A rather subjective thread. Tidel is now streaming 5.1 audio, but I'd be surprised if it was true dvd/blu-ray quality. I suppose the question for me, is: did high rez audio every really take off? To me, it'd a resounding "no". I haven't kept up with HD streaming audio, but last I checked, most...

Really good movie. Draws inspiration from 2001 A Space Oddyssy, channels a bit of inner dialogue of Appocalypse Now, anf no doubt drops a bit of hommage from other older scifi movies. The story is a slow burn, but never boring, and wholly origional. Personally, I think Brad Pitt's performance...

I watched an interesting video on a semi blind teste using 5 different speakers from different manufacturers, that were all priced differently. Semi blind meant the guy didn't hide the speakers, but the test subjects new very little about speakers. Anyway, he waa interested in which speakers...

I have expensive tastes. I now own: 2x 10" Paradigm UltraCube subwoofers 11x MilleniaOne speakers. I ran up to the AV store. They do stock Anthem recievers. I have no idea who I talked to on the phone that said they no longer stocked Anthem. Anyway, I'd have to get the Anthem MRX 1140 to drive...

I got to thinking, plenty of people come to this forum looking for inexpensive ways to get good sounding speakers to replace the dreadful internal speakers on a Television. Due to circumstances, I had to say goodbye to my home theater setup from years ago. Fast foward a few years to 2021...

Anybody know how virtual surround sound works? I'm on my desktop, which has an old 2.1 speaker set up, but it is THX certified. -Don't confuse THX certified to mean good sounding speakers. I watched this video: Dolby Virtual Surround

I finally got to the Home Theater dealer that's in driving distance. I asked him about AV recievers in general and mentioned I used to own an Anthem AV reviever. The sales guy told me to wait on buying an Anthem reciever because Anthem AV was about to launch a new line of AV recievers. I...

I used to own a home theater using MileniaOne speakers. What would be the next step up from those in the Paradigm lineup. If I build a new home theater, I wanted to step up the quality a notch. Plus I want to use floor stands instead of wall mounting. I will still be a 5.1 system. I snagged a...

When setting the crossover on a sub, are you setting the upperbound limit, or lower bound? That is, if you set the crossover to say, 75, the sub-woofer won't play frequencies above that? Or do subs come with both upper bound and lower bound knobs?

I found practically a steal of a deal on a Paradigm Ultracube 10 subwoofer. I have a Kliptch soundbar that can add a 2nd subwoofer (wired only), in addition to it's included wireless subwoofer. I was wondering if it would be better to just use the Ultracube 10 alone, or add it as a 2nd...

It came one day earlier than I thought it would. It sounds amazing for 3.1 sound. Unbelievable actually for the price. No: it's not competing with the Anthem AV + Paradigm setup I want eventually, but for $300 it's unbelievable. The first movie I watched was Aquaman, starting with the Kraken...

I spent 3 years researching home theaters... it took that long to pay off my credit card. Then I had to save up for a TV and home theater, that took a couple years. (Toshiba HDTV back in 2008. In 2009 or maybe 2010, I bought an Anthem AV and Paradigm MilleniaOne setup and a nice Paradigm...
