    Pioneer SP-PK52FS 5.1 Speaker System Review

    Its hard to say because I am using these in two different setups. The BS22 with a Chinese Indeed Class T amp is simply outstanding in the nearfield. They are 3 feet apart and a foot in front of me on ear level desk stands. Crystal clear midrange and a joy to listen to. Previously, I had Klipsch...

    Pioneer SP-PK52FS 5.1 Speaker System Review

    Go Man, go! Definitely looking forward to what you come up with. I first bought the Bs22's and was very pleased with them. These are in my computer setup with an Indeed Class T amp and 8" DIY tangband sub. Phenomenal sounding system and not just for the money. Intrigued, picked up the towers...

    DO NOT BUY anything from AV123

    I would like to say Thank God for Audioholics and this thread! Thank you for allowing it to be up and the truth to be known. No one else would do this and that adds major credibility in my book.

    THanks for the compliments. Yeah... Don't know if I want to run them in the wall or paint them yet. Finishing up a wanescoating thing in the livingroom and planning on running them behind there.

    Home Theater/Livingroom setup

    Actually they are Mausers. A couple Turks and one WW2 German. Have a C&R FFL and was into restoring/collecting them for awhile. I paid like $60.00 for two of them.:D

    Oppo 970Hd... WOW!

    We just watched Xmen 3, The Last Stand and the PQ was amazing on the Oppo. The closest to HD quality from a DVD player I have ever seen. My wife even made a comment on the quality when the opening menu came up. I am very pleased with this player!

    Oppo 970Hd... WOW!

    Color and finish mean nothing to me. I have both black and silver components and a white Xbox 360. Seems like a shame to miss out on quality because of color.

    Oppo 970Hd... WOW!

    I just received the Oppo DV-970HD for my birthday and I am a happy man! I didn't fully realize how much my Samsung HD-841 sucked, most particularly audio-wise. Played DVD's, DVD-A's and SACD's for a couple hours last night and it's like night and day! I am falling in love with my system all...

    Enter to Win: Roomate HTPC from VidaBox!

    Price... I have been building my own PC's since 97' and was considering building one of these. Mostly for added storage for my DVR. However, I really don't know much about HTPC's and exactly how one would exactly benefit my system. I haven't seriously researched what their capabilities are...

    Omar Hakim on DTS Demo disc

    I picked up the DTS demo Alive #10 off of Ebay and I am completely blown away by the Omar Hakim track "Listen Up." Wow! Question: Is this complete DVD recording available? All the other music on the disk can be found readily. Searches on google turn up nothing except to refer to this one...

    Home Theater/Livingroom setup

    NO WAY!!!... I like your stand much better. Very clean looking. I might have to redo mine along the lines of yours. I looked into the center shelves they sell at Circuit City that sit on top of the TV (Forget the name of them) and dropped this idea when someone told me they could permanently...

    Home Theater/Livingroom setup

    I tried an experiment awhile back and hooked up a beatup amp my band uses as a backup to my front speakers. Noticed a profound difference in headroom and clarity even at moderate volumes. The bass was tighter and everything is more refined and clear. There is no substitute for 500 watts per...

    Home Theater/Livingroom setup

    Monroeville is about 20 miles away. Rolling Rock beer is done. Years ago they sold out to LaBlatt's and in a roundabout way RR was sold to Annheiser Busch last year. They are no longer going to brew beer in Latrobe anymore. All the employees got fired and RR is going to be made in New Jersey...

    Thanks for the kind words. Mostly play Battlefield... 1942/Vietnam/and BF2. However, my clan plays Counterstrike. www.iam-clan.com I am in the battlefield division. Actually the bass is pretty balanced. I have the sub on a Gramma Pad which eliminates any boom. I use these under my bass...
