I had some troubles with my first review sample so this delayed my schedule considerably. I am actually writing up the review as we speak and if all goes well, it should be online in 2 weeks. To give you a sneak peek, here are some preliminary power measurements: Power tested...

Alternatively if you want to spend around $2k on separates, consider the Emotiva Reference Theater Series: http://emotiva.com/products.html It has a nice meaty amp (similar to the MPS-1 but non modular and slightly less power). Although it doesn't have all the latest features of say a...

I never bothered to buy the old Star Trek movies on DVD before ST VI because I assumed the sound quality would be so poor. I always liked ST III b/c of Christopher Lloyd as Klingon. Regardless if there is actual bass sent to the center channel, you will likely benefit by setting the center...

Peter; I am curious, if one had a subwoofer that was linear beyond its 80Hz crossover point, and placed 2 or 4 of them in the room to smooth out bass response, do you think the MBM product would still be needed? I have found it beneficial to set Satellite speakers to full range (assuming...

Hmm. You really need to tame the room acoustics first before applying EQ. Can you add some insulated drapery over your windows and glass doors? Perhaps add more furniture, bookcases, etc? Any chance to do some ceiling treatment in a nice pattern to compliment the room decor? Try to be in...

Yes kinda like Slashdot does. Read my lips, we will NEVER charge to read editorial content! The forums will remain largely unchanged. As for the side banners on the site, these are on every page NOT just the homepage. You will have a text zoom option which will eliminate them.

Read post #41. For a small annual fee this becomes a moot issue while you also receive other great benefits soon to be announced.

We noticed this issue on computers using Windows XP SP#1. We suggest updating your windows with the required security enhancements of SP#2 and let us know what happens. thanks.

It is kinda a "unique" product that I am not sure I fully understand yet. All I can gather is they are using the bandwidth limited sub for higher frequency modal control but I could be wrong. We will eventually arrange for a review when we get caught up on other projects.

Advertisers come and go on our site and we almost always maintain excellent relations with all of them thereafter unless of course they somehow offer a faulty product or service to our readers, which was NEVER the case with SVS. SVS is entitled to their side of the story and you’ve already...

In the near future, we will be offering Membership services that make many of those side banners dissapear (among other things) so you can get a LARGER view of the actual content. Stay tuned..

Well I think I am the only staff member of Audioholics that is such a Genesis Fan, but since I am the owner, my vote carries considerably more weight than the rest of the Audioholics staff :D

If you have a box sub with 20” walls or s^3 = 8,000in^3 and want the same volume in a cylinder sub: Let’s say the cylinder was 16” in diameter, then the length would have to be: V = pi*r^2*h 8000 = 3.14(8^2)*h => h = 40” The panel resonance of a 20” box sub is: ¼ * 1100 / 1.667 = 165...

Sure about as free as a coke bottle or pipe organ :rolleyes: No t-shirt for you now sheep :D

Cylinders have to be rather large to yield equivalent volume of a box product. You also have to take great care in adequately bracing these products (moreso IMO) than a box product of equivalent volume. Cosmetically, I think boxes blend in a room better (personal preference). That being...

Map; It was a joke and you came off very offensively while also violating our forum rules about questioning our intent or ethics. http://forums.audioholics.com/forums/faq.php If you spend anytime on our site you will discover two things: 1. we have no vested interest in any music band...

You're obviously a newbie and NOT familiar with this site to make such a moronic statement. :rolleyes: Could it be I interviewed Steve Hackett because I am: a huge Genesis fan had the opportunity consider it 1 step closer to interviewing the current band before they tour over the summer

I'd stick to box subs over cylinders if you can accommodate the box. Also keep in mind BIGGER isn't always better. It takes a lot of good engineering to make a high performance sub in a smaller enclosure. HSU does a great job of this and Velodyne perhaps best exemplifies this with their DD...

Its gonna be extremely tough to match the performance of the HSU sub you are looking at for this price class. I'd either wait for the sub, or expect to spend a little more coin for an alternative like the Axiom EP350 Note the EP350 has the same driver as the EP500 and EP600. It just...
