    My SPL Curve, how bad is this?

    Note that I have an SVS PC 20-39, so I should be able to get relatively flat response down to 20Hz or so.

    What might my next upgrade be?

    Hi guys, so I have a question about upgrading. Right now I consider my system to be well balanced, in that the components are of similar quality. Right now, I'm using Klipsch RF-3's as mains, an RC-3 as a center, RS-3's as surrounds, and an SVS 20-39PC subwoofer. I'm using the Denon AVR-3801 as...

I'm using a Denon AVR-3801 as an amp and a preamp. Clearly, these are not the world's best components, and upgrading...

    Power Problem

    Hi guys, I'm having a power problem here that I'm sure is highly unusual. Basically, I'm living in a 90+ year old frat house, and the electrical system here isn't particularly good. The problem I'm having is that the grounding on the outlets in my room doesn't work properly (there is some...

    S-Video Problems w/ Denon AVR-3801

    Hello, I have a question about hooking up a DVD player to this receiver using S-Video. I'm sure what I'm doing wrong is easy to fix, but I just can't figure out what the problem is. Basically, I have the DVD player connected by the S-Video cable to the DVD input on the receiver, and the...
