    Power cord for Emotiva Sub 12

    Open the bottom of the box. The power cord and feet should be there. I thought the same when I got my review sample.

    Pass Labs Concept Amplifiers Preview

    I believe they soak the output devices in kosher chicken fat blessed by a Rabi before assembling the amp. It's a rather time consuming and expensive process so that may partially explain the higher than usual price tag :D

    Starbucks is the Bose of coffee IMO. Try some Juan Valdez sometime and you will never drink that drudge again :eek:

    SVS PB12-Plus DSP Subwoofer Review

    you guys crack me up. Either people complain b/c our ratings are too high for a product or b/c we are too critical and the ratings are too low. The SVS sub got one of the most glowing reviews to date of any sub we've ever reviewed so quit your b1tch'n! :rolleyes:

    What happened to the Lava sub review?

    Yes the original reviewer went AWOL on us. We thankfully got the subwoofer back and are now in the process of sending it to another (very trusted and experienced) reviewer. This should be a good review coming so please be patient.

    Emotiva Ultra 12 Subwoofer Review

    If you read my comments you will notice there was a lot of windnoise the day I was testing the sub. Any measurements below 20Hz would have been wind related. Considering the sub was already 24dB down at 20Hz, any measurements lower would have been pretty meaningless anyways.

    Emotiva Ultra 12 Subwoofer Review

    That shot was taken from Emotiva's website since we couldn't remove the amp as it was not only screwed down but apparently glued as well to reduce any chance of leakage. The cabinet is likely stuffed but the stuffing was removed so you can see the driver and the bracing.

    Yamaha RX-A3000 Aventage 11.2 Networking A/V Receiver Review

    Please re-read the review. There is an entire paragraph about its Networking capabilities which are similar to the RX-Z7 that I exhaustively covered in that review.

    Cross over set at 80Hz!..is this the norm?

    Lot's of misinformation in this thread. As you can read in the article I linked up about setting up multiple subs, simply run Audyssey, then go back and adjust crossover and level control as needed. The Audyssey curves will still be applied. If you run Aud Pro with EXT mic and PC you can go...

    Cross over set at 80Hz!..is this the norm?

    Don't trust Audyssey or any room correction system to set crossover points correctly. If you place a surround speaker close to a wall, the boundary gain will cause them to think its a fullrange speaker and set the crossover point too low or set the speaker to "large". Audyssey don't factor in...

    Yamaha RX-A3000 Aventage 11.2 Networking A/V Receiver Review

    It's old verbiage from prior reviews. For dynamic power, the results are only slightly lower at 0.1% (like 5% lower).

    Yamaha RX-A3000 Aventage 11.2 Networking A/V Receiver Review

    Check the tables again. I did 0.1% for continuous fullbandwidth tests and 1% for ACD or burst tests. This is likely how I will do it going forward to simplify the data and also be more inline with how consumers typically see power measurements in other magazines.

    Yamaha RX-A3000 Aventage 11.2 Networking A/V Receiver Review

    As a fellow RX-Z7 owner, I have no plans/desire to swap out my unit for an RX-A3000 but I also could care less about 3D support. The Z7 is wired to 4 zones of audio in my home and its too much of a hassle to swap it out for a product that basically does everything my Z7 does with a few extra...

    Yamaha RX-A3000 Aventage 11.2 Networking A/V Receiver Review

    Yes but if I were you, I would run all subs via the dual subouts in mono crossed over at 80Hz. Read: Calibration & Setup Techniques for Multi Subwoofer System

    Yamaha RX-A3000 Aventage 11.2 Networking A/V Receiver Review

    The RX-A3000 has quite a large power transformer and big capacitor bank. They are using some pretty sophisticated output devices which I discuss in the review. The amp topology is Class ab just like all prior Yamaha receivers have been. All of this makes it possible for the unit to deliver...
