DS-21 is a......quite a character ;) He's been banned or blocked from many forums including ours and has been known to misquote people like Dr. Floyd Toole for example who had to come in here and slap him down. His textbook approach to things is very 2 dimensional and it's obvious he lacks...

I asked Steve to place it in the soon to be revamped $5k 2CH System along with a pair of NHT towers and Aperion Verus Tower alternative. Should make for a great center piece.

BTW this Onkyo looks pretty killer actually: Reference Hi-Fi | Audiophile | Premium Sound | A-9070 | Onkyo USA Too bad Onkyo completely ignores online AV sites as I am confident this would review and measure well. This looks nice and meaty like their old stuff.

No oddly they sent us the active speakers with a sub. I would have preferred the passive speakers but it is what it is.

That's awesome. I didn't quite feel that with the SS8s but i really enjoyed the little prototype bookshelf speakers Jim brought. We will one day have to formally review a pair of the SS8s and give them a second, closer look.

Thanks for the insights. Not everyone is going to agree on choices. We put these systems together based on personal experience, reviews and ease of availability to our readers. They are not a biblical source. Personally the Kef 700s weren't my top choice speaker in this price range but some...

The Salks are nice speakers to be sure. In fact aesthetically they kill the Kef and RBH products. However I'm quite partial to the Scan Speak 9500 tweeter used in the RBH's and the dual mids of the MTM. Such a huge open soundstage with unlimited dynamics. I'd much prefer the Emotiva...

Yes this should be a fun review and comparison. Not sure about the ratings of the diff amps. Sometimes things are speced differently to inflate power output #s. I test out to the limit of my test gear which is 80Khz but I don't power sweep amps (especially Class D) passed 20kHz.

Not all ID manufacturers. Only a select few are truly giving you better performance per dollar than the B&M competitors. This can clearly be seen in our tabulated reports and reviews.

Yes I will be conducting the review and testing of this amp with the very same reference gear, speakers, test loads, etc. I also still have the XPR-1's as my reference amp.

We have a downloadable and printable spreadsheet of EVERY SUB we've EVER tested that compares specs, output, room size rating, etc for you to make that determination. It's posted on EVERY subwoofer review as well as our measurement standard. You should be able to find 1-2 alternative options...

Thanks I corrected it. And I also correctly talked about the resistive load in the measurement portion of Tom's review.

Herb; thanks for your invaluable feedback and support. I know this is a challenge to offer this kind of service especially when all of our other content is free to the public. With our traffic being so enormous and over 60% of it being new visitors, I figured it would be a good opportunity to...

Sure I don't see a problem with that. However I didn't write all of the content for the Ebooks. This was a collective effort of our senior staff so it's probably more accurate to quote Audioholics as the source more so than me. Which ebooks have you purchased from us? How do you like them...

Hi guys, we are starting to roll out our membership services. Phase 1 is our EBooks with Forum Support: Audioholics E-Book Membership Program! | Audioholics

Their sub measures pretty darn well for only $429. Stay tuned for our review of their sub and powered monitors in about a month.

Richard; It still works for me. Here is the direct link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZUCoK4qyls

Assuming your referring to the Emotiva XPR-1 as being overpriced, I think you are greatly mistaken. A monoblock of this caliber would easily sell for $5k if it wasn't sold direct and had a fancier nameplate.

That's what SVS is for. The SB-1000 or preferably the SB-2000 which will get you fairly close to the e110's performance for less money.
