    Subwoofer Connection Guide For A Multi Subwoofer System

    Please re-read the article as I did mention that configuration and even included illustrations. The ideal locations for 2 or 4 subs in a rectangular room are mid point along the side and front/back walls but its often difficult for people to place subs in these locations and people rarely have...

    Understood, but the brands I listed thus far have the highest success rate of inclusion immediately. We are working on other brands in the future, but we want to limit the selection of brands to the most appealing to our readers.

    Subwoofer Connection Guide For A Multi Subwoofer System

    The sub will still get whatever signal the receiver is sending it but the input to the sub will be about 6dB lower than it would if you had a y-splitter going into the sub. Some manufacturers recommend the y-splitter to increase the input gain at the sub since it sums the L + R inputs. In most...

    Is Emotiva the ReIncarnation of Mondial Designs?

    Very interesting analogy. I was good friends with one of the founders of Acurus/Aragon (Tony Federici) who sadly passed away a few years ago. He was a straight up guy that despised BS and nonsense and was interested only in offering quality products without the fluff. Dan Laufman from Emotiva...

    What Cable Gauge Do I Need for my Speakers?

    The monster is likely 12AWG so it will work just fine. You don't have to match wire gauge, just use 12AWG or less and you will be ok.

    What Cable Gauge Do I Need for my Speakers?

    Don't use 18AWG speaker cable. You have all of this nice equipment, why skimp on a few bucks? Get some decent 10 or 12AWG cables and you will be good to go.

    Audioholics Special: 25% off MB Quart Speakers

    That's a real good question and one I brought up with the MB Quart rep. The speakers look very nice and we are eager to review them but IMO their subs are priced so far out of the market for the USA that they will be a tough sale.

    Pizza and wings, :rolleyes: You need to goto a superbowl party hosted by Colombians. We are talking 20 course meals, giant pots of soup that has been cooking all day long, lots of liquor and plenty of beautiful women. Though, there isn't much football watching at these events which is fine...

    EMP ECA-4 & ECA-44 Compact Satellite Speaker System Review

    Are you saying you want to run only LCR's but no surrounds at all or you already have surrounds that you wish to use with these? It depends on what speakers you already have but as long as you add at least 1 sub, you will achieve satisfactory sound. Two subs, properly placed will of course...

    Yamaha RXV1800B Vs AVR-2808CI

    Both receivers are great in this category. But, I'd lean a bit towards the Denon just b/c of the Audyssey correction system which can make a significant difference in your setup. Check my review of the AVR-2308CI as a reference. That being said the Onkyo TX-SR805 is another top contender...
