    speakers for around $1000

    I have a pair of Infinity Beta 50's and a C360 center channel speaker and they are excellent. Can't comment on the dipole surrounds as I'm using my former front channel speakers ( old DCM Time Windows) as my surrounds. The Beta's have a very wide and smooth frequency response and are easy to...

    The Definitve 200 -- A new "Best Album of All Time List"

    Dixie Chicks in the top 200 of all time? Not that their music is bad but as mentioned in other posts there are a lot more albums tha have stood the test of time that are not in this list. Check back in 10 or 15 years on the Chicks and we'll see were they stand in time.

    Best NYC PIZZA!!!!

    Sounds like Sally's, Modern and Pepe's pizzas. The standard to judge all other pizzas...I say that coming from a family that had a restaurant in Hartford CT for more than 25 years that made really good pizza. http://www.yaleherald.com/archive/fr.../p51pizza.html Now I'm hungry...and it's just...

    I need a new sub, Any advice?

    I love my SVS PB12 NSD sub. For the money I don't think there's anything better at this stage. Great depth and very good detail with enough kick for home theatre use. Build quality is second to none...much better built than my older Velodyne sub. I noticed your post because you have DCM...

    This could be a really stupid question

    Using a Y cord effectively increases the voltage input to the sub, so if you don't calibrate the sub for the system and you switch to the Y connection what you've done is raised the volume level of the sub. If the system is properly calibrated ( levels set properly on all speakers) using either...

    Why are medical tests so expensive?

    My gripe is why people who don't have insurance can't negotiate a better price for a cash payment.. Seems that an immediate cash payment would deserve some kind of discount being that there is no paperwork to file, no 30, 60 or 90 day wait for payment. I tried to negotiate a discount with a...

    New Christmas Album From... Well, Me.

    Just had a listen to the clips on myspace....nice stuff. Just wondering if the people here are familiar with the Moody Blues "December" disk? Nice stuff for this time of year and a real nice rendition of Bleak Midwinter" to close out the album.

    Connecting sub

    If you use tape out to the sub you won't have any volume control for the sub. Unless you have pre out connections on your receiver any low level output you use will have a fixed output level and will not control the volume of the sub. If that's the case the only input on the sub to use would be...

    Mattress Pad - Should I get Featherbed, MicroFiber or Memory Foam?

    I've had a memory foam mattress topper on my waterbed for 2 years and like it. The only problem is for us it gets too hot sometimes. I no longer have the heater turned on for the bed and we keep the heat very low ( 64) at night. During the summer we need the airconditioning on in the bedroom...

    IS SVS REALLY GOOD?

    There is no comparison....the SVS goes way deeper, can play substantially louder is significantly tighter and more controlled and it's frequency response sounds extremely even hard to describe the difference...it's so clean that it just blends in with my other speakers ( Infinity Beta 50's) and...

    IS SVS REALLY GOOD?

    Well...I've had my PB12 NSD for a little over a month now and it really has impressed me. This is the first time I've actually felt bass I couldn't hear. On some movie tracks there is bass I never knew existed...it actually seems to take your breath away! This sub is incredibly tight and musical...

    Saw the new Sharp Aquos LCDs

    I looked at the new 46" and 52" Sharp at BB on Thursday, they were next to an XBR2 46" and the skin tones on both Sharps had a greenish cast to them. No other sets there had this cast to them, including the plasmas and DLPs. The Sony's colors seemed more lifelike and it's whites looked cleaner...

    Recommend something!

    I don't know about availability in CA but I really like my Infinity Beta 50 speakers. They are rather large floor standing speakers that have a very smooth response with geat mid and high dispersion so you have a fairly wide range of seating positions that still offer very good imaging and...

    Hsu STF-1or2 or SVS PB10-NSB

    I've been using an SVS PB 12NSD for almost a week now and it is an incredible sub for the money. My room is not as big as yours but the subs output is incredible. Very clean and defined on music and it goes DEEP with great impact when it is called on for movies, without sounding boomy. For the...

    Flying Cars

    Good song about this subject on Todd Rundgren's latest musical adventure called "Liars". Great mix (as always from Todd) especially the DVDA version.

    IS SVS REALLY GOOD?

    The shipping charges are available on the SVS web site. To ship my PB12 NSD to me it was about $62.00 ( 95 lbs shipping weight)

    IS SVS REALLY GOOD?

    My PB12 NSD is going to be delivered on Monday. It's replacing a Velodyne CHT-12 that I've had for 5 or 6 years and from accounts from people making the same upgrade there will be no comparison. The Velo was not cheap when I bought it...$500.00 and considering that the SVS is only $599.00 I'm...

    DSOTM on DVD-Audio...is coming!

    I've had the DVDA of DSOTM for quite a while...yeah downloaded it and burned it.I must say that the mix is very good....the SACD has a more subdued sound ( DVDA is brighter) but the mix does sound more like what they sounded like when I saw them in concert..more emphasis on the surround...
