Very, very cool Chris! I can't wait to see it finished. :) ------------------

Patrick, congrats on you HT Forum award. I just picked up another amp for my sub system, a QSC USA 900, it has a fan but the next smaller one down does not, the USA 400 200x2@4ohms or 400 bridged I am sure it can be had cheap if you look around. The QSC USA 900's fan is much quieter than...

Patrick ,the m-1400 has a fan, its kind of loud about the same as your computer power supply fan. I have mine sitting very low to the ground and after awhile it really is no big deal, youll never hear it at louder volumes, I can't hear mine at anything over 80dB.You'll get used to it after...

Try , http://www.fullcompass.com , you have to call for a quote, awhile back I was quoted $443 for the Crown CE1000 $637 for the Crown CE2000 Mackies tend to have less of a price break from what I have seen, this is because they are in demand and very popular, I paid $500...

Vince I feel like I just got scolded for not using an EQ, but thanks I will have to learn much more about acoustics then perhaps try an EQ, I will also match my system up as you recommend, Don't dog me now, I set up my system by ear and play with the knobs until it sounds good, its kind of...

Well to be honest, I usually don't trust an amplifier's input pad, and don't use it unless I absolutely have to! So, I would personally use the Mackie with the input knobs turned WIDE OPEN, and let your preamp have control. >>>>>> There is way too much bass if I do this, I usually keep the...

I would personally be less interested in a voltage metering than just a basic nominal output test: 1) Hook you your receiver subwoofer pre-amp output to your mackie amp. 2) Disconnect your sub speakers from the amp [just to be safe]. 3) Set the volume to 50% (high noon if it is an analog...

Thanks for the informative post Vince, just to let you know my Sony 555ES analog outputs are rated at 2v into 1K ohms, while the Mackie's input is 1.23V into 4ohms, a difference of about 3 tenths of an amp, or the Sony does have a higher voltage but has more resistance. This all means that...
