    Sony Launches New High-End ES Speaker Lineup

    Scan Speak makes some of the best drivers in the world. A few hundred $$$ on drivers per speaker is nothing to snuff at. You would be surprised how inexpensive the drivers that some of the big brands use in their products. That being said, the new Sony speaker lines do look impressive...

    Krell Connect Media Streaming Player Preview

    While I agree with you for the most part, but, there are exceptions. This new Boulder mono block amp is rated at 1500 watts continuous into an 8 ohm load, weighs 400lbs, has 120 output devices and a sliding Class A bias is a work of art. Of course to power a pair of speakers, it will set you...

    Steven Wilson's third solo album already coming!

    Yea I kinda wish he would diversify more in his music. The really great prog rock bands (ie.Genesis, Yes, King Crimson, etc) don't just stick with one sound or chord structure all the time.

    What Cable Gauge Do I Need for my Speakers?

    It doesn't need to address inductance since inductance of standard zip cord is pretty low to begin with, especially at the lengths you are talking about. Resistance is the DOMINANT metric when dealing with losses associated with cables at audio frequencies.

    Emotiva UMC-200 Preamp / Processor Review

    The processor did route fullrange signal to the front left/right channels but the LFE channel contained much of the same bass at greater amplitude. By not having all 4 subs playing the same signal, this was noticed as very weak bass for 5.1 HD music sources. No I don't recommend routing LFE to...

    Emotiva UMC-200 Preamp / Processor Review

    The 105 has an exceptionally good analog output, especially via balanced. It's literally an audiophile dream player. It's a big investment though, especially since you've already got a 93.

    Emotiva UMC-200 Preamp / Processor Review

    No the analog bypass is basically a straight thru connection with a very well implemented analog preamp stage.

    Aperion Audio Intimus 4T Summit Wireless Speaker System Video Review

    We've tested this system thoroughly and heard demos of it numerous times at trade shows. It's solid technology with NO loss of fidelity or dropout issues. The only downside is cost and still needing to plug the speakers into a wall outlet.

    Emotiva UMC-200 Preamp / Processor Review

    Yes I think you've got it. Is your Onkyo supplying bass to the sub channel in "direct" mode for those multi-channel sources? It should be. If you truly have fullrange front channels capable of the same SPL output down to 20Hz as your separate powered subs, I still think the best solution...
