I've had my REF50 V1.04 for a few months now and only one issue which may be cables. The REF50 uses no muting circuits when switching inputs and you get a pronounced click from the unit itself when switching. When I was using a coax hookup for the digital signal I got a very loud pop out of my...

Michael, I received the AVM20 with 2.10 software last Wednesday.

I had a problem on a display model V2.08 that I bought a few weeks ago and to anthems credit they sent me a brand new one with V2.10 software and while I certainly haven't done exhaustive testing it seems to be very stable and no issues yet. Great product and BTW, I'll have a REF50 in my system...

Obviously speakers are VERY subjective and while I own and love def tech speakers, I can say that having worked at a def tech and B&W dealer the markup on def tech is about 47% across the board and B&W is about 40%. Klipsch and the other brands he carries are all in the 35 to 50 percent range...

You're almost certainly right Mark, but if a studio is listening, I'd probably be willing to pay 30 or 40 bucks for it with a reasonably done dolby 2.0 soundtrack:) John you're correct about the Go Go's & Boingo:)

Probably of interest to very few here and my first time posting in this area. For fans that are familiar, this is an awesome video that contains music from many late 70's early 80's punk/new wave bands. It is truly a classic of this mini genre. I've done many searches on it and found that...

go with what Rob Roy said. Listen to a few in the store and find something that sounds decent to you. Pay a couple of hundred bucks and buy new ones 2 or 3 years later. I had boston acoustics before and they lasted "4" years before they crapped out. I currently have 1 year old sonance and they...

Benn following since the beginning and it's been great:) All's well that ends well and thanks for relieving your stress with us Mike and providing a little entertainment as well:D

Just to add my 2 cents, I've recently upgraded my electronics to what most would consider the "High End" and there was a definate improvement in the sound that even the wife noticed(and that's saying something). That being said , I've had this nagging thought in my mind that the speakers should...

Domes is good and you can also check out Audio Connection on Laskin Rd. in Va Beach. Ask for Alex or Carl and tell them Jim sent you, then watch the price go up 20 percent:)

Tyson, go to the klipsch website forums and go to the Aragon forum.

Kenneth, Just to clarify the above, we live in a typical middle class house in the same type of neighborhood, but I have my priorities straight:)

Kenneth, I have a bedroom surround setup utilizing 3 in-walls for the front and 2 in-ceilings for surround as well as a powered sub next to the TV stand. The sound is fantastic given the environment and the wife loves it. I can listen to 2 channel or surround downstairs at high volume and she...

Just to re-affirm your decisions, I had a 2300 for a short time when I "downgraded" from a DSP-A1 to get the 2nd zone as well as DPLII. I loved it in the short time I had it, but have since "upgrade" to an Aragon/Proceed front end and understandably I'm happy and significantly poorer:) Enjoy the...

Tyson, Do what Rick said and upgrade the ACT3 to near "Stage One" performance via the Mondial upgrade program. Nothing else in the near 1K price range will even come close IMO.

Proceed AVP2 is adjustable for front/center/surround/rear

I've had DefTech speakers in various forms since 1995 and I agree that the further you can get them from walls etc... is good advice. They can be placed close to a wall with good success. I currently have BP30's that are 1 foot from the back wall, 15 inches from the side wall and 6 inches fron...

Bill, I agree with you that profit is realized after all associated cost are factored in(Employees, electric bill, paper, copier, advertising etc...). My point is that MSRP is a ficticious starting point from which maximum deviation in the downward direction should be applied by the buyer. A...

Here's a bit of "true" info on speaker cost. I only speak for the brands I'm "sure" about. This info is 2 yrs old, but still valid. B&W CDM9NT Dealer cost=$1500 MSRP=$2600 Def Tech BP2000TL cost=$1500 MSRP=$3000 ETC... This same ratio applies to most HDTV sets 42 inches and above. Paying MSRP is...

It's about 40% Scott and it does sound phenominal:) I do feel sorry for those that bought the AVP at close to retail and then wanted to upgrade. The cost of going that route is prohibitive for most people:frowning:

Eric, I just bought a Proceed AVP and upgraded it to an AVP2 for a total of $3900. "I" believe this gives you the best of both worlds(Analog/Digital)and will definitly compare to any "EAD" product, but the ACT3/Upgrade combo could be very close at much less cost. Your mileage may very

Well Jeff, I was using a Yamaha 2300 rcvr and upgraded to an Aragon 7 channel amp and the improvement was substantial. Depending on budget and the amount of components you can live with, you could start with a good 3 channel amp and add the others as space/budget permit. I do believe you'll hear...

Thanks for the interest Rick and yes they're Pro Monitor 100's in Black. Please respond here or email me if you have further questions.

Hello all, I have a pair of Definitive Technology BP1 "bipolar" bookshelf speakers and Pro 100 "monopole" bookshelf or wall mount speakers for sale $150 per pair each. www.definitivetech.com The Bp1's were being used as surrounds in my system and I upgraded. They would make for excellent...

Well Adam I've had the ARAGON for about six weeks now and it is outstanding. I was originally using a yamaha rxv2300 receiver as the processor with this amp and it sounded SIGNIFICANTLY better than using the yamahas internal amps or my friends 5 channel Adcom that I used for comparison. I then...

You should look into the Aragon 2007. I picked mine up for $2400 and it's awesome. I was using a Yamaha DSP-A1 with 110 per channel and the Aragon blows it away. I'm not talking about thinking you hear a difference, there IS a difference. Even the WIFE noticed and that's no small accomplishment...
