    Does a riser need insulation?

    definately put at least fiberglass in. its cheap, and will help acoustically deaden your room anyway.

    2 Sub-Woofers

    This is the first thing I do with two subs- get them in phase. Two subs in perfect phase will be 6dB louder than one sub alone when both are calibrated (by themselves, one at a time) to the same level. 75dB is reference level on MOST receiver test tones. Like Denon. So if you set the meter on...

    Subwoofer wiring/jack question

    typically people use rg6 coax for subwoofers. that is just standard cable like what your tv uses. the only difference is the connector. RCA vs FR. I am not sure what you have going on. A thick hard copper wire leaves a lot to my imagination (I didn't even know they made cable that thick! lol).

    Ground Loop problem?

    a cheater plug is cheap. you can try it on what ever grounded things you have in your system to find the culprit. like i said though, it is not recommended as a solution. aparently, an electronic device can build a charge that could be sent though you if you act as the ground. that hasn't...

    Ground Loop problem?

    the ground loop class I took from CEDIA was taught by the president of Jensen. I bought the ground-loop isolation kit from them. I hooked it up in line to the sub, and the buzzing didn't stop. after a lot of fiddling, i realized that if i unplugged the hdmi from the projector, the hum went...

    Netflix raising price for Blu-ray access

    Interesting. although I have come close more than once, I still have not signed up for NetFlix. I never liked the idea of waiting for my movies. I am an instant gratification kind of guy. If they don't have the movie I want at one rental place, I will go to another. The blockbuster closest to...

    can I connect more than one speaker on the same receiver speaker connection?

    you can hook it up like that. i don't think you will like the effect. kinda defeats the purpose of having a surround system.

    After talking with Greenglue manufacturer I'm confused. Also carpet on walls maybe?

    hanging double drywall is a lot of work. I would use only on back wall. From my knowledge of greenglue, it captures/transforms energy that is passing through it. That means it will help isolate your theater from the outside world. It wont make a lick of difference to the higher frequencies that...

    Help need advice on 4 ohm outdoor speakers & which receiver

    i would just mount them up under your eaves like you said. indoor speakers will last a couple of years like that if they are not subject to complete soaking.

    Help need advice on 4 ohm outdoor speakers & which receiver

    If you have four speakers, run two for the left channel and two for the right. Wire the left two in series, and wire the right two in series. This will make each pair of speakers 8 ohms. Problem solved! If you still have the ability to return your Bose speakers- DO IT!!!! You just paid for...

    Lighting Options in HT / games room

    can lights can be a place to allow more sound transmission. you can take some steps to mitigate it though. If you do use can lights, make sure you buy the IC version. These are rated to be okay when in contact with insulation. Then make sure you insulate well around the can. Its also not a bad...
