I just received my new ATI 3007 last week and though it's not fully broken in yet it defintely bests the Cinepro 2K6 I had. It's fully differential from input to output and my soundstage and lower end have never been better. I can't wait to this baby is fully broken in. Mike

Calvin, I have the same situation but my kitchen is behind the listening position. I did not want to put in-ceiling speakers in because if I ever moved I wanted to take the rears with me and not have a lot of patching to do. So, I bought the JMLab Sibs and hung them from the ceiling behind the...

Hey Rob, Between your PB2-Ultra and my PB2+ Chandler should be rocking. If you want to show it off in person let me know I'd love to come by and see it and your welcome to come by and see mine. Enjoy! Mike

Stephen, I guess the Omnistats sounded tinny and weak. Maybe it was the room or setup but I was not really impressed. I guess I'll have to listen to the Sibs and go back and listen to the Omnistats again just to be sure. My only problem is deciding if the PowerPoints will be worth the extra...

Stephen, Somewhat in between in price would be the JMLabs Sibs. These are the others I'm considering if they really do hang on the ceiling. I need to go back to my dealer to listen and make sure they can be hung from the ceiling so this is another option. I did not like the OmniStats at all...

Stephen, I have not had the PowerPoints in my system but I have heard them and they are pretty awesome. But you're right they are very expensive in my opinion. I would love to have 2 to hang on the ceiling for my rear speakers but I'm looking for something a little cheaper and who knows maybe a...

Todd, I've also been looking at 7 channel amps in the $3000 range and have come up with the Sherbourn 7/2100, the Adcom GFA-7807 and the ATI 2007. Any of these amps would be great and I haven't sold my current amp yet, but I will be making a decision on one of these within the next couple of...

Thank you all for your comments and eventhough I still have to make the decision it's nice to have other's thoughts. Mike

Charles and Allan, Thanks for the replies. I'm still waiting for ATI users to chime in here. Mike

Thanks guys for the replies. I know there were a lot of Sherbourn users out there. Charles and Allan: Are you using the balanced connections between the AVM20 and the Sherbourn or the RCA connections? Did you have trouble hooking the cables up as the inputs are on the bottom of the amp...

George, Thanks for clarifying the 2 cord issue. Having choices is not all that great in some cases. I don't think I could go wrong buying any of these amps but it does not make the final choice any easier. The Sherbourn is the cheapest and I do like the monoblock design and the 2 power cords...

Allen, Thanks for the info. The Sherbourn amps are the only ones I have had a chance to have in my previous system, the mono blocks, and was just curious how cool and quiet the new amps ran. Anyone else care to comment, and yes Iam reading the Adcom amp thread. Mike

George, I just downloaded the GFA-7807 manual and it does not show 2 power cords. The only amp I have seen with 2 power cords is the Sherbourn. Are you sure about what amp your friend has? And your right about it being a heavy monster, almost 120 pounds. Mike

Hello all, I'm in the process of simplifying my system for my wife so I'm getting rid of my 2 and 6 channel amps and buying a 7 channel amp, now that there are some good ones out there. The Sherbourn 7/2100 has been at the top of my list for awhile but looking around today I found the ATI...

I was wondering if anyone has the newer seven channel amp, the GFA 7807? I'm in the process of simplifyng my system for my wife and I'm going from a two-chanel and five-channel amp to a seven channel amp. The Adcom fits the budget and the qualifications. What I want to know is does the amp run...

Barry, Yes, welcome to the Anthem club. It's nice to see others in the Phoenix area who have the Anthem posting on this forum. I love my Anthem and Im sure I will be enjoying it for many years to come. Enjoy:) :) :) :) :) Mike

Mike, I also have Cinepro amps in my system. I am selling them to simplifiy my system for my wife though, and I will miss them dearly. I have the 2K6III for sale, if interested PM me. They are detailed, powerful amps and I have never had one single problem with them. You can usually find used...

Jason, I also have the Yamaha S2300 DVD player and have noticed clicks and pops with the new version 2.12 that I did not have with version 2.10. I was going to revert back but I will now contact Nick and have him send me the update he sent you. Thanks for posting here as I thought I was one of...

Dan, I have the Diva's, 6.1, C3 and R3's but I don't have the Sherbourn amp. Right now I have a Cinepro 1KSE driving the 6.1's and a 2K6III running the center and surounds. For the money I don't think I could do much better and I enjoy listening everyday. I have been thinking very seriously...

I also have the PB2+ in a room that's 15x30x10 and has several other small openings and the sub is more than enough to give me all I want a more. I use to have a pair of CS 20-39's and the PB2+ matches it plus some. I will never own another sub unless I buy a second PB2+;) ;) ;) And since...

Ed, Yes it is safe for you to do it. I live in Chandler and if you need any help just emai me at [email protected] and I'll come help you if necessary. All you need is a laptop and to download the software and the rest is a piece of cake. I've done 3 upgrades on the unit and had no...

I'm glad to see the Anthem thread is still alive and strong. I was without my Anthem for 5 weeks while it was sent back for a fix of my DSP board. Fortunately, I was out on vacation for 3 of those weeks, but the week without it when I got back was almost unbearable. No movies, no music, my amps...

I would second, or third the T-shirt idea. Especially for those of us who are already SVS owners and are buying again. I saw a guy with an SVS T-shirt on at my local HT dealer and wondered why I've never gotten one. Fo they sell T-shirst on their website? I guess I'll have to check it out. And...

Michael, Thanks for you thoughts. Are you saying to set the sub to a higher crossover or all the other speakers to a higher crossover? My subs right now are in the same corner behind my front left speaker and I don't have any localization as far as I can tell. Mike

Hello fellow Anthem owners, I always follow this thread as an owner but do not chime in much as Michael M. has things pretty much under control:D I was reading a few of the comments on bass control. Maybe someone can give me some advice. I have dual SV 20-39 CS's with the Samson amp. Iam using...

Alan, I agree with Mark and Chas. I prefer the Analogue-DSP mode. I have a Yamaha S2300 DVD Audio/SACD player. I used to have the Sony 555ES SACD player and the Yamaha is actually quite good in my opinion on both DVD Audio and SACD discs. Regular CD playback in also very good. I do run all...

Adam, Just my $.02. This past summer I was going through the same buying process you are going through now. I bought the Anthem for the following reasons: 1. Balanced connections 2. Zone 2 and 3 outputs 3. Local Dealer who gave me a good deal 4. Ability to do software upgrades at home...

Wayne, One other suggestion is to look at markertek.com. I bought some XLR cables to go from my Anthem AVM20 to my Cinepro amps and these fit inot my price range nicely and they are very good as far as I can tell. Yo can also order them in different colors but be sure to call in your order if...

Brandon, Thanks for responding to my questions regarding the Sibs. My only other concern would be that my amp is rated at 250Wpc into 8ohms and I think JMLabs recommends an amp no grater than 75 Wpc. I don't know if this would be a problem or not during movies with lots of bass and action in...

Jason, Thanks for that information. That sounds very reasonable even if they were $350 each. Now if I can just find out if they can be mounted on the ceiling:frowning: Mike
