I've been going to best buy for several months now. I spend quite a bit of time in their magnolia room. Generally, I buy online but audition what little best buy has before I make my order. I've been talking to same person nearly every time I visit best buy. I actually bought a marked down...

110Hz seems a little low.. Fronts are set at 200Hz

Or this

Aud has center set at 110Hz

It's all put together with wood glue and trim/pin nails. It would be a pain to take apart, plus it's made of ceder so it would most likely crack heavily. Ill make a new one out of MDF I think.

I'm not sure ill have to look in my aud manual settings

Perhaps it's the movie. Watching something different now with no crackle. Hard to believe a newer Star Trek bluray would crackle like that

When loud dialogue is playing my center crackles a little, like the volume is up too high but it's not. Only happens during yelling for the most part. I upgraded the wire to the receiver, had no effect. I played with all my setting on the receiver even lowering the center by -12bB. Only thing I...

Yup. There's a middle support to hold the weight that cannot be removed.

My tv is already an inch taller than I'd like. Can't take another 5 inches with the tv sitting ontop of my center. I'll have to check out that mount for sure

My wife and I agreed that we'd wait to build our home theater system until we moved into our house the end of next year but when my father in law gave me a set of this speakers for free it was all I could do not to set them up immediately. After scolding said father for encouraging me to start...

I built my TV stand myself as well as the other tables in the living room, because I got the materials free from work and it was fun for both the wife and I. But at the time I did not expect to build a system because we are in a townhouse at the moment. After I read, watched, talked, slept and...

Love the star wars posters!

It has Aud and dolby sound control. It has dynamic eq and volume control and the ability to adjust dialogue through the center channel separate from the Aud settings as well as LFE control and subwoofer out. And a cinima auto eq.

I wonder if I choose to tell the ps3 to do my decoding can my avr still use its dynamic volume and dynamic eq since its not really in control.

Just to clarify, when my ps3 is set to linear PCM and my receiver says multi channel in I'm getting pretty much 5 speaker stereo. Ps3 set to bitstream and my receiver says dts-HD ma I'm getting an actual 5.1 surround experience?

We haven't used it for games in years. Just blu rays and Netflix/Hulu. Can you give me a few suggestions for a starting point $300 and bellow?

I have the top ps3 in that picture, so the newer one. I'd get a dedicated bluray player but from what I've looked at to get any really performance increase past the ps3 id have to pay $500+

I'm not sure I'm out of town at the moment it's not flat.

Thanks for the help. This is the most useful and knowledgable forum I've joined.

I don't recall. I know the receiver was unplugged from the wall when I plugged everything else in to it. If I do unhook everything from the wall, will I lose the calibration and settings I have on my receiver now? This is a common issue and wouldn't be resolved by exchanging this receiver with a...

A google search says my receiver is dying or I have some sort of handshake issue. I bought my receiver 48 hours ago. Turned it on and there was a heavy pink tint on tv. Checked all plugins and all was good there. Had to turn off and back on receiver to get a clear picture. Sure hope my $500...

I fail to see the reference to a 2 man saw.. Both devices are doing the same thing with the same quality?

So I've set my play station 3 to bitstream from linear PCM which now has the receiver claiming its running dts-hd master (for this particular movie). My question is, is my ps3 decoding or processing the audio at all or is it sending it to my receiver to decode and process, like I want it to? I...

I dont have a gain knob on my def tech pro 800 :(

He has given me the same adive, I bought a different brand center speaker than my fronts and I returned it the next day. I agree stick with the same speaker if you can, at the very least the same brand.

I thought I'd update what I bought for others seeking a similar setup. I was fortunate enough to have a set of morel speakers given to me which, to me, sound better than the def tech pro 1000s. The sub I got with the speakers had a rattling issue so I replaced it with a def tech pro 800, which I...

I'm running 100 watt speakers. I used the audyssey auto calibration. To get a decent volume level I need to run it at over 60 at least. Is this normal to turn up the receiver that high or higher to get good volume?

That is, if I can even find speakers using a tweeter similar to that one.

So, matching the tweeters is the key factor in mis matching speakers?
