    Humidifier making my receiver buzz

    My receiver developed a buzz about a month ago. It would come and go and was really starting to drive me nuts. I narrowed it down to a humidifier that isn't even on the same circuit. Every time it's plugged in, it somehow interferes with my receiver. I don't understand how it's possible...

    Best way to wire 2 Atlas 15's?

    The Atlas 15's are 4 ohm woofers. If I wire them in parallel, that put the total impedence at 2 ohm's. Right? And in series it will be 8 ohms. How do I keep them at 4ohm's? Thanks.

    Stage/sub

    I'm going to be building a stage that is 8'x 2'x 3'.(roughly) I want it to dual as my sub, adding 2 15's, front firing.(yet to be determined) Ported at the front also. Now would I be better off building one big box with the above dimensions? Or would 2 Adire boxes, which will fit inside...

    The Exorcist III

    Just finished watching this for the first time in over 10 years. Didn't remember a thing about it. Actually I just finished watching all 3 Exorcist movies. I was very surprised, in that I found the third movie to be by far the best. It is scarier than the first even though it relies more on the...

    Projectors

    I've been doing a bit of research the last few days and the Infocus 5000 seems to be the best bang for the buck with the MSRP at $1999.00. Probably get it a little cheaper than that. Anyone have one of these? What are your thoughts on it? Thanks

    Another movie that needs a name.

    Ok, this movie is fairly old. Late 70's or early 80's. I can't really remember much about it. There is an elf, I think, that is super fast with a bow. Another guy only has one eye in the middle of his forehead. The only scene I can remember is when the elf and another guy are trying to...

    Notebook & Surround Sound

    I just bought a Dell Inspiron 9100 notebook today. Can't wait to get it. I will be hooking it up to my H/K 7200 via S-video. The problem is with the audio. There is no optical or coax output. The only audio output it has (that I know of) is the headphone output. So how do I go about getting a...

    DTS and Dolby Digital

    After much experimentation I have come to the following conclusions about DTS and DD. DTS Normal dialogue is very clear. It also seems like background music is toned down a bit, which is also beneficial. However in action scenes and other high volume scenes the sound is very shrill to the...

    Help with JBL PB12

    There are two green lights that light up when the sub is powered on. But yesterday I noticed that the lights were red. Today they are back to green. Does anybody know why it's doing this? I was thinking maybe it had something to do with a setting in the reciever, but I couldn't replicate...

    Audio Conversion

    My Directv receiver is a RCA420. It has no optical or digital coax out. Currently it is hook up with the analog RCA connectors. Just wondering if there is something that exists that will convert the analog signal into optical or digital coax. I don't really want to buy a new reciever, but I...

    Crossover recomdations

    First off, I'm still waiting on my system to arrive.:frowning: It should be this week though. Anyways after doing a bunch of searching and reading, I'm now more confused than I was before. (If that's possible) What I do understand is any frequency above my crossover point will go to the...

    Best center to compliment system

    Hello, I just bought 4 JBL ND310 II floor standing speakers. My receiver is an H/K 7200. Just wondering what the best center speaker would be to compliment the system. I'm definitely going with a JBL but should I go with 2-way or 3-way center? I was looking at an N-centerII, which is a 2-way...
