    dangerous to let projector lamp burn out?

    I am not sure but it seems from reading the manual that my infocus 4805 projector just shuts the lamp off after 3000 hours whether it is actually burnt out or not. Is this a case of deteriorating image quality over time? or is it dangerous to let a lamp run after 3000 hours of use?

    Bone-crushing lowend requirements?

    sounds like you need transducers to me. if you're going with pure speakers then feeling the bass = listening to loud bass. either that or boosting really low frequencies that are below audible range, which would take some doing.

    Axiom vs. Bose

    i would definately use the large setting. i think anyone advocating the small setting didn't realise that you're not using any subwoofer. the m22s will not play much of the lowest bass, but it won't hurt them at all to use the large setting and it will definately give a better response than...

    Cinema EQ. (Cinema Equalizer) question?

    I don't usually use it. But once i did enable it on a very poorly made dolby digital track from the movie (im ashamed to say) tremors 4. it seemed to tame the excessive sss sounds in the treble.

    Paradigm Atom V.2 vs. V3

    if you remove the plastic back plate of the speaker its very straightforward to get the driver out.

    Paradigm Atom V.2 vs. V3

    i have v.2 atoms and v.3 titans. their woofers look to use the exact same material. my v.3 cc-170 does have the metal cones though. not sure why they would not match the driver material among v.3 cc-170 and titans.

    Subwoofer pushed too hard?

    more often than not, it is a wallboard or other lose item near the sub that's making the sound. you might try moving the sub away from that wall and playing at the same volume to see if the rattle goes away or is obviously coming from somewhere else. at moderate volume the sub wouldn't rattle...

    Recommendations for musical bookshelfs under $300

    axiom speakers are very neutral and sound very nice for music or anything else. m2i's go for $255 per pair. i think the m3ti's are a bit over 300 but will give better bass response without a subwoofer. energy is another canadian company known for neutral good speakers.

    Bright vs. Warm Receivers

    If a receiver was designed to be either warm or bright, the engineers would probably try to hide it in the specs. A significant frequency aberration isnt desirable to most people and engineers know better than to try and design their amps to give an uneven response. I would just stick to finding...

    What do you use to power your Rockets?

    i have a denon 1604 and its plenty of power for my axiom speakers. they're only 87 dB efficient but i can get up to any level i would listen at (ref level is achievable). seriously, i don't think you would even need to upgrade unless you like to listen REALLY loud.
