    new towers what do i need to start?

    Highly recommend you do as Dan discussed. Get a kit and build your own crossover. The parts in the kit he mentioned are of excellent quality for the cost. Another good kit to try out would be the Dayton 2-way from parts express. Again, excellent value.

    Anyone know how to make fiberglass enclosures?

    You need to build a wooden frame, then stretch an old t-shirt around the wood frame. Paint the t-shirt fibreglass resin, then build up with a couple layers of fibeglass mat. I then like to add long strand fibreglass bondo to the inside to build up to about 3/4" thick. Very dead enclosure! I...

    Can anyone vouch for Kimber PBJ cables?

    I would look into products by Ascendant Cables. Dont know if you can get them in the US, but they are available from Link Removed in Canada. Unbeleivable cables for the money.

    Do all satellite receivers require a phone line?

    The phone line is only needed for Pay per View. Thats it. The satellite companies will tell you it needs to be plugged in as this is a way they can detect people who have illegal "pirate" cards in their system. Yes you can still get Pay per View without the phone line plugged in, all you need...

    AudioQuest cables

    I agree 100% Lee. I simply meant $8000 cables are not for me. I dont have that kind of disposable income. But if I did, Im sure $8000 cables would be on my shopping list. Many high end shops will aloow people to borrow cables to evaluate in their system. I feel everyone should take advantage...

    AudioQuest cables

    David, I too have read the stuff at axiom but still have yet to read a report. All I have seen is hearsay on the forum. But, as I stated earlier, from my own experience I have and can hear a difference between cables, these are very slight differences mind you. What I was trying to point...

    AudioQuest cables

    Chu, You repetitively post that there is no sonic or visual difference between audio and video cables of equivalent build quality. The reason I post this rebutle, is not to start a flame war. I just want to post an opposing opinion so some of these people will continue to experiment and try new...

    Should I get my DVD player cleaned at Best Buy?

    My take on extended warranty protection: During my engineering courses in university, I took a statistics course which included some reliability calculations. Something called the "bathtub curve" statistically predicts the failure rate for a given product, and from what I was told, holds...

    Monster Cable Prices in Canada

    If Monster does not have a canadian distributor, local stores would be buying small shipments from monster USA. Brokerage fees can kill you on small orders which could be part of the reason for extremely high prices in Canada.

    Where to buy black cable sheath?

    Wirecare.com is almost double the cost for PET that some other suppliers online are. Maybe you should relook your agreement with Wirecare so they can become competitive with other online retailers that will also cut to small lengths. Heatshrink.com 1/4"PET $0.28 per foot Wirecare.com 1/4"PET...

    Question about speaker cable lengths

    Thanks for the insight chu, I was previously unaware that the opposing flows would cancel the inductance created by the coil. I beleive it was here that I heard the previous information.

    Question about speaker cable lengths

    By coiling wire you are creating an inductor, your best bet is to trim it to length with about a foot or 2 of slack. Dont coil large amounts of speaker wire.

    DIY Cables and Interconnects

    I personally beleive that there is nothing better than bare wire for your speakers. Bananas and spades only add an additional crimp/solder/break in the wire. I beleive bananas and spades only purpose is for convienience. I dont understand how people can say that the connectors prevent...
