Hey Mike. HTT was a great site back in the day. Wish I didn’t lose touch with a lot of guys there. I was a mod and I even won the Pioneer 563A you put up. Bru.
I have some quality pieces, but my avr is lacking. After buying many avr's, I gave up once HDMI came on the scene. I did purchase a Onkyo refurb TX-NR414 a year or so ago,but it doesn't quite match or have enough power. Being on a budget and two kids to put through school, a new avr is last on...

I have my comcast HD box on my unit with no issues at all. the sony enclosures are pretty solid. I have not felt any sort of heat issues of either unit. now what I wouldnt do is stack the sony player on the tv box.
remember, those speakers you auditioned will sound totally different in your house. also, don't confuse crytal clear with bright. not saying the SVS speakers are brighter but sometimes less is more and the B&W just might be warmer which is a very good thing when it comes to 2-ch music.
I was going to mention his room, but I think SVS CS chimed in with help for that. yes , yes, yes and yes for everything greg recommended. I didn't catch that his speakers weren't apart at equal distance or height. that IS a big no no and as greg said, will not help imaging at all. another...
ya, I have heard of the use of pro tools. have read alot about music and the mastering, mixing and technics online. I try to understand why its done today. wasn't pro tools being used at the end of the 80's ? or something like that ? it is a shame tape isn't used anymore, but I heard even with...
my system's didn't cost alot if anything at all. my main vintage amp is a low end Integrated Kenwood KA-400 (free on craigslist). only 45WAC but it doesn't screw with the music. I own three different Onkyo theater amps and not one can touch my vintage low end amp for sound quality on old...
