    Help. Need 2 channel amp - Toslink in and L+R+sub out

    I wasn't aware that any receivers had the ability to do high pass filtering into any main channel. I would love to send only 120 hz and above to the orbs. The sub has a crossover that I could set to 120. It seems you are correct and using 2 out of 5 or 7 channels would not be horrible if I...

    Help. Need 2 channel amp - Toslink in and L+R+sub out

    Grrrr... The HK is pricey and the only thing it has over the others is Toslink. I'm wondering if I could get an inexpensive DAC and use it to make the transfer to analog then use a receiver that lacks it.

    Help. Need 2 channel amp - Toslink in and L+R+sub out

    I'm sure the satellites are "crossed over" by default given their size. Orb audio doesn't recommend or feel the need to block bass frequencies going to the satellites. So I really just need a receiver with two channels, no bass management just line level out, and a toslink input. Amazon...

    Help. Need 2 channel amp - Toslink in and L+R+sub out

    I will look closer at the HK. To go for a 7.1 and use 2 channels seems silly, no? I definitely don't need bass management. Just line level out. The sub has a crossover.

    Help. Need 2 channel amp - Toslink in and L+R+sub out

    I'm pretty confident I just need line level pass through for the sub - no pre crossing over. That should simplify things. The sub definitely has an adjustable cross built in. I'm going to assume that a receiver with optical input still has line level pass through even though it's really not...

    Help. Need 2 channel amp - Toslink in and L+R+sub out

    Sorry, semantically Amp and Receiver are not truly synonyms but I hope people figure out what I mean. I guess I am looking for a solution. If the unit came with a remote or some unneeded bells and whistles they would just go unused. But the current crop of stuff out there is all multichannel...

    Help. Need 2 channel amp - Toslink in and L+R+sub out

    Hello, I just bought a set of Orb Audio Classic Two's with the larger 10 inch sub woofer. I plan on driving them 100% from the mini toslink output on an Apple Airport Express. The satellites are driven directly by the amp and the sub woofer is powered and needs RCA line level. (after all the...

    I wonder if Sarah MacLachlan is into subwoofers?

    Maybe she was a Telarc fan back in the day!

    Placing magnets close to equipment ???

    Speakers are probably the most powerful magnets in the whole system anyway.

    Putting together an audio system that the wife approves of - she would love the whole system to be invisible. I had to get rid of my B&W's because they were "big and ugly".

    Best sounding speakers you have ever listen to..

    Had a boss when I was in college who had a set of custom handmade speakers that were powered by McIntosh. Definitely had a laxative effect to the bass.
