    Friends, we are days away from flipping the switch to a completely new site folder layout to improve SEO. I need volunteers to test out our 301 redirects. You can take any article URL on the existing site and replace the "audioholics.com" with "audio.monkeytronics.com" and see if it properly...

    Best pair of speakers around $1K with solid state Yamaha AVR?

    I love it when we have fellow Looney Tunes fans posting on this forum. As Bugs Bunny used to say "one's man's meat is another mans poison". This is a very appropriate comment relating to loudspeakers and people's preferences. This article should help you narrow down your choices. Note that...

    Audioholics 2012 GTG Show Report

    The show we had planned for this year was at a very upscale location and many of the sponsors weren't ready to commit in time making it a financially risky proposition for us so we decided to cancel for this year. We will be doing another show next year at a more economical place and look...

    Need more Bass? Use "Extra Bass" feature in your AV Receiver.

    Great post! That is exactly what I am doing in my theater room. I run the Status 8Ts fullrange with no DSP or bass management. My processor is set to "no sub" so all of the summed bass + LFE goes to the front speakers. I then use the L/R preamp outs to connect to my Velodyne DD-15+ subs. I...

    Upgrading The Crossovers in My Polk Monitor 10B's

    You can measure the frequency response change in the system, or dissipation factor, ESR, dielectric absorption, etc, in the capacitors, but none of these metrics will determine subjective audibility.

    Our 2013 Consumer Excellence Award Winners Revealed!

    Again this is a paid entry award program, EXACTLY like the print magazines do. If you don't enter, you're not a contestant. Also the RBH will likely have more output than the funk since it's got 2 dual 12" drivers in a ported enclosure. Josh will be getting a sample in about 1 month. Andrew...

    Status Acoustics Titus 8T Floorstanding Speaker System Review

    I'm fairly young but already have severe back issues thanks to years of bodybuilding and lifting heavy audio gear. I don't have to move these speakers, I have audio around the house to listen in any room ;)

    Status Acoustics Titus 8T Floorstanding Speaker System Review

    Well the closest speaker I've heard to these are the RBH T30s that sell for about 20k/pair. But, the Status version really is superior in bass output and how it integrates bass in the room. I am using NO EQ with these speakers and very min EQ on my external 2 powered subs to get uniform...
