    At what price level will a center speaker improve sound?

    Still, in most cases, this elevates the screen above the speakers line; especially pronounced in small rooms.

    Something to think about when listening to your receiver, or using you iPad or iPhone

    Overpriced? Maybe because Apple products are so way overpriced in spite of the low cost of materials and cheap labor in China and the end-price has not trickled to the workers? Here's a link to how much iPhone 4S really costs: Apple's iPhone 4S price: How much it really costs to make |...

    Baby!

    I was also under a bigger rock. So shocked and terrified to read zumbo's first post but I'm really happy that it was 4 years ago and zumbo's kid has turned out to be a healthy and beautiful girl. I get easily affected with terrible stories about kids. I also have a 3 and 1/2 years old baby...

    Straight from the horse's mouth - "Go ahead and lay your SVS sub on its side"

    How do you know? I mean, you'd know if it's Indian but if it's Filipino, would you? :D

    The Tree of Life

    My (left or right) foot! I'm amazed how just anyone classifies someone as a leftie or a rightie just because of how he appreciates this movie. I think the movie is a poor determinant of which part of your brain you often use for thinking. It would be giving this movie too much value. The...

    The Green Lantern

    At least I'm not the only one who made the mistake. :D In my case I waited for a few minutes hoping that the cartoon was just the intro.

    Don't let Apple Corp dictate whats in a receiver

    I'm not. Besides, they are not equal. Bose makes overpriced products, Apple, on the other hand, well... Bose sues competitors and non-competitors while Apple just sues competitors who copy Apple's products' "look and feel", whatever that means. :D See? The two cannot be equated. :D...

    How loud is too loud?

    In my case, I listen at -15dB on my 75 wpc Denon receiver and the sensitivity of my left and right front speakers are 86 dB while the center is 89 dB. Is that too loud or just right considering my speakers' sensitivity? Without a SPL meter, I could not get the decibels from my listening position.

    I'm in that market and certainly am a big mass but I don't need/want Apple and Bose. :eek:

    Neighbor is complaining about bass (need advice)

    Oh no, the Philippines is not that bad. If you have 3 Hsus, I won't deprive both of us the pleasure. :cool:

    Neighbor is complaining about bass (need advice)

    Or, like me, I show them my M4 assault rifle and tell them that it is louder and would drown out any complaints. Hey, I live in a third world country. It pays to have high-powered implements that could produce a lot of decibels when needed. :D

    Denon 1912 Settings!!!

    LPF and LFE Really? Audyssey is of a different opinion: "It is not a good idea to use the LFE+Main mode. That mode sends the bass to both the subs and the speakers and often leads to improper responses in the overlap region. We recommend to always set the subs in LFE mode in the pre-pro or...

    DIY cables rule

    Klipsch Synergy F-30 Speaker System Review

    It's an adverb, alright, but it still sounds awkward. Why not "Identifying Legitimate High-Fidelity Speakers?" Anyway, no big deal.

    speaker burn in

    Yes. It's not wise and easy to try to follow the crowd when you alone are inside the box. Unless, of course, you have the longevity to wait until the box is completely broken because of "wear and tear" due to "constant heating and vibration" after "prolonged use". :rolleyes::D

    speaker burn in

    I, for one, would like to believe in speaker burn in. I want my cheap Wharfedale Diamond 10.1 to sound like the Revel Salon 2 tomorrow. Or, since you guys are talking about violins, to speakers that bear that illustrious name - Sonus Faber Stradivarius. :D

    Denon 1911 vs 1912 vs 2112

    Regarding 24-bit/96 kHz flac, I convert to dvd using Lplex, burn and play them on a dvd player that reads 24-bit/96kHz files.
