There are more power efficient speakers out there such as horn loaded stuff from Klipsch. But, the design goal for Titus wasn't ultimate efficiency as much as unlimited dynamic range, wide frequency response, low distortion and an immense soundstage. The only higher plateau I could think of...

I didn't list dimensions and will give more room details in my acoustics article. The main theater room is a sort of L shaped room thats total dimensions are 27'x28' but the theater portion is 15' x 28'.

What's the point? If the speakers are identical only one has a 4 ohm impedance profile and the other an 8 ohm profile then they will play equally loud if driven at the same power level. Realize however if the amp is putting out 1 watt to an 8 ohm speaker and you suddenly switch to the 4 ohm...

I am only 32 years old and this thing says I will die in 15 years! The stupid clock thinks I have a bad BMI b/c I am 5'11" and weigh 205lbs. It doesn't factor in lean body mass and just assumes I am fat :rolleyes: I guess I better start enjoy my new Showcase home before its too late :eek...

Radio Shack connectors are gear rippers to say the least. I used to have some of their RCA cables and I broke off a few connectors on VCR's when trying to remove them. Getting the cheapest cables isn't always the smartest purchasing decision. I would suggest spending a little more and...

You haven't experienced a party till you partied with Colombians. We are going to my wife's uncle house today. There will be about 80-100 people. They will be watching the game on a 106" Front Projector system with an RBH T3 system that I installed. Food will be: Shredded pork - the...

and you factor in the price of a separate CD/DVD-A player and the Oppo and you are at the price range of a single Denon solution that does it all in one box with superior build quality, durability and the ability to do 480p via component video outputs to a second zone :rolleyes:

A very valid point. I am finding the RX-V2600 runs pretty warm despite I am using it as a pre/pro only in my Family Room system. I was thinking about cutting the power between the rails and the amp section to eliminate this problem, but this isn't a tweak I would advise consumers to do.

Oh geez here we go again :rolleyes: What a deservice to good engineering when people misinterpret the results of a limited test procedure by declaring b/c the player scored equally or better to the industries current best DVD player that the two players are on equal footing. See...

Just to clarify, that is based on their limited testing. The Oppo is in no way comparible to the Denon DVD-2910 (as a whole package) let alone the 5910. It's like comparing 0-60 times and handling prowess of a Corvette Z06 vs a Kia Sophia in a driveway. We tested the Oppo and found it to be...

We are spreading everywhere like a virus :D

Titus for front speakers, Titus center (no subs) , 66-SE for side channels (for now) and SI-740 with Status upgrades for back channels. I am toying with adding 2 Velodyne DD12s or DD15s behind the listener for LFE channel.

I am managing slowly but surely but as the 400lb speakers come, I may elect bodybuilders from the forum to help me lift them up a flight of steps :D This house isn't open to the public, especially if your a snake oil salesman, I mean exotic cable vendor :D

No and its not important to keep the cables the same length. Just don't make 1 cable 10ft and the other 1000ft and you will be fine. I am using 2 cables per speaker since I am biamping the front speakers. 10/2 means 10AWG, 2 conductor. If you are using 53 feet, I recommend using 10/2 and you...

John; If you can spring a bit more, try the Rocket ULW-10 with SOS bass correction. Its a great sub for the money. Rocket ULW-10 Review

Sure so we can do more drilling here :rolleyes: Yes yet we are expected to pay the expense of adding more refineries. :confused:

Here is what I recommend all the way around. BIGGER is always BETTER and ALL CHANNELS DRIVEN BABY! :rolleyes:
