    Flaunce vs. BIC for 5.1+music

    Jean, I'm interested in what you think of the HT package. I've got a buddy that had his house broken into about 2 months ago. They took all of his HT including the TV But left his reciever and the sub.... :frowning: This would be a good way to get him back into HT now that he has another 32" tv.

    Check out my cool new Rubbermaid speakers!!!

    Thats cool Kenneth, I might get some more of these and try some other ideas if I like what they turn out like. Maybe some 8ft tall line arrays lol...

    Check out my cool new Rubbermaid speakers!!!

    Thanks for clearing that up. The reciever I am using probably only puts out maybe 50w max, I know low end stuff is always over rated lol. I'll give it a go with them wired at 16 ohms. As long as it's audible it's loud enough for her lol.. I ordered the drivers today. I'll let everyone know how...

    Check out my cool new Rubbermaid speakers!!!

    I was thinking the same at first but, with the low power handling of these cheap drivers I figured it wouldn't effect their output. Correct me if i'm wrong though :)

    Check out my cool new Rubbermaid speakers!!!

    Sorry, I didn't think about it being a multi-material hole saw. I paid $15 for a 3" one at Home Depot but, I used it on my pc case for some 80mm fans. Harbor Freight will be your cheapest way out though, without a doubt. Kenneth Harden, I'm really not wanting to run 4 drivers per enclosure...

    Check out my cool new Rubbermaid speakers!!!

    Do you know of anyone that has a router or maybe a jigsaw? That $18 hole saw is going to be your cheapest way out if you have a drill and no other tools. I'm about to build a Tempest powered with a 250w PE plate amp so I went and picked up my old man's table saw and router/table. I've managed...

    Help with sound deadening an apartment

    Well, Now that the tennis balls worked you can pick up some spikes or, the vibrapods that Bradz is talking about. I have't used anything for my sub it just sits in the corner of the living room next to a chair. Sorry, I can't help you with the doors though. Good luck!

    I just got an Xbox! Questions.

    I have used a cat5 crossover cable coming out of oneof my ethernet cards on my pc. My brother sold his xbox for a game cube but, I still use the homemade crossover for my PS-2.

    Help with sound deadening an apartment

    Spikes are like little cone shaped legs to get your sub off the floor. Here's a link - partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&User_ID=17548680&St=8778&St2=-71573558&St3=47419662&DS_ID=3&Product_ID=121980&DID=7 I can't add links yet so put the http//www You could also try cutting two tennis balls in...

    5.1 speaker placement ... relative to physical structure of room or viewing location

    I set my buddies HT up like #2 I don't like it at all. I would go with the #1 setup.

    Help with sound deadening an apartment

    I think it would be tough to have a sub in an apartment. I know that if you put your hand on the exterior bricks of my house you can feel vibrations when it's turned up to the level that I watch movies with. I would look into isolating the sub from the ground with some spikes like mentioned...

    How about some newer artists for SACD/DVD Audio??

    I'm 21, and I don't think mp3's are good enough.:D

    N64- Goldeneye. Worth it?

    Nothing like making a headshot from behind with a cougar magnum during 4 player split screen!

    How about some newer artists for SACD/DVD Audio??

    Megadeth revised their "Peace Sells" album in DVD-A/DTS/PCM. I highly recomend it.:emoji_thumbsup:

    What is Ultimate Electronics all about?

    rickER, That's how it is here also. I don't really shop at UE because of the higher prices on the same item compared to BB or CC.

    Howdy! I'm new and I've got a question.

    Howdy! I'm new and I've got a question.

    Any places that you purchase from would help. I'm tired of going to best buy to look at HT stuff. As a start though I am going to build a DIY sub soon. I currently have a sony 12" 120w active woofer and it is a little weak imo for my setup.

    Howdy! I'm new and I've got a question.

    I have been into HT for a few years now but I never thought to look up anything on the internet. I was wondering if you guys could help me out with a list of wholesale shops that you use. I have seen parts express but, I was wondering if there are any others that you prefer. Thanks, Billy
