Just got off the phone with Crown, the guy I spoke with had never heard of anything like this, said to send it in which I will do later today. He also told me that the failure rate of these is about 1 in 700, so it appears to be really bad luck. I bought it used, but if it was made in the last...

I think I blew my crown xls2500 last night! I noticed that the imaging was a bit off while listening and went to check the gains, sure enough one was at about 75% instead of the usual 100%. When I turned it up a very high frequency came through the amp along with the source material. Now with...

Great thread! This is Opie, he is almost 14 months, English Bulldog. First pic is as a puppy the last two are recent.

I have had my 2500 for about a month now and I am loving it. I never got into any filtering since after hooking it up I was measuring +-4 dBA from 100-25Hz with my sub kicking in at about 50Hz. I have the gain at about 75% and rarely run my volume on my pre beyond -20. This amp has really...

So last night I played around for a while and it looks like the noise is from my cable box. I think the receiver may still be acting a little off though. I was getting noise with all my rca connections running but with the cable box and amp unplugged (no power) and just the crown on. Is this...

I am using my HK as a pre out which runs to a crown xls2500 to power my mains. With just my crown on I have an almost inaudible hum(I have to put my ear almost touching the tweeter and then it is barely audible). When the HK turns on I get a large increase in this hum, it can be heard 8-10 feet...

I could get to 1/6th, not sure I have any sound level meters that can get me to 1/12th though. I believe the NA28 sells for around 5-6k, I work in environmental acoustics/vibration so I have access to alot of toys.

I plan on setting one of these up on a tripod, Sound level meter and 1/3 octave band real-time analyzer NA-28 RION CO., LTD. The plan then is to blast pink noise, monitor the 3rd octave levels, and adjust as needed. I think this will be more efficient than sending out individual tones and...

Thanks! I am hoping that between the high pass on the XLS and the low pass on my sub (rythmik f15hp) that I will be able to get a better integration than I have now as I am sending full range signal from the 3490 to both the sub and mains and only using the LPF on the sub.

I have a xls 2500 on the way that is going to be used to power a pair of magnepan 1.6's through a HK 3490. Can I use the high pass filter on the crown for bass management? Thanks!

Adam, how are you liking the dual subs up front? I am thinking of doing a similar setup. Was it a huge increase over a single sub?

So I actually ended up getting the Rythnmik f15HP. Does anyone run dual subs that are closely located? I am thinking about adding another but the only place for it would be a few feet away from the other. I have attached a pic. The SVS is set up to the right of the tv, where the rythmik will go...

2 Subs is, unfortunately, not an option. After a little more playing I got the PB12nsd to sound quite good! I also just went and looked at the data from the reviews of the PB12 and the Ultra and my mind is made up to purchase the Ultra. With the 12 there were some bass lines where I could...

Thanks for the responses everyone. My needs are slightly different now as i found a great deal on some used Maggie 1.6's and now have them set up in my large living room. So, I am now thinking of the PC13ultra or the FV15HP or any other recommendations, max price is the price of the PC13ultra...

Hi everyone, so I am upgrading the speakers/sub in my theater and am going to move the current front theater setup, and possibly the sub, into my living room for 2.1 music. The theater is 12x15 and is currently running a pb12-nsd, the older bash amp version, and it does well in this space...

The theater sounds incredible, I am making this move to get better sound in my living room, where i presently am running 10 year old infinity entra 2's. The space is 16x34x9. The main listening area is only about 12 feet from the speakers. I know that the VGB's would having a hard time filling...

Hello everyone, so I got the upgrade itch and would like a little help! In my theater (15x12, 9ft ceiling) right now i am running the SVS sts02 package with a pb12nsd. I am looking to bring the towers and center into the living room and buying 3 Aperion VGB's to replace them. How much of an...
