    I have a room with almost the same exact specs. I hav a 12" DIY Shiva. It has more than enough bass to fill my room. One thing you didn't mention was how high your ceiling are. Mine are almost 9'.

    denon 4802 price question

    I purchased a 4802 from 6th Ave. back in August for $1650 plus $25 shipping. They matched the price Crazy Eddie was advertising. (They are currently advertising $1644). At the time I bought Crazy Eddie's would have charged me $110 to ship the unit so when 6th offered to ship it for $25 I ordered...

    Veneering cabinets - Driver holes before or after?

    Are you going to be flish mounting your drivers? If you are I'll make a suggestion. If you do cut the holes first make sure you take into consideration how you will flush trim the veneer for holes after you apply it. I wish I had thought of that before I built my speakers. The problem I had...

    Input on the Dennon 2800 II

    I picked one up a month or so ago from a local Hi-Fi shop. I got lucky and only paid $499 due to the fact they had it mislabeled and didn't know it. I'm running it through a Denon 4802 and I'm really pleased with the set up so far. I will say if I had to pay $850 for it I would have spent...

    Comments about the Audax Home Theater System?

    I just finished building the complete set and I have to say I'm very satisified with the end result. I have them in a dedicated HT room and use them almost exclusively for movies. Rick mentioned in the last post that the center is a monster, he's right. Mines even bigger due to a modification I...

    whats the denon 4802 price

    I paid $1675 a few weeks ago from a dealer that's listed on Denon's site as an authorized online dealer. Their website listed it at the retail price of $2499. At first I was told the best they could do was $2,000 but when I mentioned I had seen it for $1,650 + $100 shipping my salesperson told...

    Determining Ohm

    I'm very new to all this so any help you can give me is greatly appreciated. I just finished constructing an entire 5.1 set of speakers based on the Audax HT design by Joseph D'Appolito. I purchased all my components from Madisound, including their pre-built crossovers. My question is how...

    Black Oak Finish?

    I just finished a set of speakers and covered them in black oak veneer. My suggestion would be to use a aniline dye. There a little on the expensive side, but they give you a great looking finsh and won't hide the grain. Since your using veneer I'd suggest you go with the alcohol based version...

    I recently purchased a 4802. I'm trying to customize the RC-8000 remote that come with it and I'm having a problem I need help with. Has anyone out there successfully been able to do this? I purchased a USB cable and downloaded the Denon supplied software but can't get my PC to recognize that...

    Orbital or belt sander for enclosures? Which do you use?

    Either will work fine, but a palm sander will be easier to control. Belt sanders are better for large surfaces. It's also a lot easier to damage your work with a belt sander if your not careful. If you leave it in one place for even a second or two you can leave a gouge that will either require...

    non autorized denon

    Like PeterKuhlman's post from a few days ago I'd like to encourage anyone interested in ordering Denon equipment to call the internet dealers listed on Denon's website. I called all the companies listed (except Sears of course). A few of them would only match advertised pricing from authorized...
