JVC DLA-X570R 4K e-Shift4 Projector Review
If the calibration meter faces the projector, aren't all the settings incorrect for the different screens? Figured it would skew the results - especially for grey screens. Or does it simply not matter as much as I'm thinking?

Anthem ARC Room EQ Interview with Dr. Peter Schuck and Nick Platsis
Thanks for the follow up! I was hesitant to use ARC with the electrostats and mirage "omnipolar" mixed system I have, but now I will get to it.

Anthem ARC Room EQ Interview with Dr. Peter Schuck and Nick Platsis
Fantastic article series! Will Anthem work for other kinds of speakers - like mirage "omnipolar" or dipole / electrostatic speakers? Or because of the different dispersion pattern, is it better to leave it off for non-conventional speakers? On a side note not to do with ARC itself, the Anthem...

Tip of the Day: Apply Bass Management to Achieve Better System Performance
How much power saved? "By transferring the power robbing, low frequency load off of your speakers to the dedicated powered subwoofer, you reduce their workload as well as that of your receiver/amplifier." Any way to quanify the amount of power saved for a typical bookshelf or tower speaker...

Aperion Audio Bravus II 12D Subwoofer Review
Rythmik F12 How about a comparison to the Rythmik F12. Similar price, size, and more importantly, the F12 is one of the few small subwoofers that claim to reach that low. Can't decide between the two based on specs without a shootout!

Atlantic Technology SB-900DF Downfiring Subwoofer Preview
Why shouldn't you place the sub behind a sofa? With a normal crossover of 80hz, it wouldn't be directional and you'd be able to turn down the volume if it were close to you thereby getting less distortion from especially the tinier subwoofers like this. Or am I missing something?

Emotiva XMC-1 Processor Preview
TACT compared to Audyssey is going to be very interesting. Now if only audioholics would get in an anthem mrx with ARC, we'd have the biggest / bestest / most affordable room correction showdown available. Then we'd know where to spend our money.

Optoma HD33 3D Projector Video Review
Good review... now compare it to the comparable Epson 3010 and tell us which one to buy. Also, you need to tell us what kind of screen you used to get those great black levels - did you need / would this be a good candidate for a high contrast grey, especially in 3D?

1) System 1 - want it to come with speakers and be ready to go. 2) Not too interested - not right now anyhow, not messing with wireless until it proves itself worthy. 3) In the bedroom - would be nice to have a second setup there.
