    Denon DVD-A1UDCI Universal Blu-ray Player Official Support Thread

    I think that is normal operation. If you engage D.link 4, it uses its own clock for the audio stream and bypasses HDMI. Thus there is no way the other HDMI output would be able to support audio unless it can also gets that D.link clock. I suspect the D.link clock is bypassed once you have...

    RBH Sound MC-6CT Floorstanding Speaker First Look

    Yes the MC line measures very linear. When I measured a pair of MC6 bookshelfs in my room at 1 meter, they measured like they were in an anechoic chamber, very scary! Don't be afraid to run those towers full range, they have a natural rolloff that prevent's them from bottoming out. I...

    RBH Sound MC-6CT Floorstanding Speaker First Look

    I recommend running these speakers full range and using a split line level subwoofer out to run your subs. If the bass is too intense either use EQ on the sub channels or try running the speakers small using your receivers bass management. Also just try running the RBHs full range with no...

    Elemental Designs A3s-250 Subwoofer First Look

    25Hz is a -3dB point. Its a sealed design so it probably has a very gradual roll off below that and factoring in room gain it should be just fine for home theater duties in small to medium sized rooms as well. This is especially true if your running a pair of them.

    EMP Speakers

    Yes and I believe that have a larger version the TSAT-2000 available now. These systems are a great value and look awesome as well. Very high WAF.

    EMP Speakers

    I highly recommend you consider some tSc On-wall speakers like the ones I reviewed or even the larger models. They should match well with your EMP towers and should also save your marriage in the process. Its a crime not to have surround sound when you're so close.

    House M.D.

    I liked the episode for the most part. The doctor opening up to House on his fathers death bed ws very touching. But House being locked away and attending therapy with crazy people kinda made him too vulnerable and non super human for my taste. I love this show so I am looking forward to...

    Pioneer Phones Home with new ETAP Networking Product

    I agree, if you're home already, what's the point? I think they are just doing it b/c they can. I am more interested in copying blu-ray discs but I don't know of any "content managed" discs that hit the market yet and there will be a fee to do this which again raises the question "what's the...

    EMP Speakers

    It was my fantasy b4 I met my wife to marry a rich girl but in the end LOVE prevailed over wealth. I've never been one for FREE handouts anyways. Being poor for a long period of time builds good character and reminds you of your roots. :D

    EMP Speakers

    Paul that sucks the speakers didn't work out for you. I emailed the E-store staff to make sure they process your return as quickly as possible but they can't find any record of your purchase on file. If you bought directly from EMP, you will have to contact them. Good luck on your search...

    Denon DVD-A1UDCI Universal Blu-ray Player Official Support Thread

    Subjectively I think the D.link sounds better but I don't trust my ears. I think I just like seeing all 3 blue lights illuminate on the front panel. I plan on doing blind tests with/without D.link engaged for blu-ray and have someone else do the switching so I am unaware of what I am listening...

    404?

    thx for pointing out contact link which must have gotten broken with site revamp. RE: 90% of our links broken Really? I'd be surprised if you can list more than 3-4 links that don't work. Feel free to point out broken stuff and we will get it fixed.

    E5Ti Towers vs. JBL L5's

    You should try to A/B them level matched (JBLs are at least 3dB more efficient) to see if you prefer the EMPs over your JBLs. The L series was one of the last good lines from JBL so you may find they perform better than the EMPs. Just b/c something is new, doesn't mean its better. I suspect...

    Um NO. Most RBH dealers hate the fact that RBH has an online brand so don't count on it.

    EMP E5Ti

    I don't believe EMP will end the sale tomorrow but I heard they are running out of cherry finish fast. Don't rush a purchase based on a sale. Only do it when you have the proper finances. Good luck.

    Maybe the exotic cable vendors can sell canned air to speed up the propagation signaling and improve performance. Think about it. Its like air freshener for your audio system :)

    EMP E5Ti Impression Series Speakers - Unbelievable Value

    If you had a 665 I would say get the amp right away but the 663 is a better receiver than the 665 so try your Yammie first and add the XPA-2 later. That is the best amp for the money bar none!

    EMP E5Ti Impression Series Speakers - Unbelievable Value

    The EMPs are a few dB less efficient than typical towers from the mass brands in this price range. What that means is you have to turn up the volume a few dB to compensate. That being said, I tested towers from AV123 that were even less efficient and required more power to truly sound their...
