    TV's, video games and shadows!

    I have a 36" flat 100HZ CRT Panny. I also have an Xbox. What I don't want is burnt-in 'shadows' from where I've been playing video games from some of the static images displayed on computer games... There is a warning on my Panny instruction manual saying that they will not be held...

    Does the SVS PCi sound better than the CS series?

    "If you have no plans to add a second passive unit, I would stick with the PCi..." I have a 20-39PCi on order... depending on the result, I may buy a second unit. Two questions: - Should I have gone for the CS in the first place? - How well matched would adding a 20-39PC+ to my...

    Svs Pc+ Pricing

    I understand that using if you're going to go down the dual SVS sub route it is advisable to use the same model. For those of us who already own a 20-39PCi for example - how well a match would adding a 20-39PC+ and sitting the next to each other be??

    SVS Subs

    I auditioned a RELQ400E yesterday. The sub was too slow moving. Okay - when the source demands low frequencies - the REL was fantastic. A very powerful sound with seemingly little effort from the REL - but the higher bass frequencies were so much quieter. - it made the sound very disjointed...

    SVS Subs

    I am very close to either purchasing a REL Q400E - or the 16-46PCi - (I can't hear the SVS before I buy as I'm in the UK) I would be very interested in your comments if you are able to compare these two subs - or the Q400E and any SVS sub ?

    How SQUARE is a SQUARE room?

    Okay - so if a room is perfectly square, or have one dimension exactly twice another - you may encounter resonances that may colour the sound. But just how 'perfectly square' does a room have to be? Are we talking within a half a foot? An inch? What about if the room in question is pretty...

    Thanks for you mail Ron -- my reply is on it's way over! Hi again Tom, I haven't any pre-determined plans, although I was intending to use the subwoofer preout on the Denon to hook up the sub... I will experiment with just about all options and see which sounds the best to me. I was...

    Will an SVS 16-46PCi be okay in.....

    I am in need of some good advice/opinion. I am looking for a good sub - and am seriously considering the 16-46PCi. It's a little more difficult for me because I live in the UK so cannot demo before I purchase (as there is no UK outlets so I'll have to get one shipped accross). I am after a...
