    Yamaha RX-V2600 or Denon 3805

    I am a long term user of the Yamaha RX-V2600 and think its the best receiver they have made since the RX-Z9. IMO it is a stellar processor and also have a very good amp section, powerful enough to drive your axioms just fine. The Denon AVR-3806 is also a great receiver too but doesn't have all...

    Genesis Reunion

    I have the Invisible Touch DVD and its ok but the song selection is a bit lacking. I also don't like the fact that they sped up the tempo of Ababac. I have a few other VHS tapes where they did In the Cage (I believe its 3 sides live tour) and it was great, but they cut some of the songs off to...

    Some Schools Are Leaving Recess Behind

    I couldn't agree with you more. Both my brother and my cousin are teachers in the public school system in Florida. They and other teachers have confirmed that the only way teachers get a raise here is if their students do well on the FCAD's. This is one of many reasons why I have my child in...

    Sound Advice Great Customer Support

    I recently purchased a 56" 1080p DLP Toshiba Display. About 2 weeks into owning it, the fan started to become unbearably loud and I was hearing high frequency power supply noise from the speakers. The first time I called, they were setting up a service call for it to be done on June 6th...

    Auralex Monitor Isolation Pads (MoPADs) Review

    Don't expect a night and day difference. The extent of its effectiveness is dependent on how resonant the cabinet you have your speakers on top of as well as the speaker cabinets themselves. In my case, my speaker cabinets are an extremely inert, but the cabinet they are placed on top of...

    Genesis Reunion

    Wot Gorilla? I will believe the articles and the band when I see booked tour dates. Until then, I will treat this as science fiction ;) BTW, all this talk about Genesis inspired me pop in my "The Way We Walk" concert VHS Tape. Show me a rock band today that can top the Firth or Fifth...

    Blue Jeans 10AWG Speaker Cable 5T00UP Review

    The terminations I used were from SpeakerCraft. IMO, they offer some of the best speaker and coax terminations for wallplates. Check out my article on the Audioholics Showcase Home Structured Wiring for useful tips and recommendations. Uh what do you think we are? :rolleyes:

    Power Cord Testing

    In the # of years I have been reviewing equipment, its been rare for me to find amplifiers with poor grounding schemes to even produce the type of scenario you are discussing. That being said, I don't spend much time reviewing ultra expensive esoteric gear, so as Bruno points out, all bets...

    Power Cord Testing

    Most people whom believe in audio cable voodoo aren't reasonable. They reject any form of onbective anaylsis or measurements as proof and they also reject controlled DBTs to eliminate biases. IN fact, some forums BAN the discussion of DBTs! I spent over 2 years debunking cable myths and...
