Ok so I used to live on the top floor of a triplex. My sub is a HSU VTF-3 MK3and the room was about 13ft X 13ft with standard 8 ft ceilings (1352 cubic ft)and it pounded the crap out of my place now i just bought a condo and I live on the ground floor which is hardwood over cement. The new room...

So my current set up is: Receiver: Pioneer VSX-1014TX Fronts: B&W DM 604 - S3 x 2 Rears: B&W DM 602 - S3 x 2 Centre: B&W LCR 600 - S3 Sub: HSU VTF-3 MK2 The problem is I want it to be louder, I have the DM 604's bi-amped from the Pioneer but it seems as though they are still not...

Ok, so I have the Pioneer 1014 matched up to a bi-amped pair of B&W 604's, with B&W 602 surrounds, a B&W LCR600 centre and a Dr HSU VTF-3 subwoofer. But the problem is I am not getting enough "punch me in the face" power from my mains. So I am thinking I need to get a separate 2 ch power amp for...

I have a Pioneer 1014 and the only option for the rack is to have only about 1 inch of space above the amp, now I know this is very bad so I want to get a few amp fans to help with dissapating the heat, I can put 1 fan on top near the back and then maybe two on the sides. Does anyone have any...

Ok so I just purchased a 50" Hitachi Rear Projection LCD, but now I am thinking of taking it back to get a DLP. I would be getting either the 50" Samsung HLR5067W or the 52" Toshiba 52HM95. Anyone have any opinions on these two DLP's? Or should I just keep my rear projection LCD?

I currently have a Pioneer 1014TX receiver with Athena speakers and a Dayton sub. I just purchased (yet to receive) B&W DM604-S3 front towers, B&W DM602-S3 rear surrounds, B&W LCR600-S3 centre channel and an HSU STF-3 Subwoofer... now my question is will the Pioneer Receiver be enough to power...

So for the actual price to my door (Canada) the SVS PB12-ISD will be about $200 (Canadian) more then the SVS PB10-ISD. Now after reading everything I know the PB10 is an amazing sub so I would assume the PB12 is even better but is it worth the extra $200?? The room is 14 x 14 (50% electronic...

Ok, so I know that these subs are not really in the same class but this is my dilemma... I can get a used Tannoy PS115 for $425 or a brand new SVS PB10-ISD for $429, the Tannoy is only 100 watts but it's a 15" sub. The SVS is 300 watts but it's only a 10". Does anyone have experience with either...

So my uncle has a Technics SA-AX540 amp (rated at 100 watts per channel in to 8 Ohms) and he was using two Cerwin Vega CLSC-12 towers (8 Ohms, 300 watt peak)) for the fronts. Now his amp is saying overload. There are no loose wires crossing and there is plenty of air around the unit. The next...

I can not get my Home Theater Master MX-500 to control the surround functions on my Pioneer 1014, even when teaching the MX-500 with the Pioneer's remote... anyone else have this problem and/or solution?

So I just hooked up my Pioneer 1014 and it's only going to be used in stereo mode until I decide between Polk or Athena for the surrounds. BUT is there any way to get more clean power in to just my two big Cerwin's while I am only using them???

Ok so I just got my Pioneer 1014, and I have two new cerwin vega CLSC-12's for my front's (I know they aren't good for home theater but I needed them for parties) and I am getting the SVS PB10 subwoofer but now I have to decide on a center channel and rear surrounds. I was all set on the Athena...

Hello guys, I just purchased two Cerwin Vega CLSC-12 tower speakers. Now I need a reciever but I want surround. So I am looking at the Yamaha HTR-5760 or the Yamaha HTR-5790. The 5790 has a few more watts but it's alot more money. What do you guys think?
