Thanks Robert. Never heard of PSA until now. With the kind of reviews and price tags, their Subs do look very promising. Are there any other brands in your opinion that could 'crush' the rest of my proposed Atlantic line-up for the same price?

Hi! Thanks to all those who helped me with their valuable inputs. I have more or less decided on what speakers I want for my Denon AVR 2311. I am presently leaning towards the following (although the budget would go somewhat beyond the targeted limit of $3000):-1. Front L&R: Atlantic Technology...

The reason why I wanted to know the approx. frequency response at -3dB is for setting the cross-over frequency if I am going to use these Technics as Front B on the Denon 2311.

So it has to be a completely new set of speakers including the fronts (I'll retain the Technics as Front B). Any idea as to what a frequency response of [35 Hz-35 kHz (-16 dB), 43 Hz-31 kHz (-10 dB)] would translate to at the standard -3dB?

I have just started the process of auditioning and so far I have checked out one store with a few on-walls & bookshelves from Atlantic Technologies, Monitor Audio, MK and Sunfire. Though I am not an audiophile, I could appreciate the difference in the centre, surrounds and Sub compared to my old...

Hi Sam! Nice to see you on this thread too (you've been of great help on my other post regarding replacement of my Technics Speakers for use with the Denon-AVR2311). The HTiB mentioned here is what I have in the bedroom. Here's the links to the system's specs/panel images:-...

Thanks Sam and Gene. Besides the technical stuff, when Sam says in simple words, "they sound like every other speaker of that vintage", I get a feel that these may not the best speakers to cling on to after over 15 years. Can I expect 'distinguishably better' sound quality than these from...

Thanks Gene. The amp plate sounds like a good idea! My present passive sub-woofer (Technics SB-W33) has the following specs:- Type : 1-way, 1-speaker bass reflex Speaker : 30 cm (12") cone type Impedance : 8Ω Input Power : 200W (Music) / 100 W (DIN) Output sound pressure level : 800dB/W (1.0)...

I have a 4 year old Sony DAV-DZ270 Home theatre which only supports Audio and Photos through its USB Port. It has one HDMI Out port (and No HDMI In) There is no support for playing videos/ movies through its USB. Is there any way to play Movies on a pen drive/ Hard Disk/ Digital Media Player...

I upgraded to the Denon AVR-2311 two-and-a-half years ago. I have so far continued using the speakers from my old system comprising of the Technics SB-A37 front speakers (floor standing) and the Technics SB-CSS70 centre and surround speakers. Unfortunately my Technics SB-W33 sub-woofer is not...
