There is now a version for stereo for about $500. My main gripe, apart from the cost ($500 is still a lot for me) is you can't use the output to make an AU plugin. I'd prefer that to their obligatory convolver. I'm currently playing with a trial version of Dirac and Fuzzmeasure3. I used this...

Thanks. It's the Microvee, BTW. The Orbs + Rel to my ears always sound better than Orbs + Rel + stereo microvee, regardless of what combination I've tried. I think you are right, that the only really good way to do what I want is with a full-sized set of L/R speakers. (I have a separate...

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I am married.

Let me try to explain it this way: I want to use the two microvees as a stereo pair, essentially to fill in lower-frequency midrange. The "proper" way to do what I want is to use the Left and Right speaker-level input on each of the subs, respectively, and connect those to the receiver L and R...

I've got a Marantz NR-1402 5.1 receiver, which I currently have set up with five orb speakers and a Rel subwoofer. I would like to use the L and R pre-outs with two small Velodyne microvee subs to supplement the L and R channels. However, no signal seems to come out the L and R pre-out...

I have a NR1402 in my main room (which is big, and has a cathedral ceiling). I have a separate two-channel system for music, but for this, with 5 orb speakers and a Rel sub, it performs remarkably well, far beyond my hopes and expectations. I was really shocked by how good it is, especially...

Question 1: What are the most important features to you in a subwoofer? Choose all that apply: Dedicated LFE Input High Level/Speaker Level Inputs Other -- Describe: High-quality sound, Class D amp, energy-saving auto-off Question 2: What comes to mind when you hear the name SVS? A...

Sorry for what is probably a basic question, but I can't seem to find an answer. If I buy an HDMI-capable projector that can handle 720p, will I be able to project protected rented movies and TV shows via Apple TV2?

Well, I haven't burned down the house. This works better than I could have hoped for.

nice summary As a newcomer to home theatre, I think this is pitched at a reasonable level. I realize this has to be limited in scope, but a couple of points I wish it had touched on, because they caused me some degree of problems or confusion, are the following: 1. Many people want to hook...

Thanks for all the input. I appreciate it. I think I will go ahead and try it with a 5.1 receiver, and if the house doesn't burn down, will have a nice post-hoc justification for my Rel impulse purchase. In case it is not obvious, I don't know anything about home theatre.

I saw that, but it is assuming you are using the same amp, not a different one. As long as that doesn't matter, I guess it is worth the experiment...

This is likely a stupid question, sorry, but I'm not sure where to find this out. I have a two-channel audio system that is separate from my TV/DVD/etc. I just bought a Rel R-218 subwoofer for the audio system, and have it connected at speaker level to my amp. I currently have a very...
