The 2600 is a class leading product and is the best amp section Yamaha put into a receiver for under $2k since I could remember. I am glad they continually improve amp quality with each new generation and listen to criticisms in our reviews, other press and installers. This is a company that...

Please be patient until Mark Sanfilipo and I can publish a full test report of the Audyssey system. I am waiting on speakers which should be here in the next 30-45 days. Basically what I am saying is below 100Hz you will most likely achieve more accurate and predictable results with: 1)...

Welcome to the wonderful world of Audioholics where upgrading and spending money never ends :) You don't have to have a separate EQ for each sub. Running both subs in mono off a single PEQ like the Velodyne SMS-1 or AV123 Rdes will do the trick nicely. Check out our review of the...

Audyssey doesn't have a lot of resolution below 100Hz so a sub with a built in PEQ will be far more flexible. Realize EQing a sub will flatten a primary seated area and do almost nothing beneficial for other seated areas. This is why employing 2 subs is even better at smoothing out modal...

I wonder if this partly explains my experience with Toshiba DLP displays: http://forums.audioholics.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22776

RE: Audyssey When I first tested Audyssey on my 5805 it didn't do anything below 100Hz. It was later confirmed there was an implementation problem on the 5805 and thus a new firmware was released to fix it. I received the new firmware right before moving and didn't have adequate time to...

Haha agreed. Everytime I reflect on my favorite all time rock drum or guitar solos, I almost always come back to Genesis. Steve Hackett on guitar is a rarity in rock, especially today when the market is flooded with 2 chord rock. Phil/Chester put out incredible drum duets during the...

Nobody said the speakers "suck". I guess you shouldn't draw that conclusion based on the fact that a $200 (Elara) pair of speakers isn't up to the performance standards of a $460 (Axiom M22) pair of speakers. And I can understand the potential for confusion. To be fair - it's the reader that...

I am not surprised at this either. I originally got a Mitsubishi 1080p 52" DLP display that died after 1 month usage. Thus I switched to Toshiba. I also have a Sceptre 37" 1080p LCD that won't sync up properly with the OSD of my receiver. I am a bit annoyed by the lack of QC and...

You should probably do a more thorough read. :rolleyes:

A few weeks ago I purchased a Toshiba MX195 1080p DLP Display. I was most impressed with the picture and sound quality and thought I found a killer display for my family room system. Two weeks later, the fan noise became unbearably loud while a high frequency switching power supply noise could...

Only if we ship the unit to my facility. Right now I am crammed with work so it won't likely happen anytime soon. However I predict the amp will have a high output impedance, and high distortion compared to solid state amps. You don't buy this amp for accuracy, you buy it for the sound of a...

Yea when Clint gets back in town, I will have him replace it with a color graphic. This was a temp graphic till then and I liked it so I went with it for now.

John; what about your atom smasher? :D Brian is taking a sabbatical for a week for violating our forum rules in another thread.

I have both but I am not cheap ;) You may wish to ping Jneutron as he is extremely well versed in these matters and can even connect your cables to his atom smasher :D As for measuring squarewaves in a cable, that is complete bunk. See the following post...

Yes that is true. We are looking forward to checking out the new loudspeakers from AV123. We were most impressed with their little $200/pr x-ls speakers and feel they are one of the best values on the market right now.
