Ronn, did you see the Def Tech's? I said they were unconventional but all I meant was they aren't a square box. I love the shape and the sound;) Sanjiva, I'm curious still why the Yamaha is "better" than the Denon? I liked both for sound but liked the way the denon was set up better. I wanted...

Charles, I ended up with the Earthquake. For the size and the price and the SPL's it was a clear winner. It also comes in a cherry finish which I wasn't sure I would like till I got it home but now I really like the look of it ;) I kept thinking SPL's when shopping as I have a large room but the...

I have a 2802 with Def Tech Procinema 100's great speakers with a not so conventional shape sorta like those Paradigms in design but I thought the sound was much fuller.(bigger drivers too) I also liked the Boston Acoustics 9000's and the little M&K's K-5's.

I almost didn't buy my new house cause my VR970's simply weren't gonna fit in my new living room:frowning: But now my bedroom is a lot more easier to hang out in:D with the 970's in there. It's complete overkill for a small bedroom of course but I couldn't stand the thought of selling them. I...

Derin, I bought the Denon 2802 and I really like it. You get full 6.1 capablity, DPL II, a minimum of soundfields,capable learning remote, simple set up and adjustments and it looks good. I have not regretted getting it one bit :D

I recently shopped for a small sub too. My short list was Rel Q150, Velodyne SPL 800 (1000 was to tall), Carver Knight Shadow, and the Earthquake SuperNova MKIV-10. All of these are less than 12.5" high. 8" driver in the velo all the others are 10" and the EQ has a passive 10" as well:D. Don't...

VICTORY!! Thanks Alan, the cord is going OUT :D (wish I would have known earlier but I was so.. eager ;) ) I'm inwalling these cords so this really helps. :emoji_thumbsup:

Thanks Alan & Michael- I think I am getting it;) OK I need the 2 coax cables, I need the RCA cord from VCR out to the reciever (for surround sound,right?) but what about the RCA which goes OUT from Reciever to IN VCR ? Do I really need it?? Alan, I can only change channels on the cable box never...

;) OK so the coax cables > cable box to VCR > and VCR to TV will stay! My question now is why the RCA cords from VCR to reciever and back? Do I get a better video/audio signal when I watch the VCR through the reciever as it then goes through these cords? Thanks

I'm sure there's a really easy answer but.... Why does my VCR need both coax in/out as well as composite video/audio in and out? It seems like a lot of cables for one component of my system. :confused: All my components currently run through the receiver. I am hoping to reduce the large tangle...

I have a pair of pro 100 cinemas a 200 center and 4 80's and am more than happy. I have a friend with the big bipolar towers and he loves them too. Excellent quality in a satellite speaker- gold 5 way posts, heavy cabinet, metal 1" tweeters and 5 1/4" drivers and put out a very clean sound...

Mark, Yes a sub wil make a difference. Generally smaller subs will need more power to do what a larger sub can do with less. Sunfire, Rel, Earthquake have good "small subs" as well as the two mentioned by Mike and Johnny. how small is small? how much $ do you want to spend?

Arron. I thought of that too. The room has a high ceiling (12.5 ft.)w/ no attic or space above which adds alot to the size. Also note the hardwood floor and that it's my second floor. These were big challenges to even getting rear speakers!! The room even has six sides with one end being open...

John you are right (of course) I'll contact Velodyne if it helps. I wish we could find a graph of the Rel I am curious as to cone size x amp output to see what's what. John any comments on the speed of the EQ? Remember for me it's 80% music but I also love a good explosion as much as anyone!

OOPS Yes, I meant cubic feet :D my whole house isn't even 3000 sq ft! The room is about 17 l x 15 w x 12.5 h with very hard surfaces and lots of glass by the seating area which you can't see in the photos. FWIW I just got back from the stereo shop:b and he didn't think 22" from tv would be a...
