My receiver has just one subwoofer output. just one single coaxial cable. some of these subwoofers i see now have multiple coaxial inputs. whats the deal?
thinking of upgrading my receiver. the receiver i have now is rated at 130w at 6ohm and the one im looking to buy ia 110w at 8 ohm. my speakers are rated at 250w at 8 ohm. would i be improving my sound or not?
I must have gotten the cheapest reciever ever made with my DirecTV. It is a Panasonic. It doesn't have the optical output on it. Would there be a big difference if i go with a new reciever with optical connection? What reciever do you reccomend. If i buy one off of Ebay do i need a card or can i...
I also have a Panny 200. How do you like yours? What speakers you using? I am using JBL Studio Series Center and their 312 towers. I like mine especially for movies. Are you using the digital hookup for your DVD player? I find that it makes a difference. Brian
I have all of my home theater system which includes receiver, equalizer, cd player, DVD player, VCR and Satellite receiver sitting on top of my big screen. It doesn't look very good. Anybody know of a nice cabinet for around $200? Any other ideas? I also thought of building a shelf above the big...
My S312II's have arrived!! But I'm pretty upset. Before i opened the first one i noticed a hole in the box. After opening it up the speaker box itself was damaged also. I opened up the second one and it was ok. The first one was only single boxed while the other 2 (center channel and other...
How well do you think my reciever will power these speakers? What does sensitivity have to do with it? Here is what is says...Sensitivity (2.83V @ 1m): 92dB My reciever is 130 watt @6ohm. Brian
I have a question on calibrating my system. I have never done it before. Are you talking about setting the "levels" of the speakers? On my remote i have a button for levels for each speaker. They are set on "0" right now except the subwoofer control wich goes from "min., 5, 10, 15, and max." I...
Well i have been looking at a lot of different speakers for a few weeks. These looked like the best bang for the buck in my price range. I wanted to order from jandr.com but shipping was too much. I decided to call anyways and the guy hooked me up with free shipping, but i had to pay $299 for...
I bought the JBL Studio Series S312II with the matching center channel. I hope i made a wise choice. Thanks for the help i have been getting on my posts. Thanks Brian
Well it is mostly used for HT, but i like to watch music videos quite often also. When watching music videos it just doesn't sound too good. The 2 8" woofers in each box don't move very much. How can i find the true wattage and stuff on this reciever? I listen to mostly hard rock and a little...
I have a pair of Kenwood speakers up front now. I don't think they sound very good for music, but ok for HT. What do you guys recomend for a set of front tower spaekers. My reciever is 130x6 at 6ohms. I can't find any specs on these Kenwood speakers except they are 140watts. I really would like...
Well i guess turning it up to about 30 is ok then. my old Technics i had was different. The volume went up really quick on it. I never went pass 1/2 way with the same speakers. Thanks Brian
I own the Panasonic SA-HE-200 and love it. I paid $320 shipped with free rear center channel and a DVD. Instructions are bad ,but everything else is awsome. Brian
What woud be a good tower speaker for this reciever. Would it sound better if the speaker were 6ohm or 8ohm? Right now i have Kenwood KVS-400 speakers. Are these good speakers? I bought them used. I use the reciever for music and HT. The reciever is 130watt at 6ohm. Would there be a huge...
Yeah i understand you. I have A sattilite reciever and also a vcr and neither one of them have s-video. So it looks like i will have to stick with the video cable i have now. The tv has only one s-video input and 2 other videio inputs. Thanks Brian
I have a Panasonic SA-HE200 also. Where did you guys plug your s-video in from your DVD player. Is there anything i need to switch to run s-video? I am hooking it up where i think i should be under the DVD section on the back where it says in. Alsi i couldn't get the s-video from the reciever to...
I connect the s-video from the DVD player to where i think is the right place on the reciever and i get no signal. I am running the optical cable for the audio and it works. Do you have to have a 6-channel DVD player to hook it up this way? The DVD player works with the s-video when you hook it...
I have a 6.1 reciever and when i switch the dvd to 6.1 i get no sound. I do have an optical connection from dvd to reciever. I tplays in DTS-ES. Is that good? The rear center channel does work in this mode. Brian
I also have the SAHE-200. I don't think mine will flag Rush Hour 2 as DTS-ES. I can't even select 6.1 under the sound options because i get no sound. But when i select 5.1 it has sound. Does it do it with yours? Brian
