    What New Stuff Have You Bought? If You Care To Share Thead! :)

    That's quite a haul! Al Stewart's “Nostradamus” and the beautifully haunting “Roads to Moscow” are classics, as are some of the Grand Funk tunes. On the Canadian Rock collection there's some gems like High School Confidential, Patio Lanterns, and there's even a hit by Klaatu. I could go on and...

    Looking for help in orienting speaker layout to this room

    Like @lovinthehd I'm not a huge fan of placing TVs above the Fireplace, but in situations like yours it's really the only practical solution - especially with all those windows. But I'd recommend getting a Fireplace TV Mount (bracket) that pulls down. (Just type that into your search engine as...

    What New Stuff Have You Bought? If You Care To Share Thead! :)

    I'm only part way into the Concert but dam the bass was overwhelming. I typically have my Subs set at +4 each after Audyessy 32 is finished with the Atmos system's set up. But after about the second or third performance I had to throttle it back to +2. So far I'm liking the show and the Atmos...

    What New Stuff Have You Bought? If You Care To Share Thead! :)

    This was a gift from my youngest son for my birthday. (I typically give them a list for guidance as I'm terrible to buy something for.) I thought I'd stretch myself outside of my typical Rock / Blues/Pop universe. And I wanted another Atmos disk at the same time. The review were good so I'm...

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    The system I referenced has a Klipsch WA-2 Wireless Kit that plugged right into the Sub, and was powered by the Sub. For the receiver end- The Transmitter end had an adapter you plugged into the wall. I know Rocketfish had a Kit as I've got one stored somewhere around here that I got cheap...

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    As @Golfx said, the AVR compensates during setup for the extra delay. Yes, you'd have to set it up again after installing the wireless adapter.

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor) strikes again! My only suggestion would be to do the Sub-woofer crawl to find the next best (acceptable?) location. If the Sub RCA cable is an issue look into a wireless adapter. I had to do that for the Family Room Klipsch Sub after the Great Reno of 2018! It...

    Looking for AM/FM receiver

    This sounds exactly like an: Amazon Echo Dot (3rd Gen) Smart speaker with Alexa - I have a couple of them just to integrate Spotify into a small system I have in the garage at the Cabin, and a small system by the Dining Room table at home. They work fabulously with Spotify. All you need...

    Looking for AM/FM receiver

    I like good sound sources but we have Spotify on a Family plan where a handful of us all listen to whatever we want commercial free. It's really for casual listening as it's not lossless but the selection is immense. I use it mostly off my iPhone onto Bluetooth Headphones when I'm working around...

    Looking for AM/FM receiver

    I used to be a big fan of AM/FM radio in my youth, but I've found it lacking in recent times (like the last decade or so). I'm much more into streaming for casual listening and only listen to radio in my car on a sports station. I'd encourage you to take a look at this option instead of internet...

    Zone 2 on an old Denon AVR-S900W?

    Hi Gents, I just thought I'd put this thread to bed, as I'm beating a dead horse with this old Denon trying to get it to work the way I want. I've come to realize the easiest way was to just go with the flow, and start the Denon with the Mains turned all the way down by default, and fed via...

    Going Dual, add another sealed or replace with dual ported subs?

    I checked last night and as far as I can tell Amir has only reviewed 5 Subs total.

    Will BIG 4k TV's take over the market!!

    In our Games Room we have a 75 inch 4K Samsung connected to our Dolby Atmos System (7.2.4). When we bought it my wife tapped out at that size, while I was ready to pull the trigger on an 85. (Which was big only a few years ago!) I've always thought bigger is better way back to 37 inch CRT days...

    Windows 11

    Even though I built a new Box last year, I put a "hand me down" GPU (a GTX 1080) from my son's old Gamer Box into it. I only run 1080p on my Dual Monitors (and I feed a 55 inch Samsung via my Denon when I'm in the mood to watch something on it). So I saw no rationale to spend Big $ on a current...
