I haven't been on HTF much these days, but I do have a good reference history here, as well as eBay and Anandtech. I'm looking to sell all 5 speakers for $3150 OBO plus split shipping from 48085. I'm willing to split up the system assuming that there are buyers for each piece. Individual prices...

So, just like the title says, I have a complete system for sale, shipping is an option as I retained all original packing materials (I do not look forward to repacking all these...). My reason...greed. :) I'm 22 and my tastes are always changing, and since I have the money right now, why not...

So, I'll be filling out my equipment (minus a projector...one last big hurdle) and the next thing to get upgraded is the DIY sub. I have it in what was originally supposed to be a temporary design...yeah. The sub's usually not on when I'm watching TV/listening to music as the bass from my...

I didn't know whether to post this here or in DIY...there's a fellow student near me that's selling a QSC RMX1450 for $225, which seems to be a good price. I was wondering if anybody knew why the spec isn't posted on the site for a 2-ohm bridged load? I assume that it's because the amp isn't...

(Mods, I don't know if this is allowed, but I have to try!) Basically, I'm looking to get a new Chrysler (Crossfire), and got a great quote on it, but that was with an EC #. For those of you who don't know, every Chrysler employee gets one EC # that he can extend to someone outside of his...

A friend of mine is debating between the 20s and the 40s and can't seem to find a pair of the 40s to audition. If anybody's in the area and would be available to demo them for a quick demo (he's spent a lot of time with the 20s, just needs to see if the difference is worth it), LMK! Thanks!

I just got my system all finally set up, and I am one happy camper. BUT, I can't seem to get my remote to learn the Lite-On commands, and there doesn't seem to be a preprogrammed code either. Has anybody done this succesfully, or have any suggestions? (Sorry to start another 3805 thread...

So, my friend has a bunch of stuff he’s accumulated and won over the years, that he’s now looking to sell. Money will go towards building a new HT for the new house. :) Pictures can be taken of anything you request, but I’d rather he not have to take pictures of a cardboard box. If it says it’s...

So, as soon as I sell off my studio 40s and these Quintets, I can finally get myself a real surround system. Once again, I'm giving HTF first bite at these, so I'm asking for $125 for all three, plus shipping. I have references here, heatware under EvilYoda and eBay under EvilleMario...

So I'll be upgrading my system again in the near future, to a Denon 3805 and Paradigm Studio 60s/100s (haven't decided yet), so I'll have no need for my current hardware. The receiver's probably about 2.5 years old, but still powers the speakers with ease (and has a great sound too). The...

So our Denon rep was in the store a while ago and confirmed that Denon will be releasing/announcing an "affordable" multi-format DVD player with Denon-Link to hook up with the soon-to-be-released 3805. Anybody heard any more on this magical player? I was going to get a 3805 and 2200 in a...

So I'm just wondering if they'll be supplying a more affordable DVD player (with DVD-A and SACD support, obviously) with Denon-Link, since a 3805 will have the ability to accept that connection? I'm definitely picking up a 3805 as soon as it comes out, as I just got a job at the local hifi...

So basically I magically landed a sales job at the local store (Gramophone, if you're local to SE Michigan), so I'm really excited, being only 21 and having such a cool job. (It beats my office jobs) Now, I'm trying to absorb as much information as possible, between reading literature and...

So I'm just about ready to get going on my next sub design (Tempest + PE 250W), since I'm tired of this giant black contraption looking so out of place, but at least it works. I'm looking for some ideas on alternative approaches on how to finish the sub, either entirely, or just on the top...

I'm always in search of new DIY sites that I don't know about, as I always forget ones that I've visited before...so I was wondering what some of you more hardcore DIYers do for sites? I hope I'm not reposting, but I searched for "DIY websites", and I guess I couldn't be any more general :)...

I'm just amazed at how nice of a theater/office he had, and they didn't even stop on it. They bothered to show his "tv room", and spent more time on his desk in the back of the room than the entire theater. But nonetheless, I didn't know he was so well off...gorgeous house, nice theater...53...

So, now that the sub's back in working form, and hopefully will stay in such, I had a few nagging questions that I wanted to ask the good people of HTF: A.) w/o an SPL meter, should I be able to hear audible differences in the sub's output while changing the phase? (PE 250W plate amp). I have...

So I noticed that my sub wasn't hitting when I turned on the system this morning...I go to check the amp, and it won't turn on! I checked all connections, everything's good...I don't really touch it anyway. The switch from off->auto->on doesn't turn the light on at all! Any suggestions...

Didn't know where to make this thread, so this was my best guess... basically, I'm sick of having to go through my computer (winfast 2000XP tuner card) to get cable in stereo on my system. Apart from buying a descrambler box on ebay, are there any ways to get the audio signal to my receiver...

My apologies for the excessive numbers of threads these last few weeks, but everything's finished now, and I wanted to share. :D Speaker stands: 1, 2, 3 Flexy rack: 1, 2, 3 Sonosub (a little more rough than the others, but the bass is all that matters for now :)): 1, 2 The "whole...

Well, just finished the rack yesterday, and you can see some pictures of the final product here and here. I asked a question yesterday, but I'll rewrite it up here: should I have any structural concerns about the frame holding up a 27" TV? I don't doubt that the receiver and all will be...

So I finally got ahold of the enclosure for my Tempest, and everything is up and running mighty fine...but the thing's a beast (18" sonotube, almost 6' long), so I want to stand it up in the corner. With the ceiling being only a foot away, will that create any problems? And I'll just stick some...

So I have all the pieces cut and drilled, and soon to be sanded with a palm sanded that someone lent me (whew!)...and all that's left are the rubber washers and the finish. Where does one go to find these rubber washers, and specifically, around Detroit? Home Depot doesn't have them, neither did...

So yeah, before I go and do something stupid, I want to confirm which way is the right way to wire my Tempest to the PE250W amp. Is it like this diagram, or is it like this diagram. Yes, yes, newb question that I should be able to figure out myself, but with my luck lately, I'm not taking any...

So, I've decided that I will be very productive this week, and I did a bunch of stuff today, part of which, was buying a sheet of 3/4" MDF, and getting it cut to 23"*21" shelves for a flexy rack. Now, I was wondering, for those of you who have made a flexy, how far from the edge did you drill...

So I posted a thread in Computers/HTPC, concerning a "new" Radeon 8500 having problems outputting to a TV... So to test, I took the s-video cable, plugged it into my DVD player and plugged the end into the 320. (TV doesn't accept anything other than s-video) And no signal! The TV would go...

First off, I'm quite good with computers, so this is even more frustrating. :) I bought a cheap 8500 (ATI build) to replace a GF2, and the tv-out didn't work...initially, I couldn't even select the US or NTSC as a format, so I flashed the BIOS on the card and now I can. It looks like it's...

So I have a few trips coming up, and that gives me a good excuse to finally cave in and get an iPod...2nd or 3rd gen is fine (3rd is the new one, right?). I have a Maxtor 120 gig hard drive, ATA133, 8 meg cache (special edition) to trade, and I'd like it to carry a $150 trade value. In...

Just looking for some personal tips...I started spraying my stands yesterday and the one said came out okay...I just did the first layer on the other side, and maybe because of the lighting I couldn't see too well, but it had much more "running" of the paint than yesterday evening. What's...

I've checked through PE, and don't really like their selection as it's quite limited...any suggestions as to where I can find more feet/spikes for the stands? Not much on eBay either. TIA.
