    Cabinet recovering help

    Good point on the ends of the plywood. I've been thinking of trimming the edges with wood. Just haven't decided whether to stick with the same type of wood or use a different color to contrast.

    Cabinet recovering help

    Polk SDA 1's. I don't have a woodworking shop but a guy from work is going to give me a hand. He suggested epoxy.

    Cabinet recovering help

    I'm getting ready to recover an older pair of speakers in some 1/4" oak plywood. Considering I epoxy the plywood to the original cabinet will it change the sonic signature much? The original covering is vinyl btw.

    FS: Sony DSC-S85 Cybershot Digital Camera

    I can't believe this camera hasn't sold yet. I own one and love it. There are lots of options available such as lenses, filters, etc. Is it still available? I may consider using it as a spare on the boat.

    Best pre/pro for $1000 new or used?

    Looking for some suggestions for my next processor. I like the B&K 30 but before I commit I wanted to get as many opinions as I can. My new processor must have a great music section. Thanks

    B&K 30 and Outlaw 950 owners question

    Bob, I run Polk SDA SRS's for the front which are pretty substantial speakers but down on the lowest freq's they are a little weak. I personally would never run ht or music that wouldn't take advantage of their full capabilities. The Denon processor I originally looked at crosses over the freq...

    Keep me in mind on the CS400 Dale.

    B&K 30 and Outlaw 950 owners question

    My Denon receiver won't enable the sub output as long as I have my front speakers set to "large" in the menu. That's not going to cut it now that I've purchased a sub. The 30 and 950 are 2 of my potential replacements and I was wondering how they operate as far as sub output. Thanks for the info...

    SVS placement from tv

    That is correct. I'd really like to find another CS400 so I could mount one on either side of my TV

    SVS placement from tv

    My 20-39 is supposed to be here in 2 days so I'm trying to find a place in my small (for the meantime) listening room. The best place I can come up with so far to get near a corner will put the driver about 32" from the lower left corner of my 36" Wega. I'm wondering if that'll be too close to...

    How's the B&K ref 20?

    I just got done looking at the outlaw and for the money it seems pretty decent. The only things that bothered me in the reviews was the hiss problem that's supposed to be fixed and so-so music reproduction by reviewers that had used some decent equipment. Music was rated as great by users that...

    CSU or PC+?

    Ok Ed. From your inputs and a quick email exchange with Tom at SVS I bought a 20-39PC+ that popped up on the B-stock list today. Come on UPS!

    How's the B&K ref 20?

    I went and tried to read some reviews last night on the 20 and there isn't that many around. It didn't get too high of a mark in 2 channel which turns me off. One "professional" reviewer said the difference between the 20 and 30 was quite significant in sound quality so I think I'll have to...
