Hi, I'll send you an e-mail.

I would check out accessories4less.com on prices for Marantz as well. I don't know how comfortable you are with refurbished gear, but they have the 7500 for $699 and the 8500 for $1099. I'm pretty sure they all have one year warranties. No matter what you decide, I think that Marantz makes a...

I'd like to buy the Trivial Pursuit game and have sent you an e-mail. Thanks!

I'm not an expert and there are plenty here that know a lot more than me, but I would not use those parts together. It is almost never a good idea to use an "off the rack" crossover. Those RS woofers you're looking at are quite nice and could be used to make some really good sounding speakers...

Hi, I am considering a projector and have found that for under/around $1000 I could get one of the most recent DLP projectors at 854x480 resolution(Infocus 4805 or Optoma H31). I could also get an LCD projector that's a generation old and has 1280x720 resolution(Sanyo PLV-Z2). Which would be a...

I would re-affirm the suggestion to go to head-fi and do some research. With that said, I have a pair of Sennheiser HD-580s and I really like them. I got them new from some store on e-bay for about $130. If you want to stay under $100, I would suggest the Grado SR-60s.

I apologize, I've found the answer to my question and these aren't quite what I'm looking for. Consider this a free bump. Thanks!

Hi Gil, Wow, this is from a while ago. First, let me highly recommend GR-research and their speakers. The speakers are of high quality and the service that Danny Richie gives you is exceptional. I suspect that if you do go with GR-research you will be quite satisfied. As to the sonicaps, I...

Danny, You'd be willing to trouble shoot for me? I think I will definitely take you up on that. I'll send you an e-mail.

Brian, First, thanks for your reply. I definitely appreciate it. I've read your reply a couple of times and I'm not quite sure that I understand what you're saying. >>Resistance across capacitors is infinity, and inductors is

Thank you all for your replies. I'm sure that my poor soldering has caused trouble, but I did put the speaker wire to just the tweeter terminals and the tweeter played so I assume that it's alright. As for the measuring, I hooked the speaker wire to the binding posts and played music at a...

Thanks! What are the advantages/disadvantages of suction versus the braid?

Hello, I built a pair of GR-research AV-1s and it turned out that one of the tweeters wasn't working. I actually didn't notice it for awhile because I had kind of funny speaker placement and the working tweeter was closer to me. This was the first time I'd tried building speakers, and the first...
