I'm considering moving to Phoenix soon.
Anyone have any suggestions on a "nice" neighborhood to look for an apartment? I'm hopefully going to be attending ASU at Tempe shortly after I get down there; so proximity to the campus is a plus.
Any input about Phoenix, related to this exact topic or...
Just received my R-963! Woohoo!
However, it is *black*, not silver as I've seen in every online picture of it. Anyone know if this is a newer revision, or...?
Once I get it hooked up and play around with it a bit, I'll post a preliminary review :)
Should arrive in about 5-7 days, cant wait! I'm upgrading from a $250 3-year old Pioneer (dolby digital, no DTS), think I will notice an improvement in sound quality? :D
There is a definite lack of good information on this receiver in this forum, so I will post a basic review of this unit...
I'm considering picking up one of the new Onkyo 600's when they come out next month; however, I have the opportunity to purchase an Integra 6.2 right now for a very reasonable price. The only difference that I can discern (a center surround channel is not important to me at all) is the DAC for...
Still searching for a good dipole/ribbon based speaker, and I ran across these:
These have got to be the best looking speakers I've ever seen. Anyone heard them? I've been looking at Maggie MMGs, but these might be worth the extra cash!
Thinking about getting some of those wonderful Magnepan MMGs, and I'm pretty sure that my old receiver will not handle them. Here is what I am looking for:
- Great sound quality. My usage is about 70% music, 30% HT.
- Enough wattage to push the power-hungry MMGs (like 87db sensitivity, I...
My previous setup:
Optimus PRO-CS5 center channel (Linaeum dipole ribbon tweeter)
2 Optimus LX-5 surrounds (Linaeum dipole ribbon)
2 Optimus LX-10 towers (long-discontinued tower versions of the LX5's, same tweeters)
SVS 20-39PC
This is a quite inexpensive, overall well-performing matchup...
I'm in the market for some very small speakers to serve in a 5-channel setup (preferably going to get all 5 of the same speaker). Since I have an SVS 20-39, I have no real need for big floorstanders, nor will I have the room for them. My setup is used for about 60% music, 40% HT. With the...
Are the Toshiba 34x92's (34" Flat-screen direct view) still dirt cheap up there? I thought I remember reading a post that these were like $700-$1000 cheaper in CA than their US counterparts. I might be taking a trip up to Toronto sometime soon, and I might have to pick one up.
