I need the PDF for the "sealed box enclosures" i was at the adire website and was unable to d/l it. If anyone can help me out that would be great. My e-mail is [email protected] thanks
Hope you guys can help, The last movie i watched was War of the Worlds (few days ago). My amp (Detonation DT300 Plate amp) worked fine. I went to turn it on tonight and nothing. Now the rocker switch has auto on/off. When everything was working correctly the red led glows steady when in the off...
I'm waiting for my AV12's to arrive (acoustic elegance), so i'm shopping around for an amp to power them. I'm going to make two seperate enclosures. My design will not accomodate a plate amp. So i'm going to need a dedicated amp to drive them both. I was looking at the Crown K1 from SVS,looks...
This is my situation. I currently have an Adire Alignment tempest in a ported 214l enclosure. I have grown tired of the big box in my livingroom and was wondering if i built 2 subs using the Av12's in smaller boxes if i would get equal or greater output. It would be used 75% for HT,25%Music...
I live in Vancouver,BC. i have been to my local A&B sound,Futureshop,Walmart,HMV,etc and can't seem to find any. There is a wide selection of DVD Videos but that's it. Has anyone ran into this? Where does everyone get their DVD-A/SACD's up here? I have yet to hear one and i'm curious to say the...
I'm unclear of the benifits/drawbacks of hooking my dvd player to my reciever,then to my tv. Currently i am running my component video directly from my dvd player to my tv. What is the benifit of running it through my reciever first?. Thanks Curt
I just completed my front sound stage, and man do they sound great. They have been compared to the Totem Arrows, so i went down to A&B sound and had a listen. I was also told/read that the Spires were better "Hands Down", and now that i had a chance to listen to them both i have to agree 100%. I...
I am building a set of Spires towers and center channel from CSS. They are a 3" driver and i need to flush mount them. The manual on the CSS website states that the driver hole be 3" and the total recessed hole be 3.65". I'm not sure what size router bit to buy. I came up with 5/16? If anyone...
Anyone heard of these speakers. The company is no longer in business. A friend of mine has a Pair of towers and center channel. They sound pretty decent. i was just wondering if anyone knows what happened to the company, if someone bought them out? thanks.
I just completed an AA 214l ported tempest, powered with a DT300 Amp. I would like to thank everyone who helped me at the HTF. I couldn't have done it without all your help. I threw 20 or so movies at this thing in the last 2 days, and all i can say is OMG!!!. It's everything i've wanted and...
I have a DT300 Amp. I am building a 214L Adire Alignment ported enclosure tuned to 15.4hz. My amp has dip switches on the inside to change the base boost. I figured that i would want it set to flat. But there are three freq to choose from,(to set it flat) 18hz,20hz,23hz. I would have to remove...
i am building the Adire Alignment enclosure.Everything including inside volume is to spec. the only thing i am doing different is adding a double exterior wall 3/4"MDF on the bottom where the driver/ports mount. So my question is. I have the FP3 flared port kits from Adire, so do i make the...
i am building an adire alignment ported enclosure. I do not have a table saw yet. So when i buy my MDF at Home Depot, i am going to get them make all my cuts. Looking at the PDF. for the box, it's hard to tell what the actual dimensions for the braces are. Could someone who has built one of...
The day has finally come. I have my tempest sub, going to pick up the amp and ports from CSS tomorrow. The only thing left is to decide on an alignment. That is where i would like some help. I am not limited to any size, i was thinking of using one of Adire's ported alignments. I'll use it for...
I am shortly going to build myself a new Sub. Right now i have the Dayton 10" tiny mighty II. It is great for what it is but i need more bass. My listening area is 16x12x8 with openings to dining room and hallways. I have narrowed it down to three choices, and want some opinions. 1) dayton...

The project took alot longer than i planned,(always the case), but i am pleased with the results. I made the doors out of Fir,frosted the glass myself and made the rest of the cabinet out of 3/4" MDF.It is a total of 10" deep with 4" sunk into the wall, and it will hold 500+ DVD's. Now i need to...
Why is it so important to match your center channel with your mains? The reason i ask is because i have a complete set of "Acoustic Profiles" (mains and center) which i bought up here in Canada about 8 years ago. For all three i think they set me back around $1200.00. They are in excellent...
I Live in Canada, and prices can get alittle out of control up here. I've spent the better part of two weeks auditioning subs like, Yamaha 8"/150 watt for $275, Mission 8"/150 for $350, Klipsch 10"/200 for $569. All seemed alittle expensive for what they were.After reading alot of good Dayton...
I live in Canada, and buying a sub online can get alittle expensive after shipping/handling, exchange,duty, etc. So i have been checking out some new and used stuff. In my local paper, a guy is selling a Klipsch 12" sub for $225. It is 5 years old. I was looking at them new and up here they are...
I have a Sony SA-W305 sub. I want to set it up correctly. My cut freq. on my sub goes from 50hz-200hz. I have a Yamaha RXV-495 DD 5.1 reciever. It appears that the FC is 90hz. I've read the manual and i cannot ajust this. I can ajust the output level of the LFE channel,-20db to 0db. I want to...
I have a Sony SA-W305 Active sub. Not sure if anyone is familiar with it. It's rated at 45w (seems kinda low). My questions regards hookup. I was reading the newbie section on sub hookup and it gives you three ways to hook up a sub. Mine is hooked up in none of these ways. I have a Yamaha...
This is my first post. Hat's off to everyone envolved here,(members/admins) that make this forum work. Ok, I need a little clarification. I have a Yamaha RX- V 495 reciever.It had DD 5.1 but does not decode DTS. Yesterday i went out and bought a new Panasonic S-55 DVD player because i read...
