Greeting, I have recently moved and may have to down-side my speakers because of room layout. I have Reference ADP's, but they are too large, and no place to mount, for the sides. I can mount them on the back wall, but I don't believe that was recommended. I have a B&K Reference 200X5...

I have a 2-channel bedroom setup I am currently messing with. I have a NAD receiver and a pair of the new KEF Q3's. I love the sound of the KEF's, but I feel I am missing a bit in the mid-to-lower range. What we be the best improvement for my 2-Channel listening? I thought about moving up to...

Is 2-channel SACD's noticeably better than a regular CD through Mid-Fi components. Lets say Paradigm 40's, Kef Q-series, or Von Schweikert VR-1's and NAD power? Or is the 5.1 versions the only worth-wild purchases? I have just picked up a SACD player and have it my bedroom's 2-Channel setup...

Has anyone ever seen this? They have a couple neat applications. What do you think? Popular Science

I have my main system consisting of Paradigm studio series biwired because it was highly recommended. However, I am setting up an audio only, no HT, for my bedroom. I am running the new KEF Q3's powered by NAD. I had every intentions to biwire, but in an effort to keep cost down the thought...

I not sure what happened with the first post, so let me try this again. I am looking to finally add some budget speakers to my bedroom system. I just picked up a demo NAD t751 for $300, so I would be pushing about 60w per channel. My trouble is choosing the speakers. I only want the two...

I have a Yammie 995. I was looking at the NAD, B&K, and Parasound amps (under $800, and some used). However, some of them have 60-85 watts vs. the Yammie "published" 100 watts. Would I actually be gaining anything from a purchase like this? I guess the real question is how much power from a...

I am considering replacing my older Yamaha 995 with a HK 520. Would this be a downgrade in any of these categories? HT Music (I don't think it could possibly be worse) Power (noticeable) Thanks in advance.

I am trying to make a move into the separate arena. Slow but moving. My current setup is a yamaha RX-V995 and Paradigm Studio 40, CC, and Atoms. At the moment I am most dissatisfied with the 2 channel music. The Home Theater portion sounds OK but I am sure it could be better. I was looking at...

I love my Paradigms, but the studio ADP's are extremely large. Also, the thought of spending 800-1k for a set of rear surrounds seems a bit much for me. Another point is the "happy medium" the Axiom quadpolar design seems to have in the debate over monopole vs. dipole. If I was to mix the...

Currently my Left and Right fronts are about 9.5 ft apart. Is this too far, too close, or juuusst right:) The reason I ask is I am in the process of upgrading my subwoofer,and I am trying to decided on a placement. It will either go between the two, or to the outside of the left one (in a...

I am torn between these two subs. I am trying to find out from other more knowledgeable members, reasons for or against- other than the price difference. I would like to get the SVS 20-39PCi, but the WAF with the taller tube is not happening. Oh, about a 70/30 HT/Music split with Studio 40's...

The link provided is to an ebay auction where the individual is selling a pair of Paradigm Focus bookshelf v.3. Does anyone know anything about this new line of paradigm speakers? Are they replacing the monitor series? The seller claims they are the replacements for the mini-monitors and will...

What kind of sound difference can I expect from the Rava SE vs. the Dharman? They are in the same price range, so I am just wondering if there would be a detectable difference. I have Paradigm studio series, and use about 60/40 HT/Music. I know this is a big SVS forum, and I am still...

If they are different, do they sound that much different? Just curious. Thanks in advance, DJ

I believe the price was $2,200. They had rosenut veneer.
