McIntosh describes the XRT1.1K as “more accessibly sized” than the XRT2.1K. The 1.1K stands 14 inches shorter than the 2.1K, and weighs in 173 pounds lighter. It’s still no featherweight, but McIntosh devotees with less-than-cavernous listening rooms will have an easier time achieving good...

Finally there is an audio expo show right in our own backyards and Audioholics staff will be there to cover it's premier exhibition next *Saturday, February 9th, 2019 from 10am-6pm at the Embassy Suites hotel in Tampa, Florida. If you come to check out the show and listen to all of the great...

The only company I know of that promotes dual center channels is Axiom. IMO, the only time dual centers make sense is in an Auro 3D setup where the 2 centers are discrete channels (ear level vs height), NOT a single mono source.

KEF recently introduced their new LSX wireless speaker system. It offers some unique features, a more compact form factor and arguably better aesthetics over its bigger LS50 brother. The LSX does include a subwoofer output, allowing the user to add both deeper bass and more potent dynamics...

This is an old article that needed a refresh. For those wondering how much to budget on cables and what really matters, I put together this guide and supportive YouTube video to help you out. As a rule of thumb, we recommend spending as little as you can to get the job done right, but no more...

Daredevil season 3 was just amazing. I was crushed when I heard it was not going another season.

I agree with you, especially since I still have Frontier FIOS and it has channels/programs currently not available on any streaming service. I'm bummed out that Daredevil was cancelled by Netflix because of Disney. Now even YouTube is offering pay streaming content. If cable companies want to...

Sadly I've owned a variety of Emotiva amps, most recently the XPR-1's (which I loved) but none of them lasted more than 5 years except the old MPS-1 but even 1 of the 7 modules blew out after about 6 years of ownership. Emotiva claims their latest series of amps with their modular construction...

Disney isn’t completely new to streaming media; within five months of launching the ESPN+ streaming service, the company had amassed a million-strong following of sports fans willing to pay the monthly subscription fee. The new service will reportedly focus quality over quantity, delivering new...

The forum links haven't changed since we moved to this new platform about 2 years ago.

The 2nd graph either has a large vertical scale or it's smoothed or a bit of both.

Interesting combo. You using the Vegas for front main channels and the 901s for surrounds or doing 4CH stereo?

The British subwoofer specialist REL Acoustics has been building audiophile-approved subs since 1990. Their new Serie subs ditch the speaker level connections which they used to favor as the "preferred" connection method and instead went line level only with emphasis on home theater integration...

Let's face it, remote control clutter is a problem most audiophiles face. Programming a good universal remote control can be a daunting task. Amazon is hoping to remove that annoyance with their new Fire TV Cube. The Amazon Fire TV Cube combines the media-streaming capabilities of the company’s...

LMAO the jig is up. It was a stealth marketing piece for Bose but you were too smart and figured it out. Of course the accompanying YouTube video where we dissed them for not being audiophile must have really put the whole endeavor over the top. Now if only I could actually get them to pay us...

The Yamaha CX-A5200 os the best 11.2CH processor on the market at under $4k. Build quality is stellar and manual PEQ with web editor is invaluable.

Yes and plan on going to the storage in the next week or so. PM me and we will figure it out. I mostly have tons of cables to get rid of.

Update from Monoprice: 1/10/19 !!! I just got an email from my contact at Monoprice. The HTP-1 will support Auro-3D. So for $4k you get a 16CH processor that supports all 3 immersive surround formats!
