I actually had my paladiums hot rodded and the rep told me about the preamp so i bought it. Its been years since i sold the amps but i may have the pre amp in the garage.

I had a 12" IDMAX built for my home audio. the box was sealed. It played so damn low, that i ended up swapping subs to a IDQ12 v3. But dont let anyone tell you an IDmax wont be a good home sub. its pretty damn impressive. Just make sure you put a good amount of power to it.

what i do is this. I grab a CD with test tones and music, some sheffield CD. I play it and have the CD repeat. The i grab the speakers and face them face to face. really close to each other. Then i cover them up with thick, thick blankets. A couple if you have them. I then turn them up to a...

where you from?

We measured by watching the same few scenes. 6 of us sat there and we all came to the same conclusion. Sorry i didn't do it with some special tool. But when 6 of us can instantly notice, a more brilliant picture by just changing cable, Its a pretty obvious that there is a difference in cables.

Is there a way to tivo Direct tv into my HTPC?

I am friends with the guys over at Imagae Dynamics and let me tell you, they have a few IDmazes setup in their office for HT use and it is insane. Those guys over there are into some sick highend audio. The have a refrigerator sized sub that is the most musical sub i hae ever heard...
