We have nothing against Seaton as he seems like a straight up guy and his products look nice. I was trying to focus this shootout on more mainstream, established brands. Funky was the exception as they were the first unknown company suggested in this thread. I can't bog down Paul with anymore...

The Insanity of the Speaker / Subwoofer Shootout This should answer a lot of questions The Insanity of the Speaker / Subwoofer Shootout

Update All products have been delivered except for RBH. Their new cabinets wont be ready for the 1010 model so they are submitting a smaller single 12" prototype. They are the smallest sub in the bunch so I hope everyone realizes size does matter in the comparison. There has been some...

HSU In the House! HSU is submitting this Goliath to our shootout: http://hsuresearch.com/products/vtf-15h.html

I stand corrected. :eek: Let me better qualify my statement: I don't know of any 2-way, 2 driver bookshelf speaker that has the output capabilities of the E55s.

I don't know of any 2 way bookshelf speaker that can play as loudly as the E55s. Most bookshelfs will bottom if driven full range at high SPL levels. I discuss this in my review of the E55s.

Thanks guys. I may need a pill for hair loss and chronic backpain but one thing I don't need now and likely won't in the near future is Viagra :D

Yes and I was stupid enough to lift that amp up my flight of steps and place it in my rack by myself. It was the last straw that literally broke my back as I now have 4 herniated discs, and multiple bulging discs in my back. This amp will remain in my rack until either I move, I die, or it...

If your speakers have built in powered subs, connect each of the subs line level to the subwoofer out of your receiver. You can use a y-splitter if your receiver has only 1 sub out.

There is more to an amp than just power output, else we would all us 2000watt DJ amps for home theater. The Denon amp is a very nice sounding amp, its got a great SNR, channel to channel isolation, and is very dynamic. If I had my HDMI analyzer back when I measured it, I suspect the dynamic...

No in fact it may be helpful in most cases to give these speakers a little bass boost. As long as you leave at least 5-6 inches of clearance between the ports and wall you should be ok. If you get closer, you can always plug the ports. You should be using a powered sub with these speakers...

Passive biamping can be beneficial for achieving more bass control by having a dedicated amp power the woofers and another amp driving the mid/tweet section. These speakers have a high impedance at bass frequencies and are real easy for an amp to drive. If you've got a solid amp already, its...

Here is our official review of the EMP E55Ti Towers http://www.audioholics.com/reviews/speakers/floorstanding/emptek-e55ti

It was a good show till they brought in Robin Williams to do Mork and the Fonz wore a leather jacket to go water skiing and the Joanie loves Chachi crap. These cheese factor got unbearable at that point.

The Harman products that support this are newer and have the newer HDMI chipsets.

Guys lets not dwindle on the past. Mistakes were made on both ends and to be honest, I'd rather be friends with everyone if possible. All of the people we had issues with at SVS are no longer employees there. Ed Mullen and Ron Stimpson are running a tight ship now and we are glad to be on...

The frequency of our reviews haven't changed much over the last year or two. We are just being smarter offering more content for better SEO to compete with everyone else. Our reviews are NOT typical in this industry and it was killing us not updating the site daily b/c we were spending too...

Our review process is intensive as you know. I just finished a 5k word review of the new EMP E55Tis. We simply cant churn out a new review every day given how much time and detail we put into our reviews. Thus, we came up with First Look and Preview articles which are on the level of what...

Reading the comments in this thread almost feels like I'm on AVS. You guys seriously need to lighten up. The guy (Andrew Dash) that did the video preview for us liked them. I personally don't care for the Klipsch sound and wouldn't recommend them to people seeking a more tonally neutral...

hmm sounds like a manufacturers defect but you found a work around. You should contact EMP about this. Nobody should have to jerry rig a product to make it work correctly. I just did some intensive sweeps of the E55 to check for cabinet resonance and it was solid. I initially found a buzz...
