I own the M5400-PM. I have observed that if all my equipment (attached to the M5400-PM) is turned off, the output voltage will drop to 114-115V. When I turn on the equipment...the output voltage will display 123V-125V. The input voltage stays steady at 125 volts. What is happening here? Is this...

With the improved drivers (12.3) in the PB12-Plus/2...I am wondering if there is a significant improvement in quality when stepping up to the PB12-Ultra/2. Prior to the 12.3 upgrade....the consensus was the Ultra gave a small, but noticeable improvement.....now I am wondering if the gap has...

I just helped my Brother-in-law hook up his 3rd SVS 25-31PC+. The first two were purchased about 3 years ago. The last one was purchased about 3 weeks ago. All subs positioned together. The interesting thing is that we had to run the phase 180 degrees out with the new sub. I think the new sub...

Does Brick Wall have any protection for Cable TV, Sat, and Phone line connections on any of their surge protectors? If not...how do I get the same level of protection for these components? Can't voltage spikes be transmitted along these pathways and cause damage to all interconnected...

If you are using the Axiom's in the back...why not go with the Axioms up front?

steve nn, Are you going to wait for Ed's review...or have you already pulled the trigger? You have lived with the Ultra...would be nice to hear your take on the Maestro!!!

Craig, Great review...would not have thought a single 15" could outgun (4) 12" drivers with 5X the power (Crown K2). The gunfights were quite similar to the effect we experienced in the 1812 Overture. Each shot could be felt as a hit in the chest. As good as the SVS B4+ was, the Maestro took...

Too expensive!

and that is exactly the point!!!!!!!

I can see your point...I'll keep my fingers crossed that everything continues to work perfectly. :)

No...they are not discontinued. They stopped selling them "mail order" because they were having problems with UPS damaging speakers. They still sell them through there "brick and mortar" stores. There is not a problem with parts availability....they have the parts...they just won't sell them to...

Subject: Warning To CSW customers!!!!! Cambridge Sound Works does not supply parts for the speakers they sell! My Letter to CSW customer service: I would like to start out by saying that my T500 speakers are performing flawlessly...no problems. This is a policy question that I have...

ooops..I typed too fast! I like the "one" box approach. If I buy just one PC-Ultra now, I may not get a second one down the road...probably should just pull the trigger on the PB12-Ultra/2. Did it exceed your expectations? The PB12-Ultra/2 may actually have more output/headroom from 25hz and...

You went with the PB12-Ultra/2over the PC-Ultra? I was thinking along those lines myself...but for $300.00 more you could get (2) PC-Ultras and have native tuning down to 20hz. I keep hanging up on this...maybe not a big deal. I sold my PB12-Plus/2 to my Brother-in Law.The upgrade I was refering...
