    XTZ S2 "Almost" Atmos Height Speaker Preview

    XTZ Sound has just added a dedicated height speaker to their venerable Cinema lineup. They are calling it their S2 height speaker butit has NO “Atmos” moniker. That’s because XTZ didn’t swallow the blue pill and instead opted out of payong the licensing fee to Dolby to use their name. Instead...

    RBH Sound Owner's Thread

    I think it will be called an SV-8500 tower though.

    RBH Sound Owner's Thread

    The 8T has (4) 6in mids while their new modular SV tower has (3) 8" mids. Roughly the same cone area but totally different design and purpose. The 8T's have wider dispersion than the new modular tower with AMT. Both have similar output capabilities from my understanding but the 8T's do it...

    No the larger SV tower will prob be just like the 6500 on top but with 3 8"s for the bass section.

    The 8in middriver is only in their new modular tower that features the AMT. There won't be a Scan Speaker tweeter upgrade for that product.

    Mark Levinson № 536 Monobloc Power Amplifier Preview

    Yea I too wonder how many audiophiles these days can still associate with the name. I'd rather see it positioned as Harman/Kardon to bring authority back to that name which was legendary a few decades ago.

    Mark Levinson № 536 Monobloc Power Amplifier Preview

    Mark Levinson announced the № 536 Monaural Power Amplifier at CES 2015. This is a completely new design from the ground up from their new engineering facility NOT a joint effort with ATI like previous designs. The No. 536 is slated to deliver 400W into 8 Ohms, 800W into 4 Ohms, and stable into...

    I'm switching to Bose

    The Levinson system in my Lexus IS350F is uninspiring. Anytime you shove mids on the doors by the floor and tweeters in the dash with a 3" fullrange mid for the center, you've got a recipe for mediocre sound. Krell in Acura isn't that much better either. Big names, not delivering big...

    CES 2015 AV Electronics, Speakers & Gadgets Technology Highlights

    The SV line uses the Vifa tweeter and regular RBH alum woofers that the SX line uses. They will be offering a hot rod SV upgrade to scan speak tweet and Status phase plug drivers on the mids as far as my understanding. A SV6500/R vs SX-6300/R would be a very interesting comparison but it seems...

    Which brand makes the best quality loudspeakers?

    While I like much of what he was saying, I agree Car Audio can NEVER be as good as the best home audio for the very reasons you are saying. You can't get the noise floor low enough, nor can you get as good positioning and separation of the speakers. Still, I have heard car systems rival most...

    Andy I said it before and I'll say it again. You are insane! A certifiable Audioholic. I love all the JBL Control 1's. I still have a pair of restored Pro III's laying around. I'm kinda a admirer of vintage JBL since my first true love was a pair of LX-44's I worked all summer of my junior...
