Anyone is welcome to register to our event. I don't have any direct contact with Roger but I'd be willing to waive his registration fee if he would like to attend simply b/c he is an industry insider and has been a veteran of it for so long. for demo rooms thats true, but I am still signing...

No necessarily. You can run them in parallel and take an average distance and calibrate them with both pairs running at the same time like 1 bigger speaker but it usually isn't as good as running them with independent trim and delay settings. Its definately worth a try though.

Our demo rooms are already packed with equipment from our sponsors so there is no availability. Honestly I am not a big fan of line array type speakers using all the same drivers like those. A 3 1/2" mid is too small to be a good woof and too big to be a good tweet IMO and they usually involve...

Some and I need to write this up. Audio Precision and Sencore will be showing off test gear.

Yes though I did miss the words in the opening song which makes Behind the Lines so powerful. Come to think of it, I think I will listen to Duke on SACD tonight. :D

Huh? what does streaming HD material have to do with our event? There will be blu ray players in every room and you can be sure everything will be running hi def.

you really need a receiver/preamp with independent channel trims and delays to run multiple surrounds. I don't recommend paralleling 2 pairs of surround speakers of just 2 channels as you will likely not be able to level match and time align. My personal preference is direct radiators (mono...

Great actor and nice guy, lets hope he pulls through this one: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080804/ap_on_en_mo/morgan_freeman

By Duke, I meant the main song from the album Duke but I can see what you mean . I always referred to Behind the Lines as Duke since I was a kid. Also at the end of Cinema Show if I am not mistaken, they blend it into the last song from the Duke Album via an instrumental when they usually...

The idea with the AS-EQ1 is to use one unit with two subs properly placed and equadistant from the listening area. Thus 4 subs require 2 units. The SMS-1 is virtually useless unless you have a more accurate way of measuring the response such as a 1/12th octave or better audio analyzer. I...

You may want to rethink that b/c I am likely not throwing another SOTU event for a few years. It's a lot of work and effort to get people registered and we could all use a break for a while on these.

of course those attending our SOTU event will get the geniune article for FREE ;)

What errors? I am interesting to know if I called out a song title wrong or something since I am familiar with all things Genesis :eek:

This is surprising as I have found the 5805 to sound stellar in Bi-amp mode. Its got the largest power supply ever put in a receiver and a superb DAC section. You may want to make sure the amps are level matched will making this comparison. Also make sure the bass management is disabled on...

I lost all interest in XM radio when they discontinued the Progressive Rock channel.

you can use the standalone Audyssey mic and preamp and do 32 point calibration. The 5805 mkii lacks the added memory module to do this. See: http://www.audioholics.com/news/trade-show-coverage/2006-cedia-expo/denon-avr-5805ci-av-receiver for more details.

5805 only scales up to 1080i 5805 mkii - scales to 1080p, and has an extra HDMI input 5805CI - does everything mkii does but also has provision for internet radio and can accomodate Audyssey pro calibration all 3 units however are limited to HDMI 1.1....

I installed an RX-V1 for a good friend of mine about 7-8 years ago. He recently had a channel go out and I simply replaced the preamp couplers with new jumpers and it worked fine. I did hear of cases where the preamp / preout jacks get defective over time needing replacement. You may want to...

Guys; Here is my podcast interview with Daryl! http://www.avrant.com/?p=316#comment-1435

When XM first came out, it was touted as "CD Audio Quality". I notice they don't claim that anymore. In addition, how convenience also must be portable which Satellite radio currently isn't. Lack of portability, and poor sound quality are two major strikes againt these services IMO.
