Hi all we recently purchased a home where the media room is 2700^. I've had PSB B6s for years and have enjoyed them, but I'd like to have a very clean look in the new room and am considering on-walls for the LR. Higher sensitivity/SPL is desirable. Use will be primarily movies. Axiom and HSU...

Hello All--I am trying to determine the best setup for a difficult room. I currently have the 60" screen, AV cabinet and my right speaker on an 80" wall that opens to a small foyer to the left and a semi-wall that forms the left section of an archway into the dining room. The sofa is by...

So the new house is lovely but it's an old chicago frame with small rooms. The living room is my only option for my av setup and it's only 12 x 11 x 8. I'd recently scored a pair of Boston Acoustics T1000s and was looking forward to recapping them. I'm looking for opinions as to whether these...

Hello Gurus--First of all, I feel compelled to apologize because it seems I only show up on the forums when I have questions or need advice. I read almost every thread, but the depth and breadth of knowledge here can be intimidating and I guess I feel like I have little to offer that can...

Hey, All--Please forgive what may be a stupid, perhaps silly question, but this has perplexed me. When reviewing a speaker, or for that matter, any piece of audio gear, at what volume is the reviewer listening? Is this information located in some obscure chart that I'm somehow missing, and if...

Hello again, gurus. Now that I have added a decent sub to my modest system, the next step for me is to start researching speakers that might provide a bit of improvement. I enjoy the PSBs very much--they are accurate and, I think, slightly "warm" in their presentation--I like the PSB sound...

HSU VTF-1...$325 Dayton Titanic Mk2...$175 Hi all, I am finally in a position to upgrade to a better sub--the past several months have seen a few crisis that eliminated my discretionary funds, but now I'm back on the hunt for a subwoofer to improve my system. These two choices intrigue me. Any...

Hey guys, there's an MK1 for sale on Craigs for $125.00. I know this is an old sub, but if it tests ok would this be a fair price? My room is only around 1100 cubic, but this might be a way for me to finally upgrade my POS Sony. Money's been tight. Thanks!

Hello guys--Audiogon has the NAD at a fair price. I always have liked NAD, I owned an integrated years ago (don't remember the model) that I loved. As I continue my quest to put together my modest system, I would like your opinions on this receiver, and whether you think it would be a...

Hey guys, I'm dedicating an old laptop as a media center and plan on playing hi-def tracks with VLC through the home rig. I've already experimented with an audio y splitter from the headphone jack to the aux on my Denon avr591 and now I want to upgrade with a good USB DAC. How about Dragonfly...

Hello audioholics. My second post and second query! My listening room is 12 x 12, approximately 1300 cubic feet. I recently tweaked my system a little bit and have PSB Image B5 fronts, Image C5 and Tannoy Mercury VRs wall-mounted as rears. Denon AVR 591 driving the speakers, Sony PS3 for media...

Hi all, I've been an enthusiastic lurker for some time and a brand new member--wonderful wonderful site and superb source of info via these forums! I am in the process of refining a small media room. It measures 10 x 12 with my gear arrayed on the short wall, listening position approximately 11'...
