    B&W CM1 Review

    As I stated before its not feasible to have all products come to my facility for testing and we have many reviewers that are NOT Florida based. I don't have the time or desire to have every product we review come to my facility for measurements. We are working on training some of our key...

    B&W CM1 Review

    The date in the headers on the top of each page is wrong. Always go by the date on the main review table summary on page 1. Its a great idea. Then I can fly each of our reviews from all around the world to our facility each time they wish to conduct a review. :D What you propose is...

    would this be a good start

    If you can add another sub at the rear of the room, it would do wonders to smooth out bass response in the listening area. It doesn't have to be as big as the one upfront but you should choose one that has similar bass extension.

    Pioneer VSX-82TXS Receiver Review

    Unfortunately we don't have a history with Elite receivers, at least I dont since the mid 90s with their products. So I cannot intelligently answer that. From this time forward we plan on covering each generation receiver from them like we do with Yamaha and Denon so we can answer questions...

    Pioneer VSX-82TXS Receiver Review

    The only way to be certain if the value it finds for subwoofer distance is to measure how well the sub integrates with the other speakers, particularly the mains and center channel. If your sub is 5ft away from your listening position and your mains are 15ft away, yet the receiver thinks the...

    Pioneer VSX-82TXS Receiver Review

    It depends if the subwoofer has DSP processing or if you cannot defeat its LPF. The only auto cal system I have tested to date that accurately determines subwoofer distance is Audyssey. In fact, its smart enough to calculate an average distance if you have more than 1 sub connected to the...

    VidaBox Slim Media Center Review

    Reducing background noise in a high performance home theater room is as important to audiophile as reducing light pollution in the room for videophiles. Most video experts encase projectors in their own transparent enclosures to minimize noise and many of the newer projectors are quieter than...

    Axiom vs. RBH Speakers

    Onkyo vs Yamaha vs Harmon Kardon

    What a bunch of nonsense this is, especially since Denon and Yamaha are producing more powerful receivers than HK at the same price points, along with more features, and better reliability. This is one of the reasons Circuit City dumped HK in favor of Denon.

    First Impressions on B&K AVR507

    You may want to consider a Denon AVR-2807 or Yamaha RX-V1700 as a pre/pro with an external 7CH amp such as an Emotiva MPS-1. This will get you better processing, better dac's and a better amp section for roughly the same price. The disadvantage is you now have two boxes instead of one but as...

    Genesis Reunion

    I heard the same thing about 2008, but I guess it depends on their success next year. Their Ray Wilson CD was a big mistake. It had potential if they didn't bubble gum it too much. The drumming was so simplistic and sterile which I heard is how Rutherford and Banks wanted it. I love those...

    SVS SB12-Plus Subwoofer Review

    No as Jaxvon correctly points out. It does however double the capacitive load and halve the impedance but the former is usually very low and the latter is usually very high so its a non issue for any competently designed receiver or processor. I have 4 subs run off a single subwoofer output of...
