If I am not mistaken, the NRC does their measurements in an anechoic chamber. Mark esentially mimicked an anechoic response in his room by doing a combination of nearfield measurements and scaling them appropriately to get the right output. This will be part of our new loudspeaker measurement...

I understand it wasn't you that did it. Find out the gauge of the cord (ie. 12 or 14 AWG) and buy an OEM replacement. Even Home Depot will do.

NO! I can't believe consumers sometimes. You lifted the safety ground. If you build up any static electricity and touch the chassis, you can get shocked which can be fatal to a little one. Replace that cord immediately with a 3 prong one, especially if the manufacturer warrants it use for...

NO. Use the stock power cord and replace it only if it is broken or not long enough for your application. If you replace it, make sure you use the same gauge cord or lower. Thats it!

He has been banned and in the future we will pre-qualify people's complaints before getting involved again. Lesson learned.

Yamaha RX-V2600 Review Who luvs ya ;)

No its called misrepresentation by the person who started the thread. It turned out he bought a used unit, shipped it over seas, modified it and then it caught fire. We didn't hear all the facts correctly from him. Now that we know both sides of the story, the situation is closed.

Too big, it has to be 52" or less. Samsung expressed an interest in sending their new 50" 1080p DLP display. I am looking into what is available from other manufacturers before I commit.

These were not prototypes. They were first production runs. Without knowing the conditions AV123 made their measurement, we cannot comment on the 5Hz difference with ours. Either way, you need a sub with these speakers and I would personally cross them over at 80Hz.

Update: Due to the poor reliability issues I have been facing with the new Mitsubishi WD-52628, and the inability for them to resolve it in a timely manner, I am currently looking for an alternative Display for System 2 of the Audioholics Showcase. Stay tuned...

that isn't a bad system though IMO the Meridian are no match for the RBH speakers and I would pick the Denon AVR-5805 over the Meridian gear for a variety of reasons. In addition, yout proposed system doesn't cater to a whole house solution with speakers in every room and requires more...

It's silly to think the average person buying speakers would be able to buy enough units to get price breaks like you mention. The point of the comment was to show how much $$$ are actually in the product as opposed to most speakers that have higher profit margins and lesser components at this...

Racer; Did you connect your source to the zone2 via analog or digital? Check your OSD and make sure you properly assigned the input type. I should have my 5805 up and running again in early April and along with a series of followup tests and articles for Audyssey, and upgrades to the 5805.

Hmm, we have been in business now for over 7 years and currently have the industries largest reader base so I don't think this is a likely scenario. Legitimate manufacturers align themselves with us because they know we give thorough and sometimes brutally honest reviews. If the manufacturer...

Amen to that my friend. If enough of you bug Polk to have us review their products, they may eventually contact us. We've seen them at trade shows in the past but they didn't seem overly eager for online publication press. :confused:

Actually its sometimes more than that since most amps power transformers will saturate when trying to deliver so much power. Efficiency also drops as speaker impedance drops making it even more difficult to deliver that much stated power continuously. 40% efficiency may be for when the amp is...

Huh? You have it backwards my friend. If an amp is 40% efficient, then it will have to consume 2500 watts to deliver 200wpc x 5 ALL channels driven. Since the typical wall outlet will deliver a max of 15A or 1800watts, you are 700watts shy. Even a 20A line will be 100 watts shy. This also...
