Well, I think it is safe to say Bose does suck in most peoples eyes on this board. I agree with that statement 100%, decent bang for buck can not be accomplished with this company, it's more like, no bang for big bucks! But hey, at least they are making billions off of unassuming customers...

I did compare the 2 and there was really no direct comparison. Don't get me wrong, the Athena PS-400 was not bad, it just was not as good. I heard a great quote from another poster and here it is: "The Athena was like Beyonce and the HSU was like Aretha, Beyonce can sing, but Aretha is a...

I could not agree more Matt. It's hard to get SVS up here in Canada with all the taxes, boarder charges and everything else involved, so once I realized that i turned my view's to the STF-2 and there is no turning back. I'm Very happy and not just the sub, I am impressed with HSU's customer...

Hey all, Well back a few weeks ago I picked up an STF-2. I use it in conjunction with a Pioneer VSX-1014 and Athena F2's B1's and a C1. When I first set it up, I must say I was thoroughly satisfied, but let me tell you that I just calibrated it properly, and it is truly unbelievable!It's not...

Yes, Parker I am very happy with it so far! Well here are a couple pictures of my place for now. In August I will be moving into a fully detached home, and I am converting one room into a dedicated entertainment area for home theater, music and gaming, really can't wait. Well here is a couple...

Wow! I just set my HSU STF-2 up and played a couple CD's (U2, Zooropa, Jesse Cook, Fall At Your Feet) and a live music DVD (U2, Go home at slane castle in DTS). I played them at a really low volume (As my daughter is sleeping) but I could not believe the clarity and subtle response of this sub...

HSU STF-2 sub!!! This thing looks very cool. Nice and simple, nothing too fancy. Now just have to hook it up and give it a run. Anyone have an STF-2? And I would love to hear your thoughts on it! I will surly give you mine in a couple hours!

They teetered huh? Wow that is very surprising. Mine are perfectly stable. I mean could literally push them quite hard and barely any movement. I have them on hardwood with the spikes on to level them evenly, and placed small rubber feet from home depot under them to protect the floor. If...

Hello there, I just purchased the following stands: futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&dept=2&sku_id=0665000FS10022738&catid=10015&newdeptid=2# This site does not allow URL's until you have 15 posts, and it just erased my first response to you. Very nice...

My old Pioneer 510 was all hooked up to the same sources it is hooked up to now, and the stereo mode is still lower than the 510. So DVD, CD, Xbox, VRC, TV and Radio are all well lower than I am used to with the 510 model

Thanks all for your responses. After reading the responses I think what Mark is saying is correct, i really notice the surround sound being a more true and louder sound than the previous VSX 510, since I was used the surround mode dropping off in volume after listening in stereo. To...

Hello all, I just picked up the Pioneer VSX 1014, and noticed that the stereo level is quite a bit lower than my previous VSX 510. When playing in Stereo, it there a setting I can save so both front left and right levels are full? Now when it is in Stereo it seems like it plays in 2 channel...

Hi Kurt, I currently have the same set up as you, pertaining to my fronts and center, and I also have the AS-B1's as my surrounds. I have to say that they do sound great. I used to have them as my mains, and I also had the B2's as mains for quite a while. To be honest, I have compared the 2...

I have to agree with Philboy, U2's Rattle and Hum is an incredible sounding live DVD. Check out "With or Without you" The drum track is absolutelyoutstanding, one of the very best I have heard!

That is excellent David. Thanks for the feedback. Well since my front's can handle bass as they have 2 8 inch cones, I do think that based on what you suggested I will set them to large with a crossover at 100 Hz. I will also mess around with the DRC and LFE. Thanks again, :emoji_thumbsup:

Hello all, I am a newbie here in this forum and this is my very first post, so please be gentle. I am currently running a full Athena set up off of my entry level Pioneer VSX-D510 Receiver. Front: 2 AS-F2's Center: 1 AS-C1 Rears: 2 AS-B1 No sub at the moment While I am waiting to...
