Well yesterday I finally broke down and did what I have wanted to for years. I bought a Panny AE700 from www.projectorpeople.com and a 110" Carada Brilliant White screen. The projector should be here friday and the screen probably sometime next week I think. Currently I have a Mitsu 55" that is...

well CES has came and gone for this year and I was anticipating there would alot of threads about all these new drivers and things that have been rumored but as of yet I have not heard anything? I thought there would alot of new drivers that were being introduced but it doesnt seem like that was...

Just saw a commercial for this movie on tv last night and it looked downright terrifying. I could only find a brief 4 post thread about it though from like 2003. Does anyone have some more info on this movie? Is it a remake of a French Film? Should I expect anything special from this film? What...

Well today I fired up the twin 1804 IB and was going to start doing some more tweeking with the BFD and when I was playing the low stuff below about 25hz I noticed this horrible noise coming from my IB. So on investigation and a removal of one of the drivers I found this...

Well on saturday I finally mounted the drivers in their baffle. i went ahead and stuck on some music and began to listen. now Everything you have ever heard about IB bass is 110% true!!!!!!!!!! I literally sat there for about 3 hours listening to different music and movies. There was such a...

Ok, I finally got a copy of DVE last night and let me first say it is awesome. There was obviously allot of time and effort put into it. I am not exactly sure if this is going to be the proper forum for this but it seemed to make the most sense to me, now on to my concern...

Unit is in perfect visual and working condition. Used very lightly over the past 6 months to power a Tempest for the 1st few months and then a BP 1804 for the past few. I am upgrading to a dual 1804 IB so I need more power. here is the owners manual in PDF form...

Ok I am going to be installing an IB sub in our new home that will consist of 2 BP 1804s. each will be powered by its own Nady XA900 amp found here http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/...se_pid/482052/ so that will provide each sub with around 600 - 700wrms. now I would like to use this...

I finally have all the components I need to complete my IB setup. And the drywall guys are finally getting around to getting the drywall done!! So that means I have actually already cut the hole out where the IB will be going. Here are some pics of the equipment and also of the location of the...

I have attached a drawing of the layout of my HT room. I have the location of the TV, front speakers, IB sub (twin 1804's :) ) and the surround left and right. but I am having a hard time figuring out where to run the wires for the surround back speakers. It is going to be a 7.1 setup and the...

I was over at diyaudio.com and i noticed this link http://www.lumenlab.com so i went ahead and clicked it and it looks pretty amazing IMO. I dont think I have ever even considered that you could diy a projector but looking at this site and also by looking at this gallery of people who have...

Well with the cost of Aura bass shakers at PE I just couldnt resist. So I bought 4 pairs of the standard shakers. when we move into the new house I am going to install them in the sectional and recliner that will go in the HT room but for now I have installed 4 of them in a couch in our...

Well I just noticed that PE is having a buyout on Bass Shakers. I have some questions though.............. 1. In my new house we are going to have a sectional that has 6 seating positions and also a recliner in our HT room. Would I need to have 1 Bass Shaker for each seating location? 2...

I am on the verge of buying an HTR-5760 but I have some questions about the presence speakers that I cannot seem to find any information on at all............ 1) How is the content that is sent to the presence channels actually determined? Is there some additional processing engaged when...

I just completed this project for another member of HTF earler this week. here is the completed product......... Here is a link to alot of pics I took during the build process. I listened to it for a little bit before shipping it out. I guarantee that anyone that heard alignment would...

I finally recieved all the pieces of my new subwoofer project last night. I took alot of pics of the equipment. I am planning to start building the enclosure this weekend, it will be around 17 cubes internal and be tuned in the neighborhood of 15hz. I dont want to speculate but I am thinking I...

I am getting the itch to experiment again. so i am selling my tempest driver and am really considering going with one of the AL1804 drivers from audioliquidators.com. The alignment that i have been considering is an enclosure with 15 cubic feet of internal space and tuned to 16hz. I have a Nady...

I have a new in box PE 250w plate amp for sale. I bought the amp 1 month ago and have never gotten it out of the box. My goals have changed and I have decided to sell it. Here is a link to the exact model I have. http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd...number=300-794 Asking $110+ shipping...

well the more and more i reasearch it the more i am becoming intregued with the idea of going with seperates. It seems like quality amps are always avialable on ebay, for instance I could get an Adcom GFA-5006 and bridge it to provide 175 x 3 for the front stage and then get an Adcom GFA-2535...

welp i got bored this past week and i remembered that i had a set of Fusion 6.5" 3-way coaxial car audio speakers laying around. So i decided i was going to build a set of home speakers. here is what I came up with................. http://bigchris.caraudioplanet.com/B...tereoSpeakers/...

well as some of you might know...... i recently ordered a Nady XA900 amp and a Dayton 15" DVC. I have had the sub for a couple days and it has been patiently waiting for the amp to arrive. the amp got here today and it looks great. strong construction, good packaging, and the fans are quite...

my wife and i are currently building a new home. it has a 2nd living room that we are pretty much dedicating as a HT room that measures 21' x 18' x 8'high. We would like to use in-wall speakers for the surrounds and we are on a budget. would a couple pairs of these work well for the surround...

I just recieved my new 15" DVC yesterday. I have found myself in a bit of a bind however. the only box I have aviable for it is a ported box that is only 5.25 cubic feet and tuned to 21hz. i am not in a position where i can build a new one right now so my delima is, should i stay with the ported...

i did a search on the topic and it seems like this will work ok, but I would like to have assurance that it would be ok. I plan to use this adapter from RCA to 1/4"..... http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd..._ID=2427&DID=7 then use this adapter to go from 1/4" to XLR...

I have been very interested in getting a Yamaha reciever and I have a very good frined that works at best buy who would be able to get one with his discount. but after looking at the models they carry they dont match any of the models listed on the yamaha website. I had been looking at the...

Does anyone know if any of the plate amps out on the market can handle a 2ohms load? And if so what ones? If I would need extra cooling that would be fine because I have access to tons of computer parts and can get some very nice cooling fans.

I have listened to both and they both seem to have some good qualities. But I am still unable to choose. could some people give me a few opinions on this to help me decide? Thanks alot!!

I am planning on starting a new subwoofer project. After some research I think I am looking at using a 15" Dayton DVC and housing it in a ported enclosure with 8 cubic feet of internal volume, I would tune it around 20hz and I would use a Rythmik 350 plate amp from acoustic-visions. Does anyone...
