Is AVIA still seen as the front runner? I know that AVIA Pro is coming out at $400 bucks and Im not looking to pay that much. Nothing more expensive than $50. Thanks!

Looking to pick up an AVIA disc new or in good shape and a RS Sound Meter. Let me know what you have. Thanks!

I plan on picking up this player to match with my Denon 3802, JM Lab Chorus speakers (x5) and SVS 25-31Pci. My question is would I loose quality by connecting this with the Acoustic Research interconnects available at Best Buy or should I upgrade to nicer cables such as the one from...

Thinking of picking up 3 pair of Tara Labs 300i interconnects to go from my Pioneer 563a to my Denon 3802. Any experience with these cables? Hows the quality?

Ill be hooking my Xbox and Pioneer 563A DVD player up to my reciever and am planning on using the available component connections. I have read that the 3802 has had problems with component switching of HDTV. Would I be better off hooking the DVD player directly into the TV and possibly using...

I understand the cost will be greater, Im just trying to weigh the cost vs improvement of component cables. What would you recommend for a good set of budget component cables?

Im planning on pulling the trigger on a Pioneer 563A sometime this week and was curious as to whether or not I should use component cables or a S-Video cable since my 27" Toshiba is not HD. Will there be any noticible difference? Thanks

I'm planing on building a flexy tv stand to hold my 27" TV, reciever, dvd, xbox, vcr, etc and was wondering if anyone could offer any tips or advice? If you guys have any pictures of your stands, please post them. Thanks for the help, Chase

Yep, as Brian said I purchased some JMLab Chorus speakers in Austin this past weekend. As soon as everything arives I will write a review for you guys. Thanks again!

I agree with the recomendation to upgrade to the c-7 if you can afford it. By comparing the two I prefered the 7 by a wide margin. If it were me I would go with a combo of C-7's and C-1's. Good luck

Yep, its about time actually. ;) I was in Austin over the weekend and auditioned them with Brian Kurtz at Sound Mind Audio. Brian was extremely helpful. A wonderful person to deal with. I must have spent close to 5 hours auditioning with him. I highly recommend checking him out if you are in...

I actually just purchased a set of 5 Chorus 706's for my apartment. They should be in sometime next week. I found them to be the best I auditioned in the price range. I picked them over the following: PSB Image 2B Energy C-3 Paradigm Mini-Monitor Paradigm Studio 20's B&W 601 and...

Guys, Axiom has new stock in the factory outlet and the M22Ti's can be had for $340 shipped here to Texas w/ no tax. Paradigm Studio 40's on the other hand can be had from a local dealer for $800 before tax before haggling. My question is this: For a college apartment setup, would it be...

Thought maybe I could catch some of the Austin guys attention by posting here. Ill be in Austin this weekend and I am looking to audition speakers. Im helping a friend move into his apartment at UT so Ill be there most of the weekend and Monday. Im really interested in Paradigm, but would like...

Hey Guys, Ill be in Austin this weekend helping a friend move in to his apartment at UT and will have some time to auditon speakers. Right now Im looking at getting some Paradigm Studio 40's, 20's and a CC. Ive never heard PSB so I would like to hear those while Im in town as well. I live just...

Big 12 football is it for me. In most pre-season polls half of the Big XII comes into the season ranked top 25. This season my team (Texas A&M) should be able to suprise most people. We've been picked as the 4th best defense (go Wrecking Crew) and actually have a decent looking offense for...

Any other thoughts?

Still looking for more offers.

YGM on the 40's and the CC

Does anyone know a date for the v3's yet? Rumors have been saying that the v3's will be a little more expensive than the v2's. Im actually looking to pick up a set of Studio v2's - Studio 40's/20's and a CC. If anyone is upgrading and wants to drop thier v2's on me, send me some mail ;)

Hey guys, I'm looking for deals on a setup such as this: (front) Studio 40's (center) Studio CC (rear) Studio 20's or 40's depending on price All should be v2 as well. I'm not too concerned with the finish. I figure black would be easiest since it would be the cheapest and easiest to...

Keir, yes, All Star AV is where I auditioned the Paradigm speakers. I will be using a Denon 3802 to drive my speakers, it sure would be nice to have one of those Anthem amps though. Thomas, I would love to hear your setup. 40's all around is definantly what I would do if I could find a nice...

Someone must have an opinion???

Well, while auditioning the Mini-Monitors at a local dealer I did something I really should not have done. I stepped into the Paradigm Reference room. The salesman had just installed a new Anthem amp and was listening to 7 channel music to see what he thought. I sat down and listened with him...

Forgot to add the following: Room size: 12' x 15' x 8' Sub: SVS 25-31PCi Taste: 40% music/ 2 Movies / 40% TV and PS2

I visited a local dealer and really enjoyed the sound of the B&W speakers they had to offer. I got a price estimate on the 303's since I thought those would be the ones within my budget. Now I have decided to splurge a little bit and upgrade to the 601's. Here are my questions: Should I go...

So exactly which axiom models lack the low pass filter? I was considering either the m22 or the m3's all the way around and that might have some impact on my choice.

Guys, another member just pointed me to this thread from my questions about GR Research. Im actually working on my first home theater setup right now, after all, Im just a poor college student. Will you guys just be comparing pre/pros or will you be auditioning different speakers as well. I just...

I had actually thought of that and looked up exactly where Iowa Park, Tx is on yahoo maps and from here its a little over 9 hours drive time. So, I basically have ruled that out. To bad he couldnt be located in Houston.

Im a little concerned that the AV1's with the Denon receiver may be too warm. I like clear highs, lots of treble. Would the Axioms pair up better with the Denon to produce this? Or should I not be concerned about the AV1's being too mellow?
