sale. I've been using these for about 2.5 years now and they are great speakers. Just take a look at the link below for everything you need to see. Notice the huge number of great reviews and the European Loud...

I've got my name on a Swan 5.1 setup and should be getting the E-Mail that they are ready to ship in the next day or two. While I've been waiting, I started looking around again and now I'm having seconds thoughts. I didn't know until yesterday that HTD is based here in Dallas and I'm now...

If you can borrow one from someone, strongly consider using a plate (biscuit) joiner. Can't be beat, in my opinion, when working with MDF. Great for holding parts in alignment while you apply clamps. With screws, you have to hold everything in alignment while you drill pilot holes, which I find...

Thanks Guys, Looks like I also have the option of using XLS cables between the BFD and the amp. Would there be any benefit to going that route? -Chris

Morning, Does anyone know of a tutorial on cables and such for pro audio equipment? I need to hook a BFD to the sub out of my receiver and a pro amp to the output of the BFD. I'm not sure what cables I'll need though, and didn't order any with the BFD and amp. Thanks for any help. -Chris

I just ordered a EP1500 and BFD. Hope you don't take it personally, James. :D -Chris

Thomas, Do you have a recommended source for the Behringer? Thanks, Chris

Do you know the TS parameters for the driver your friend has? If not, I would suggest getting rid of it and picking up a driver that you can model with one of the box design programs. This has nothing to do with the material you use for the enclosure but the potential is pretty high for...

I just want to jump in here with a comment. I absolutely would not consider buying lower end speakers to match a receiver. A nice set of speakers will last you for many years and will give you one of the best returns on your investment of any home theater component. Your receiver is going to be...

Cam, You just gave me another example of where I believe a router would be superior to a jigsaw. Cutting the end cap for a tube sub would be much easier with a router and Jasper jig. You could do it with the jigsaw, by cutting a tiny bit oversize and trimming to a final fit with sandpaper...

I think I paid around $150.00 for the Bosch at Home Depot or Lowes. You can get them cheaper if you shop around and especially if you catch a good sale. Many people consider the Bosch with the barrel grip to be the best jigsaw available, but the Makita or Porter Cable in the same general price...

Try this site. Pat Warner is "Mr. Router". http://www.patwarner.com/ FYI, most people don't realize how well a good jigsaw can work for cutting holes. I have a nice Porter Cable router mounted in a table and a Bosch router with fixed and plung bases plus a jig for circle cutting. I didn't...

Phone? On which OS does that run? Is it freeware or do you have to pay for it?
