Hi, I'll send you an e-mail.

I would check out accessories4less.com on prices for Marantz as well. I don't know how comfortable you are with refurbished gear, but they have the 7500 for $699 and the 8500 for $1099. I'm pretty sure they all have one year warranties. No matter what you decide, I think that Marantz makes a...

I'd like to buy the Trivial Pursuit game and have sent you an e-mail. Thanks!

I'm not an expert and there are plenty here that know a lot more than me, but I would not use those parts together. It is almost never a good idea to use an "off the rack" crossover. Those RS woofers you're looking at are quite nice and could be used to make some really good sounding speakers...

Hi, I am considering a projector and have found that for under/around $1000 I could get one of the most recent DLP projectors at 854x480 resolution(Infocus 4805 or Optoma H31). I could also get an LCD projector that's a generation old and has 1280x720 resolution(Sanyo PLV-Z2). Which would be a...

I would re-affirm the suggestion to go to head-fi and do some research. With that said, I have a pair of Sennheiser HD-580s and I really like them. I got them new from some store on e-bay for about $130. If you want to stay under $100, I would suggest the Grado SR-60s.

I apologize, I've found the answer to my question and these aren't quite what I'm looking for. Consider this a free bump. Thanks!

Hi Gil, Wow, this is from a while ago. First, let me highly recommend GR-research and their speakers. The speakers are of high quality and the service that Danny Richie gives you is exceptional. I suspect that if you do go with GR-research you will be quite satisfied. As to the sonicaps, I...

Danny, You'd be willing to trouble shoot for me? I think I will definitely take you up on that. I'll send you an e-mail.

Brian, First, thanks for your reply. I definitely appreciate it. I've read your reply a couple of times and I'm not quite sure that I understand what you're saying. >>Resistance across capacitors is infinity, and inductors is

Thank you all for your replies. I'm sure that my poor soldering has caused trouble, but I did put the speaker wire to just the tweeter terminals and the tweeter played so I assume that it's alright. As for the measuring, I hooked the speaker wire to the binding posts and played music at a...

Thanks! What are the advantages/disadvantages of suction versus the braid?

Hello, I built a pair of GR-research AV-1s and it turned out that one of the tweeters wasn't working. I actually didn't notice it for awhile because I had kind of funny speaker placement and the working tweeter was closer to me. This was the first time I'd tried building speakers, and the first...

Hi, I just wanted to check here before I start bothering the warranty people. I have a Marantz 6200 receiver that was purchased refurbished. I have been using it for awhile at my apartment at school. I just have 2 speakers so I was just using stereo to listen to music, movies, etc. The right...

Is your 80 GB WD hard drive the one with 8mb cache or 2 mb? Thanks!

I just wanted to bump this and say that I have this receiver and it's quite good. It isn't the newest, but it has DD and DTS and it's got quite a nice amp section for it's price range. This is a great way to begin your home theater.

I'm a poor college student too. Over Christmas break I built a pair of GR-Research AV-1s and they are fantastic. If you can build speakers yourself, I would definitely do that. If you're willing to buy internet direct, you have quite a few good options. We've got some Norh 4.0s at home and...

Ok, you have $1000-$1100. Here's what I would do to get a good improvement and also allow for upgradeability. I would get the SVS woofer of your choice and some decent bookshelves. Use the bookshelves for your fronts. Then, when you want to upgrade again, you can move the bookshelves to the...

Hi, I have a pair of HD 580s and a Marantz SR 6200 receiver and the sound is really good. I'm sure that it could be better with a separate headphone amp, but I am quite satisfied.

Sorry, double post.

I'd definitely go with the Atoms. I've heard them and they are really nice speakers. I'd also recommend 4 atoms instead of 2 Titans and 2 micros. That way you'll have a more continuous sound with your surrounds. Also, the Titans main advantage over the Atoms is more bass, and you've got that...

This Christmas I got a Marantz SR-6200 receiver and made a pair of GR-Research AV-1s. While they aren't high end, I'm really pleased with both. The digital source I have is my older, less than reliable Sony DVD player. It doesn't play most brands of CD-R and won't play any sometimes. It also...

Hi, I'm in the process of building my first set of speakers, GR-Research AV-1s. I've almost got the boxes built and am about to attempt to assemble the cross-overs. I have two questions: 1. Is it advisable to glue the capacitors, inductors, etc. to a board or something or can I just stick them...

I ordered some headphones from them (actually their e-bay store) and I was quite satisfied.

I'm about to purchase some speakers and I just want to make sure I'm not missing anything. I'm a college with not a whole lot of money so I'm getting stuff in steps in order to get stuff that's a little better. I just got a Marantz SR-6200 receiver and I'd like to get a pair of speakers. It's...

I've sent you an e-mail about the Marantz.

Of the receivers you have locally, and considering the budget you have, I would look at Denon and Yamaha. Some people say that Yamahas are bright, and that Paradigms are also bright so that it might not be a good match, but sound is really subjective. I would suggest that, since you're buying...

For what it's worth the RXV-440 is rated at 75W per channel from 20-20k. http://www.yamaha.com/cgi-win/webcgi...VR00010RX-V440 I'm looking at a new receiver in a similar price range and I'm considering both HK and Yamaha. My family has an older Yamaha receiver and I've been fairly impressed...
