Looking at pictures and being at peoples houses, seems like people are mounting their TV's way too high. I thought he old rule of thumb was to try to center the TV vertically to your eyes in your seated position....Which is actually quite low for a large TV. I currently have my 85" at a height...
I was at a coworker of my wife's house and he had a heck of a 2 channel setup. It was a house party so I never got a chance to ask him about it but I took a pic. They look like Perlistens as they had that distinct checkerboard speakers but I couldn't find these on Perlisten's website. Anyone...
Seems like when the question of what receivers people are looking at or recommending, Sony is not a part of the discussion. Yet when I see professional reviews on them, they review really well. My first 5.1 receiver was a Sony that I purchased back around 1995 or so. It still works! I...
I've been thinking about upgrading my speakers. I really like my HSU subwoofer but would upgrade everything else and maybe get a 2nd HSU. Given the following assumptions: 1) its use will be 95% Home theater. 2) The center channel is the most important speaker for Home Theater. 3) You should...
OK. What better use of money. Denon AVRx-3700 + Monolith 5x (about $1300+ $1400) OR just a better receiver like a AVRX-6700. This is for a guy that would not go bigger than 7.2 and running sub/satellite speakers. I guess this gets to the heart of how much does a separate amp benefit a...
I’m Looking to get into 4K here soon starting with a new TV. I looked to see if my old Denon AVR-X3000 receiver could handle the 4K pass through and it does say on the Denon website...
Support 4K video to enjoy 4 times higher resolution videos than current HD on larger displays and screens...
Time sure flies as it seem like not that long ago I got my Denon AVRx3000 from my wife for Christmas. Then I see that the same model is up to to a revision AVRx3600 and then I’m reminded that mine is pretty old. It seems to work well, but Im wondering if I’m not getting the latest decoding And...
I'm not too happy with the sound of my center channel so I'm thinking about upgrading. My current speakers are all 8 ohm. Some of the centers I'm looking at are 4 ohm. I have a Denon AVR-X3000 receiver. Is it possible to run a 4ohm center with the rest of the speakers being 8ohm? I recall...
I‘ve been running my current 5.1 setup for quite a few years so I’ve kind of been out of the loop on the latest equipment out there. My setup is a Denon AVRX3000 with Phase Tech Teatro 4.5’s for the L,R and rear surrounds. Center is a Phase Tech Teatro 6.5. Sub was a Phase Tech octave series...
So my Phase Tech Octave Power 12 sub gave it up a few weeks ago. It’s about 10 years old so it had a good run and I’m ready to upgrade now. I’ve talked the wife into spending about $750. Both Polk and SVS have some discounts going on. So what’s the better move. Get 1 SVS PB-2000 for $700 or...
