    Instead of an Outlaw 950 I'm buying an Audi...

    The Mach 1000 has 2+ subwoofers on the right and left side of the trunk... something like 10"+ subs... And I think larger amps... which hung down... I had a Mach 460 in my 99 Mustang... and the new 460 in my 02 GT sounds better... But it is a new in dash model (6 stack in the dash)... I thought...

Then my family reminded me that my paycheck comes 60-70% from Ford, GM, or Chrysler... And we do do some buisness with VW Mexico... So I ended up back...

    I know there is a very very very long thread on this... but, I've sent 2-3 e-mails to onkyo on this subject... and they have yet to respond to me... I love the amp, but really, I wish I returned it right away when this problem started, seeing I only had the amp for 3 weeks when all the...

    I am selling a Power Amp (specs below)... The guy that is interested in the Amp has asked me... "Can this amp drive two subwoofers???? I want to have crossfiring subs. I have the matching KR-X1000 receiver." I'm assuming that he would take the "pre out" for the sub from receiver... and...

    Onkyo595 audio drop out, should I worry?

    Sould we start assuming that it's the encoding issue? And by possibly thinking about getting another DVD player to replace the Panasonic RP56, this might solve the problem... But then again... Another problem might come up... I might just have to hold out and wait... Bill

    Panasonic DVD placment... On top of Onkyo 595? Ok? Bad?

    Well, the cable box is as wide as the DVD and Receiver... But... NONE of them are the right depth!!! Unfortunatly, we don't live in a Ideal world... Ever notice that Onkyo and Kenwood (and other's) put DVD's on top of their receivers when taking photos for advertisments and brochures...

    THANKS!!! Got My Receiver, Speakers, and DVD...

    It's definatly tough buying a reciever... Even the place that I bought the Receiver and Speakers from didn't have EITHER the Kenwood 509 or the Onkyo 595 hooked up to them... I heard the speakers to a $1500-$2500 Kenwood... But, Luckly The Great Indoors had the Jamo's hooked up to a Onkyo 595...
