Try elevating ALL of your cables off the floor to avoid electron misfiring. Some audiophiles swear by it.

I'm trying to figure out if your posting is tongue and cheek. Picture quality cannot improve or get worse with HDMI connections simply by changing your power cables. Either it works (clear picture no sparkles) or it doesn't work at all, or you get sparkles or intermittent audio/video drop...

There is no denying Yamaha NS10s or their Beryllium speakers influence in recording studios, but that's NOT consumer audio hence why they didn't make the list.

Where are the Atmos reflection speakers Andy? :)

Don't worry too much about burn in. New plasmas these days have a refresh that prevents this from being a problem. You also probably have a manual refresh in the menu which you can engage periodically if you like. Take your TV out of torch mode to get a better picture and preserve it's life...

LMAO, NEVER show someone your new toys when you're trying to sell your old ones :)

Satellite speakers are meant to be mated with subs. The speakers in question have a very large dynamic range and output above 80Hz which was a design goal of the speakers.

Looking to start off the New Year for the Audio love with very little space to spare? Klipsch R-10B Soundbar follows-up the company’s HD Theater SB 3 soundbar system we reviewed a few years ago. The R-10B is part of their Reference line demonstrating how the classic speaker manufacturer is...

Hi Michael; Welcome to our forum. Don't waste your money on expensive/exotic cables and be very leery of the snake oil claims many manufacturers such as Audioquest make. It sounds like you already have good, low resistance speaker cables. Resistance is the most important metric with...

If you're surround speakers are placed a few feet above ear level, you've already got elevated sound. Focus more on quality 5 or 7 speakers and dual subs for NOW with good amplification and TrueHD/DTS HD decoding. Atmos in the home is STILL based on TrueHD with added height channels. Unless...

Of course if you design the amp to be fully differential from input to output, use the right amount of feedback, have a robust power supply, etc, you can lower both even and odd order distortions. The type of logic where one should deliberately make a certain type of distortion higher than...

Don't let a few trolls beat you down. It's not uncommon for people that think everything is so black and white are often not seeing the whole picture to come to such rash conclusions.

Having both Pass Labs X350.5 and Emotiva XPR-1 Amps side by side at my place doing listening tests and the most extensive bench tests done in our industry, I'd personally save my money and get the Emotiva's. Pass Lab is a fine amp but I prefer the less expensive, more powerful, less distorted...

Actually they are the Signature Line from Paradigm. Getting ready to install them and do a formal review.
