    B&K Reference 50 and 200.7 with B&W 600 series

    I run a Ref 50 and Earthquake Cinenova Grande 5 channel amp with B&W speakers. My current setup is: HTM1 Center Channel Matrix 805's Left & Right Some NHT Dipoles as surrounds. I really like this setup, the speakers have never sounded better. However I intend to upgrade to Nautilus 804s...

    How do you feel...

    I fully agree with Shane, if your intention is to return the equipment this is unethical behavior. A 15% restocking fee is a (and IMHO) very low rental fee that should be higher. Stores are in business and like any business they need to make a profit. You are doing what you can by using this...

    5.1 system with 6.1 or 7.1 reciever

    Absolutley not, most people that have 6.1 or 7.1 hardware only are connecting a 5.1 system because of the additional expense, complexity and logistics of adding the additional hardware. The bottom line a 5.1 setup will be just fine and leave you head room to upgrade to a 6.1 or 7.1 system when...

    Rotel vs Cinenova grande vs B&K

    Hi Mike, I have the Cinenova Grande 5 channel, I am using it with a B&K Reference 50 Pre Pro, B&W Matrix 805's and a Nautilus HTM1 and some NHT's for my surrounds. Not only is the Cinenova a beast it's a fabulous amp too. Of everyone that I have seen on the newsgroups I seem to be the first...

    B&K Reference 50

    As Donnie said, it's blown way way way out of proportion. I have lived with the Ref 50 for about a year and didnt' even notice the sounds until I read about them here. For the money the Ref 50 simply cannot be beat. Don't let prejudices (mine included) sway your decision, go out and audition...

    Besides Outlaw, is there an American made reciever

    From B&K's website: "We're proud to say that everything we make is designed, engineered and manufactured at our Buffalo, New York facility." Although Outlaw is a US company I believe their manufacturing is done off shore.

    B&K or Sherbourn or Sim Audio

    I have a reference 50, HMT1 and at the moment Matrix 805's mated to a Earthquake Cinenova 5 channel. If you haven't heard of it I would recommend it, spec for spec it's very difficult to beat. On the off chance your are interested here is a link to a review...

    Cinenova 3 channel questions

    I think it's a good idea to contact them and see if they have any input. What are you using for a Pre/Pro, I don't think this has any bearing on it, I'm just curious.

    Cinenova 3 channel questions

    Looks like Ernest and I see things differently on the power up sequence. Ernest, if the noise comes when the amp is powered up wouldn't it make sense to power it up first? I think I see what you mean, the signal is going from the Pre/Pro to the amp and then to the speakers but if there isn't...

    Cinenova 3 channel questions

    Mat, Nope mine is pretty quiet. I leave it on 24/7 and only turn it off if I'm going out of town for awhile. Because mine doesn't have it I've never investigated on whether it's fixable. My fix would be to turn it on before your Pre/Pro.

    Cinenova 3 channel questions

    Andrew, I have had a Cinenova Grande 5 channel for almost 3 years, my guess is this is probably longer than anyone else on this forum has owned one. The Cinenova has a small but from all appearances loyal following, this is a terrific piece of equipment! Do searches on it and you will find...

    I just got my B&K 50......

    Reopening an old thread, well I finally pulled the trigger yesterday on a HTM1. On a whim I dropped by my dealer and he offered me a great deal. I normally don't drop that kind of money without some thought but heck it was an opportunity so I grabbed it. When I got it home and set it up, oh my...

    Proceed discontinued?

    There were some threads about this a few months back but as I recall the justification was the Proceed line was just getting too close in features and quality to the Mark Levinson line. The decision was made to to drop Proceed and concentrate on the high end, i.e. more profitable Levinson line.

    I just got my B&K 50......

    Hi Brian, Well get ready to part with more money, after audtioning both the HTM1 & HTM2 there was no contest the HTM1 wins hands down. I'm sure you will come to the same conclusion so congratulations in advance for your new center channel.

    I just got my B&K 50......

    Brian, I'm using B&W Matrix 805's and have been considering moving them to the back and upgrading to a HTM1 center and Nautilus 804's for my 3 front channels. Which Nautilus speakers are you using? Money is always a subject so I'm looking initially for a used HTM1 which I find are kind of...

    I just got my B&K 50......

    I have to agree with Terry. My experiences were similar, I had a RC5000 (Marantz version of Pronto TSU1000) and was fairly familiar with the software. When I received my Ref 50 & new remote I sold the RC5000 and started programing and yes it was a new learning curve. It did take longer for the...

    Reasonably Priced (about $100) Interconnect Cables???

    I only have one Blue Jeans cable (componet cable) and have to say I'm impressed with the value. Great quality, great service and I'm probably going to use them in the future.
