I have been doing extensive research on these two and I’m at a toss up. I know the Mits has 6 colors on its color wheel, which is supposed to help with the infamous rainbow affect. I could not see this problem in either set. Has anybody compared these two sets? Any advise/help would be...

I have heard about this method when calibrating a HDTV. Does anybody know what this method would consist of?

When calibrating your sub to your mains with a SPL do you have sound coming out off all the speakers including the center or just the front left/rights?

Also, I have read that as a general rule the sub should be set higher (+3db) than the mains. How much higher is your sub vs. the mains? Using a SPL meter I have my mains all equal to 75db and the sub set to 78db using the receivers test tones. Would this or can this cause the bass to by more boomy?

Chris, You mention treating my room with bass absorption. How does one go about doing that?

When trying to measure different SPL readings using 1/3 octave test tones I have noticed that the reading changes when I move around the room. I have the Rat Shack SPL meter on a tri pod at my main listening position. I understand that putting myself between the meter and the speakers could very...

Just purchased a HSU VTF-3 MK2 and so far not too bad. My AV receiver is a Rotel RSP1066 with Paradigm Studio 60s for the mains, CC470 center and ADP470 surrounds . The sub is 16 feet from the mains, right behind my listening area. I have gone through the AVIA set up, but I am a little confused...

Thank you all for your opinions they have been very helpful. Since I live in the US, I think that I am leaning toward the HSU VTF-3MK2. The monkey wrench is that I have had responses from other HT forums that mention the SVS PB12-ISD or SVS PB12-ISD/2 as a comparable sub?? I would love to hear...

Has anybody out there compared the two HSU(VTF-3MK2) and Paradigm(PW-2200)? My HT is used for movies about 80% of the time, but still like to listen to 2ch music. Any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks all for your responses; I will be adding this DVD to my collection.

I’m not sure if this is the correct place to post this question, but does anybody own the Talking Heads “Stop Making Sense” DVD wide screen? How is the PQ and is it more a documentary type DVD or music DVD? Thanks in advance!

Thanks all! Everything seems to be working as explained. Thanks again for your help. By the way I just wanted to say a few words about Rotel tech support. I sent an email with a few questions and they responded back in about 1 hour. I left voice mails and they responded back in about an hour...

Thanks that makes sense. Thanks again! I just now have noticed that when playing Dolby Digital EX DVDs it does not auto-detect. This was supposed to be fixed in the latest release. It did work before I installed the upgrade. I also still get some popping sounds from my speakers when going...

Why would I get LFE on other signals like DTS with my current speakers set to large.

Fellow members, I just did the software upgrade on my RSP-1066 to version 2.26. I notice that I am not getting any LFE from my sub when playing a CD in 2 channel stereo. I’m pretty sure that I did have it before the upgrade, but not 100% sure. Is there something I’m missing? The upgrade said...

I’m going to purchase a RMB-1070 and RB-1050. They will be inside an open cabinet (meaning no glass doors in front). Has anybody rigged up a cooling system (i.e. a fan) to cool the amps? Unlike receivers with a switched plug in the back, I’m not sure how I would put something together for the amps.

DanaA, Yes you are correct. Actually he is giving me 20% off plus $150 off on each. Total price for both not including tax is $1700.

Fellow HT enthusiasts, I am currently testing/demo a RSP-1066/RMB-1075 at home and all I can say is WOW. I have a chance to purchase the demo of these pieces w/ full 5 year warranty still intact. They are giving me $150 off each piece. I’m just concerned about the amp, I’m wondering if I’m...

More info; I’m running directly from the DVD player to the TV. The cables are very insulated (Phoenix Gold) and away from electric cords. Could it be the TV somehow? This is the second DVD2900 and the other one did it as well. I was watching it again today and it only seems to happen at the...

I’m posting this question in hopes that somebody can help me out. I’m getting a slight shimmy at the top of the screen when playing DVDs on my 2900. It doesn’t happen constantly, but once about every three DVDs. It eventually goes away, but when it happens it bugs the crap out of me. This DVD...

I have the opportunity to purchase an SR7300ose for a very good price. I have it home and was able to demo it. It doesn't have the infamous hiss problem like the regular SR7300s. I would love to hear about others who now own their SR7300ose. The new SR7400 has a 32 bit surround bit, compared...
