    Has anyone done a pro review on these? If so I haven't seen it. Also looking for a freq response graph on these.

    impedence

    I can't seem to find the thread that was recently posted on here, concerning impedence between the pre/pro and amp. The reason I'm looking is, I don't seem to have a wide usable volume range from my pre. I have to get up to half volume to be at what I would consider a soft volume. From there it...

    A little off balance

    This is going to showcase some ignorance on my part but, I feel I got somewhat deceived by the company I bought my amp from. The company states my two channel amp is fully differential. Come to find out, that only applies to the input. :confused: The amp has XLR inputs but is not fully balanced...

    OPPO BDP 105 receiver?

    Oppo has long been recommended as the top o the heap in blue-ray. With that in mind, given the capabilities of the unit, at least as far as I can tell, would this make a good pre/pro? I dont need multi zone or a lot of the features offered with current AVRs. All I really need is 5.1 HT and 2.1...

    need to decompress

    Flippin compressed garbage. Wish I could stuff one of those record producers in a box, bury him 6 feet under and force him to listen to the garbage they pump out at excrutiating volumes until he dies. Then i'd dig him up and feed his corpse to a zombie horde. Just picked up a matchbox 20 cd and...

    Wpc

    Ok time for me to go to school. If this has been posted I have not seen it and google has been no help. How do you determine wpc all channels driven on an avr that only gives 2 channel spec? Im sure this has probably been explained a hundre times but thanks in advance for your help.

    Unversal remote

    I'm looking at the Logitech Harmony line of remotes. On Ebay there are two different remotes listed as the Harmony One. Is the Ultimate newer than the One or vise-versa? Does anyone know which one is which? Which one is better? Photos to help with the confusion would be great. Thanks.

    Hi-end?

    What dictates whether or not a component is high end? Is it the materials it's made from? Is it a performance specification? Maybe it has to do with the price. The lines between low, mid, and hi fi, seem to be a bit blurred. Thoughts?

    $10,000

    I thought a system recommendation on this budget would be interesting. Guidlines: Do not include a display or projector. Most people allready have a display of some sort. Do not include furniture, ie racks, ent. centers, audio cabinets, I feel these things can be built bought used or something...

    what print?

    I think i'm experiencing the same thing as Mark. xlr thread under subwoofers is now acting up. I click on it to see a reply post, and it blows up to some huge format and no posts. Anyone else? Whats going on?

    xlr

    Do any sub companies make a sub with balanced inputs under $1000? I dont have room for the huge enclosures like the PB 12 and 13. Will eventually go dual subs and would like to be under 2k for both. Having trouble finding any in this price range. Thanks in advance for your input.

    EQ's

    I used to have a Kenwood GE1100 12 band eq. Had reverb, pink noise generator, was cool to look at and play with. Was just wondering if anybody is still running an eq. What are some thoughts on eq's in general. Does anybody still make a quality eq? Graphic or parametric?

    quality recordings

    101 pages of posts, I can't read them all. If this has been covered please indulge me, Thanks in advance. I've read that DDD recorded cd's have the best sound quality. Does that mean they have stuck to the original source as close as possible, or they sound the best with speakers capable of...

    contests

    Are they still doing monthly contest giveaways :confused: The threads don't seem to be very recent, and the winners list only goes to aug 2010. Audioholics doesn't owe me a thing and I don't want to sound like i'm sitting here with my hand out. Just curious, whats the deal?

    I've decided

    After a long couple of months, I've decided to go Ascend Sierra towers, Sierra horizon center, Sierra-2 for my rears, all with RAAL tweeter, Rythmiks D15se. Everything in piano black. I would like to thank everyone who was kind enough to answer my questions and give their valued opinions.

    Ascend

    I have decided to go with the Ascend Sierra towers. 2 channel music was the main use of my build. The horizon is the timbre matched center for the towers, rated 300 w/ch, but what about rears. I would like to have rears with the same w/ch as the center, or doesnt this matter? Anyone have these...

    Cant make up my mind

    This probably gets asked a lot, but who makes the best sounding speaker for both low volume and just plain too loud rockin out. I realise this is a highly subjective question, but im in the market and have a limited number of brands I can actually audition. I live in the midwest and with the...
