I seem to recall a few years ago that there were a lot more actual reviews than just previews. Now it seems like everything is a preview, and a lot of stuff that gets previewed never actually ends up getting reviewed. What gives? I don't mean to come off as rude or ungrateful, because I really...

I really don't understand how ohms, amps, and watts work together. Every time I've tried to look up an explanation of these things, they blow my mind. Could someone please explain this to me, as if I were five years old? My system is in my signature, and I'd like to know how much power my...

Custom IMAX Sound by Eminence Pro Audio Theatre Speakers Cinema's Best | eBay That's pretty cool!

I'm just curious as to what causes AVR's to make clicking noises when: 1. They turn on 2. A few seconds after they turn on, and then sound and video are output. 3. Sometimes changing sound modes from Surround to Stereo for example. 4. Muting and un-muting. Why do they do this, and what...

Hey guys, Lately (within the past couple of days), my AVR's audio has been cutting out (very frequently, when I first turn it on.) I first had noticed it with my computer (which the receiver is connected to via SPDIF.) It kept switching from Digital to Analog and wouldn't lock down to the...

Seriously. I was just playing it, and turned on my surround back speakers, and was totally immersed in it, and it's quite terrifying... I still don't know why I bought it...and the second one at the same time. I can't even play them!

I went and saw The Dark Knight Rises tonight, which was great. It was great, except for the fact that the audio was so loud that near the end of the movie, I had to put my earbuds in to dampen the sound. Now, I know that, yeah, it's The Dark Knight, and it's a big fun movie, but do the theater...

As many of you know, I live in an apartment, so I don't use my subwoofer. I've just started thinking about getting a ButtKicker for my couch, though I'm wondering if it'll be a bad idea in my apartment. Thanks in advance for any advice!

Hey all! So, I went to University and got into a Music program. Long story short, it wasn't working so I dropped out and am now living in an apartment and am working instead. Thought I'd show off the new digs and setup I've got going on :) Denon-AVR3311CI Playstation 3 LG LDA-530...

Hi all, long time no see! I just recently moved into an apartment and have my Denon AVR-3311 hooked up in the living room to my 46" Samsung. I also have another new smaller Samsung in my bedroom, and I'd like to be able to watch what is playing through the receiver on the other TV. The problem...

My Denon has been freezing lately, out of the blue, and it's getting very frustrating. It froze a long time ago once using the "Source Select" function on the remote (which I never use anyways; I'd accidentally pushed it, but still..), and lately it has been freezing more often. It...

Hello all! Some history to start this off! :) I'd bought a brand new Rickenbacker 4003 bass last year, got it and absolutely hated it (but that's another story) so I sold it, and bought myself some Paradigms instead, then a TV later, and Playstation, and here we are! (Top to bottom)...

I'm looking at getting a 42" 1080P television to replace my 27" Sony CRT and am wondering if I will notice any big differences between LCD and Plasma. I might use it with my laptop as well, so that might be a consideration to go with an LCD over a plasma, but what are the main pros and cons...

I just hooked up my new Denon, and have the following issue. I want the Playstation to output audio over HDMI, and to output video over composite. I have the composite connection hooked up to the "BD" input on the receiver, and the HDMI hooked up to HDMI-1. The output from the receiver to the...

What's a "Pre-Pro"? Is it a pre-processor? If so, pre-what? Is it the amplifier? How does it work? I know that you can buy separates (ie an amplifier and processor) so what's a pre-pro?

Hey all, I'm looking at getting a new receiver, but I have no idea what to settle on. I'm sort of steering away from the Denon's because I've heard that they aren't the most reliable right now. With that in mind though, I've been looking at: Denon AVR-2310 or AVR-2311 Onkyo TX-NR708 or...

Hey guys, I'm thinking of getting a new TV (some sort of Samsung, not quite sure on the size yet.) and a receiver to finish off my project I've started. I bought a PS3, new speakers, and now the rest of it's getting to me! I'm looking at the Marantz SR7002 from Accessories4less, but have...

Hey guys, I am thinking of buying an AVR off of eBay, because I can get them there much cheaper than in Canada, for whatever reason. I was talking to a guy at an audio store that I frequent, and he'd said that if I buy an AVR from the states, that I won't get the warranty included for it...

I exchanged my Romancas for some Paradigms and I'm very excited for tomorrow. Here's what I got: Fronts: Monitor 7's Center: CC-190 Rears: Mini Monitors I'm very excited to set up the new speakers tomorrow night :) It seems that a lot of people here have the Monitor 7's. Thoughts?

Hi all, As some of you may know, I've been looking for speakers lately, and I finally went into an audio store in Edmonton that I like. I was looking particularly at the Paradigm speakers, and they kept directing me to this other brand which I've never heard of before called Romanca. I...
