    Would this work?

    Thanks again for the info guys. I did end up building a sealed box, at about 1.888 cubes gross, which is almost exactly what WinISD said. It really sounds awesome, and it perfectly adds that low end that I've been missing out on when I have my music at low-medium levels. At loud levels it's...

    Would this work?

    Thanks for the info. What is EBS? Also, if I were to go ported, don't I have to have a subsonic filter set at the tuning frequency? If that's the case, I don't have a way of putting a subsonic filter on it. Anyway, I planned on making a sealed box, for simplicity and to save space. By the way...

    Would this work?

    I want to implement some stuff I have into the creation of a "powered sub" as a temporary sub for my Pioneer 1014. I have an Image Dynamics ID MAX 12 V.3 D4 Sub. It is a Dual 4 ohm Voice coil sub, with 1000 watts RMS power handling. I have an older Pioneer stereo receiver that puts out at most...

    How to connect computer digi out to receiver

    What cable or combination of cables do I need in order to connect my computer's digital out (which looks like a headphone jack) to my receiver's digital in? Am I supposed to use a cable that looks like a headphone plug at one end, and a single RCA connector at the other end, and then a butt...

    Help choosing DVD changer

    Here's a different one, the Toshiba SD-6915. It is cheap, and it looks like it has all that I want. Does anyone have any pros/cons with this one, or know anything about it?

    Help choosing DVD changer

    I remember looking at that one, and I think there was something that it didn't have that I wanted. I think it may have been that it didn't have optical digital output, and that it only had the coax digi output. I prefer to have both digital outputs so that any other source can take whatever it...

    Help choosing DVD changer

    I have a Pioneer VSX 1014TX Receiver in the mail on the way here, and now I am trying to choose a DVD changer to go with it. I don't care about SACD, and my receiver decodes Dolby Digital and DTS, so that doesn't matter either. I am big into music, and I will probably use the DVD changer...

    Any REAL difference in guage of wire??

    I'm sure most of you have noticed how rediculously expensive speaker wire is (especially 12 gauge). Being a car audio guy, and more recently getting into home audio stuff, I decided to ask a local car audio shop if he could sell me a large 250 ft spool of speaker wire. He called up his supplier...

    how good is the pioneer VSX-1014 going to be compared to the elite.....

    Like someone mentioned above, jr.com does have the 1014 for $399.99, with free shipping and no sales tax except New York. I think their website is showing it for 499, but I called their toll free number, and the sales rep confirmed that it was $399 with free shipping. Mine should be here in a...

    how good is the pioneer VSX-1014 going to be compared to the elite.....

    So much for getting it at bestbuy. As for the 10% off coupon, I said I found one that had expired on the 19th, so obviously it is no longer valid, and that I was still in search for one. But it doesn't matter anymore since the price is back up.

    how good is the pioneer VSX-1014 going to be compared to the elite.....

    I'm still trying to find a best buy coupon, if anyone knows of one. A google search brought up one 10% coupon, but it expired on the 19th. I would like to get it at Bestbuy, but after tax it is still about $50 more than I can get it shipped on the internet from another place. Thanks, Kenny

    how good is the pioneer VSX-1014 going to be compared to the elite.....

    I just noticed that Bestbuy's website had the 1014 on sale for $399. Does anyone know if the store would honor the website's price? Also, Does anyone have the coupon code or whatever for that 10% off that I could use? Thanks, Kenny

    how good is the pioneer VSX-1014 going to be compared to the elite.....

    That brochure on Pioneer's website really helped. It had all of the pictures and the specs and info that I've been looking for. I'm pretty sure that I'll be going with the 1014. The additional auto-eq and power that Stephen mentioned sounds like it would do good for me. Now for the search for...

    how good is the pioneer VSX-1014 going to be compared to the elite.....

    Thanks for the info. That really helps with my decision. I'd really like to get the factory warranty with the receiver, or some sort of year warranty, so that is the main thing holding me back right now. Does anyone know the cheapest that I can get the 1014 with a good warranty? And does...

    how good is the pioneer VSX-1014 going to be compared to the elite.....

    I'm trying to decide whether to buy the Pioneer 1014 or the 914. My main concerns are the auto MCACC, and the power output, which they both appear to have in common. It to me like the differences are 7.1 vs 6.1, and a few more inputs on the 1014. Can anyone help me with all the...
