I was just wondering if my NAD equipment is popping and MarcUR has a NAD that is popping and EricWu has a NAD doing the same thing ( not sure if EricWu's is NAD yet ) that mabey there is something wrong with the NAD itself? MY dealer has told me to try using a GROUND SHORT PLUG. Anyone heard of...
EricWu: Are you using a NAD receiver as well as MarcUR? The reason I ask is that I too am running a NAD unit ( T163 pre-pro and T973 amp ) and I am getting the pop sound from my speakers as well. Mine does it whenever the doorbell rings or when my furnace kicks on or when the amp turns off. I...
I went on the website for Marantz and I can't believe that there is only one dealer in all of Canada - in Pickering Ontario. Does anyone know where I could get an accurate dealer list for Ontario?
I'm considering getting the NAD T773 receiver and have found that it does not have DTS 24/96. What exactly is this and how badly do I need it on my new receiver-to-be? The NAD has an RS 232 port for future upgrades. Is this DTS 24/96 something I may be able to get upgraded to via the RS 232...
I am considering purchasing the NAD T773 receiver but I see that it only has dolby pro logic 2 and not dolby pro logic 2x. What is the difference? Should I get something like the Yamaha RXV 2400 instead just because it has the DPL2x ?
Well I decided to take my studio 40's into a different store and hook them up to a Bryston amp ( 4B SST ) and I was much happier with the sound. I wanted to take in my 100's but they are just too big to lug around. I would like to hear the B&K amps but I don't know of any dealers around me. I...
I'm pretty new to the world of HD televisions so please be gentle with me. I have a pioneer elite pro 710hd television and I have my DVD player hooked up to it with a 10 foot component cable ( v2 Tributaries maximum performance ofc video cable - model DCVC ). I'm moving my equipment rack further...
Alfredo - all I can say is that I am very confused and frustrated right now. I have the Paradigm Reference studio 100 v.2's (as well as all the other matching surround studio's to go with them ) and I am currently running a Yamaha RXV-992 digital receiver with them (nothing too amazing). After...
Alfredo - I am in the same situation you are in. I have the studio v.2's - ( 100's, cc, adp, 40's, servo 15 ) and I am also looking for a great amp(s) to match with them. I have listened to BRYSTON and it sounded very nice but it sounds like I had better give ROTEL a good audition as well. If I...
As a matter of fact, John, I have listened to the Totems and I think that they are a fabulous, fabulous speaker. However, because their sensitivity is 87 db instead of 90 db, they do not fill all of Yogi's requests. I do apologize for going overboard on trying to `prove` Paradigms worth, I...
I'm just saying that the Paradigm's deserve a listen to. - in a highly regarded audio mag they won runner up for BEST speaker 2000. The one that beat them out was $85,000(U.S) Dynaudio Evidence - in this same magazine they did a test report on them and the guy that tested them said, "You may...
There are plenty of quality speakers out there for sure,but to me it sounds like this one is exactly what you are looking for: PARADIGM STUDIO 100 v.2 1) $2200 wood veneer 2) Floorstanding speaker 3) Bi-ampable 4) Frequency response: 39Hz - 22kHz 5) 91 db sensitivity 6) 8 ohm compatible
My pioneer elite pro 710hd has a crooked screen. When I bring up the 72 point convergence screen the white lines running horizontally are slanting by about half an inch. Anyone else experience this and what did you do?
Dave, I have mine mounted on the side walls. I position myself directly in between them. The top of the speaker is about 12 inches from the ceiling. What electronics are you running with your newly aquired v.2's? Did you also opt for the reference servo-15 sub?
I've had a pair of studio 100 v.2's and a studio cc v.2 up front running for about 3 years now. My surrounds used to consist of a pair of psb 300's mounted on the side walls. Six months ago I replaced the psb's with the studio adp v.2 and I could not be happier. At first it took a little getting...
I recently went onto the Paradigm website and they have a promo for a new SIGNATURE series. They say that it is coming soon. I know the studio line hasn't been replaced as it has just been updated to the v.3. So is the SIGNATURE series going to be of better quality ( or more expensive ) than the...
